Fuck Apple. Overpriced shitty products that I'll never buy again. Even if they didn't go to robots, I'd still hate them.

 

$1000 for a 1.3 GHz computer? Hah, good one. Love to see the justification for this from apple fanboys

 

Edit: I am interested to see what Apple does in response to this. They'll probably just hide this though, act like their workers are treated perfectly

XD. I'm a long time Apple, user. But don't tell me about it, I'm tired of their BS (and it's not only their BS in the tech industry).

Just a small correction. GHz don't matter all that much. What matters is the IPC (Instructions Per Clock). One of the reasons current 3GHz Intel CPU's are faster then 4.2GHz CPU's from AMD atm.

Good point. However, dear god are the new macbooks slow. I would get a macbook if the 1000+ dollar macbooks were only good for light browsing.
