Confession of a Mac Mini buyer


Confession of a Mac Mini buyer 03/14/2005 04:34 PM

Some people have been asking me why I am so pissed off at Apple for taking the webloggers to court to find out who spilled the beans on their product plan.

Well one of those websites was the primary reason I purchased the Mac Mini. I have used Windows based PC's for years and had slowly started getting interested in the Mac from friends, and things I was reading on the net, and at one of the sites being sued. At the time I was thinking, great a low end Mac that I can experiment with and if I like it maybe I will go out and get a G5.

So tonight my phone rings and it is a Apple survey firm and they ask for 15 minutes of my time to ask questions about the Mini. I asked do I get to make a comment at the end of the survey and she said yes.

So I took 15 minutes of my time and answered everything honestly and when she asked for my comments I asked how much space she had to type. She said all I wanted.

So in very straight forward language I told the same story I am telling you now, with a greater amount of detail.

Does not Apple realize that they have started to destroy what they hold so precious "their dedicated users". Mac users are fanatical and love to talk and evangelize their products, but I wonder if many people will be stop buzzing their products or predictions on products. The Apple management obviously does not get it.

I stood in line to get a Mac Mini for 7 hours the first day it was released and got machine #7 if memory serves me correct, here in Honolulu. Primarily because a website run by a Mac supporter turned me on to something that a die hard windows user thought was pretty cool.

So what do I do, take it out in the street and drive over it in protest? No I am sure the wife would beat me down but guess how long it's gonna be before I buy a G5 (a cold day in hell). Apple I am so disappointed in you!

theodp writes "Pssst, wanna make $10? It's yours if you go to Google Answers before Jan. 7 and identify who's behind JGR Acquisition, the mysterious company that paid $15.5M to acquire key Web Services patents at a Commerce One liquidation auction. Thus far, posters have correctly pegged recently-registered Delaware firm JGR Acquisition as the buyer (confirmed by this SEC filing). JGR's registered DE agent shares the same phone number and address as the law firm of Morris, Nichols, Arsht & Tunnell, whose representative client list is headed by Amazon.com and also includes AT&T, Citibank and CyberCash.
