Man, poor guy got completely fucked at the Apple store. They sold him
the overclocked model, and he said he had some pretty high pressure
sale to get a 3 year Apple Service plan and that stupid Mobile Me
crap.

He wanted 4 GB, so he got ripped off an additional $200.00 for the
extra 2 gig of ram, which they didn't even install for him. So
essentially he paid 200.00 for 2GB of RAM. LOL Poor guy.

It's only 75.00 for 4GB of higher speed ram.

I didn't have the heart to tell how bad he got ripped off. Now he has
2x1GB of ram that are worthless.


Anyway so I unwrap it and go install the memory for him. In order to
do that you have flip the thing on the face of the monitor!!! Yes, you
heard that right. Then you have to unscrew the worlds smallest most
frustrating screw ever. Then... get this. To get the old memory out
you have to tug on some paper tabs to get the memory out. What fun it
was to try and get a grip on that.

Then after the memory was installed I unwrapped it and set it up on
his desk. I couldn't even run the cords under the desk because the
cheap bastards at Apple give you..... an 11" usb cable for the mouse
and keyboard. 11 fucking inches. Basically the keyboard can't move
more than a few inches from the monitory. Cheap bastards. I'm sure the
Mactards love it and will say it's 10'.

How can anyone justify buying these turds of a machine????!??

Let's just count the falsehoods, shall we?


1. "smallest most frustrating screw ever": utter nonsense.

2. "paper tabs": more complete bull***.

3. "an 11" usb cable for the mouse and keyboard. 11 fucking inches."
more bull.
