i took my powerbook finnally to get the latch fixed. (the button kept sticking so it wouldnt catch the lid)
i took it to compusa because they are authorized Apple warranty fixer uppers. and they sent it off and are getting it fixed and im just waiting to get it back. all this is free of charge of course.
anyways,
i go in the other day to check if my laptop is back and the stupid compusa tech support people have me waiting forever. in the meantime:
theres this very old looking man. about upper 60's lower 70's it seems. and he walking around the counter and such, and out comes the tech support people with a huge box with a vaio desktop on the side of it.
i cringe
this man, this inocent, harworking american man who has worked his *** off for years and years.
he doesnt seem happy, more of a proud look though. with his american flag hat on and tucked in yellow polo.
his wife, an old looking woman herself is ecstatic, while she holds a large box that says "movie creator. i look at it and it has pictures of DVD cases and labels and such inside.
im thinking to myself: no, this cant be happening. this man deserves so much better. the problems, the spam, the virusses, the warrantys, the endless ammounts of programs that do the same exact thing. NO, DO NOT BUY THIS COMPUTER!!!
i wanted to just go and tell him "put this back, get an imac, and thank me later."
i got watery eyed, seriously, i feel so sorry for the old people of america who get succored into buy crap that just gives them more and more crap.
my own father was once this way, before i showed him a better way, to Think Different.
