    What has happened to PC laptops?

    My biggest problem is not really that there is a lack of high resolution screens available on PC computers (I can find a good handful of 1920x1080 laptops and the lack of 1200 doesnt bother me as much, since its an improvement already on most of my laptops). My biggest problem is that the...

    What has happened to PC laptops?

    As an informed shopper as most enthusiasts are here on Hardforum, we can make better choices than most of the consumers out there. But it doesn't hurt to admit that we too, delve into what appear to be mainstream/sheep like ways and enjoy a taste of design. Personally, I am excited over the...

    What has happened to PC laptops?

    I think the worst thing about taking a Apple vs. everyone war is that everyone is so adamant about function over form and saying that you are wasting money on Apple's design. Design is of course, to everyone's own opinion and nobody should be shoving your own opinion down on what you should...

    No good affordable flatscreen on the market?

    Agreed. And having a 16:9 monitor dead center of the my triple displays with dual 16:10 makes me feel like I would rather have the extra pixels for more information. But this speaks to my own preferences and I don't see a reason why somebody needs to debate why I should like something more than...

    The new cream of the crop?

    definitely, I liked that analogy. Now I would be curious where the other OSs would fit in?

    Watching this iOS vs. android debate is so exciting.

    Top phones of 2011 will just be iPhone5 and Nexus-3.0

    Definitely. Given Windows Phone's progress though, I am not so certain how quickly it actually would take over. I am looking forward to Nokia/WP models, as I have always been a huge fan of the Nokia hardware but absolutely hated the Symbian OS.

    Top phones of 2011 will just be iPhone5 and Nexus-3.0

    As a Blackberry fanboy, I have to admit I feel pretty excited about the upcoming Blackberry Bold Touch, but given Blackberry's shortcomings, it is kind of sad that the smartphones to look forward to in 2011 don't include Blackberry at all, unless you are a diehard user.

    The new cream of the crop?

    Sorry, I wasn't trying to be aggressive in tone. I just wanted to say that there's no reason to bash Apple products users. That's it. As noted before, I am not trying to say that Apple is a better product than others. It does its job and that's it. Does it mean that I am an iSheep because I...

    The new cream of the crop?

    My friend working at the Apple store in our local mall would replace the phone even if there was water damage, as long as their story seemed to hold up. He only held back when the customer was belligerent about it. Granted, its possible that people could take advantage of his nicety but I bet a...

    The new cream of the crop?

    My point wasn't to sell Apple as the best in quality. I've been through enough Apple products to know that it isn't perfect. I have also been through enough of other brands to know that it isn't the worst either. What I was trying to say was that one person's needs are not necessarily...

    The new cream of the crop?

    I have very little installed on my G4. Its use is only for work. I guess what I was trying to get at here, was that everyone has a reason why they chose a particular brand and that there is no need to bash somebody in because they like it. Being a fan of a brand doesn't necessitate others to be...

    The new cream of the crop?

    And if we are going to use stories to back up our claims, let me say this against your claim that "they do not make better products." I have an iBook G4 that I bought in 2004. Seven years later, I have switched through several laptops just for kicks, and guess which one still works? There are...

    The new cream of the crop?

    Probably the part about the lies. Do you assume every Mac user is a blatant idiot that passively consumes everything the media throws at him/her? I am very curious how you managed to classify 90% of the population as "Sheeple" who had no idea what they were purchasing and absolutely no...

    The Loudness War - Beat It, Join It, What Do You Do?

    I guess in this case, I do care that there is a loss of dynamic range, but would you stop listening to your favorite artists because that of the current trend in mastering the music? I don't like it, but I am still going to listen to my favorite artists because I like their music, and I am not...
