My new laptop is a Samsung
Authored by: Gringo_ on Tuesday, November 20 2012 @ 11:00 AM EST

I overheard a salesman telling another customer not to buy Apple products because of Apple v. Samsung, and explaining about rounded corners. They wanted a tablet and were diverted from buying Apple.

That is amazing and wonderful! I have told people that myself, but I am not a salesman.

My new laptop is a Samsung
Authored by: hAckz0r on Tuesday, November 20 2012 @ 12:17 PM EST
Same here. New Samsung phone, new MP3 player so that I could retire my failing iPod. I specifically want to buy Samsung just to spite Apple, even though I generally prefer to buy American when I can. It certainly doesn't hurt that Samsung is a great product either.

Next I want to retire my perfectly good iPad so I am not seen by my coworkers as advertising *anything* Apple. But I can't find a high-end Android tablet with both cellular & WiFi service, like my iPad has. I would not hesitate to buy the Galaxy TAB, but it has no cellular. Any advise?

In the mean time I'm just placing a Not! sticker (red circle with the red bar through it) over the iPad's embedded Apple logo, and another full not-apple-logo sticker on the top cover, just to make it perfectly obvious that I am ANTI-Apple even though I am stuck using one for now. I'm really looking forward to getting rid of this last Apple tainted product despite it being a perfectly good machine. So much so that I often day-dream about video taping a skeet shooing of it, just see how well it flies, and then posting it on Youtube. But then my better senses kick in, as I would never do that to the environment. I guess it will just have to join my ancient Sony equipment, and instead gather dust until I find a need to brush it off again in an emergency. I hate carrying this thing around.
