How a Greenwich CT firm became 100% Mac. Posted: 07 Oct 2011 05:41 AM PDT When Belpointe Asset Management launched I went out and bought 6 PCs. I’d always used Macs but unfortunately in 2007 the financial world was 100% PC. At the time my staff had only used PCs and so I assumed the need to support them on PCs would be minimal. Boy was I wrong. Normal usage... Hey, I Have Got An Idea. Let's Start Telling The Truth About Steve Jobs .... Steve Jobs didn’t give money to charity. And when he became Apple’s CEO, he stopped all of their philanthropic programs. He wanted to wait until they were profitable. Now, they are profitable, and sitting on $76 Billion in cash, and still no corporate philanthropy. Steve Jobs lied to Steve Wozniak When they made Breakout for Atari, Wozniak and Jobs were going to split the pay 50-50. Atari gave Jobs $5000 to do the job. He told Wozniak he got $700 so Wozniak took home $350. Steve Jobs denied paternity on his first child, lying that he was sterile. The poor mother had to initially raise the kid using welfare checks. Welfare that you helped pay for with your tax dollars.
John: - Look there's Tom with his new iPad. What's an Apple Fanboy?Jack: - He has AFS... John: - What? Jack: - Apple Fanboy Syndrome.. John: - Oh yeah he's an ignorant Apple Fanboy! Tom: - Look guys I've got the iPad!!!!!!! ;))))) :))))) Jack: - Does it have Flash? or Multitask? Tom: - Look I can flick through pictures with my fingers!!!!!!! A person who fits at least one of the following: 1. only knows how to use a Mac and cannot handle a PC, gets very frustrated using one. 2. thinks that Macs' hardware are much better (although statistically their failure rates are not that different than other laptops). 3. over exaggerate his/her passion for Mac products. e.g. I *need* an iPad to read my newspaper and magazines. 4. uses Apple as a status symbol. 5. buys a new Mac product without knowing the prominent features. e.g. GPS and FaceTime in iPhone 4. 6. thinks he/she is technologically savvy but actually knows very little about technology e.g. does not know the difference between 3G and EDGE, 3G versus Wi-fi. 7. Owns many Mac products and is very proud of it. 8. Feels entitled to get a new Mac product on launch day and get unreasonably angry when failing to do so. 9. Has absolutely no idea what open source is. 10. Thinks that the new features that Apple introduces are ground-breaking even though they had been available for years. e.g. 3G, multitasking. 11. When their Apple products fail instead of admitting that Macs can fail sometimes just like PCs, focus on how amazing the experience of getting it replaced at the Genius Bar. 12. Although Macs are better than a PC in some areas (and vice versa), does not know any of the evidences; just *think* that Macs are better. 13. Feels special and cool to own a Mac product although it is no longer a cult to own a Mac product, unlike 10 years ago.
