I love how Michael always tries to hide his apple fanboiness by qualifying it as insider industry knowledge.

I bet he has a poster of Steve Jobs above his bed

Man you guys are morons. How much experience do you have with different laptop manufacturers? Have you worked in deployments of hardware and analysed the failure rates and reliability? Do you actually know the specifications, or do you just look at the brochure and think more GHz is better? It's always people that don't actually know what they are talking about that have these stupid biases.

i bought a laptop same time my old dear bought hipster book.

hers has been replaced twice, f**k knows how many screens and keyboards and hard drives.

mine has had the ram and hardrive upgraded.

all in 2 years.

i download the nastiest f**king porn you cant even imagine from f**k hole virus filled websites.

she watches home and away and plays f**king facebook games.

keep your anal y sis. and your hardwaring.

ill take the pc please!

edit: mine cost less than half hers, and yes. i can play games on it.

expected response.

then why does everyone who switches to mac never go back?

because they realise they have spent close to 3 grand on a piece of shit laptop built for 5 year olds. but they've already told all their windows using friends how awesome it is, so if they go back to windows now they will look even more of a douche than the time they took some weird african woodwind instrument lessons to play at roderick and peppers love union ceremony.

haha just stop, you don't understand how hilarious you sound. Built for 5 year olds? You mean your cheap plastic laptop right? There's a reason it's half the price, because it's a piece of crap. There's no point arguing facts, because you obviously wouldn't understand the details.

I've deployed a dozen macbook air's in this office, they're great and dead simple for people to use which makes my life easier.

If it was more than 20, I'd move to windows and set everything up properly, because OS X deployments are a nightmare to manage for businesses.

The quality of the hardware is good, but the after sales support is meh... Can't just walk into a store, need to make an appointment, need to leave it to get checked out (and can't remove hard drives from the laptop first), need to wait for replacement parts to arrive, etc... Sorry, I can't have a user to be completely without a laptop for 2 weeks while it gets repaired.

Not usually a fan of Apple products as they like to only be compatible with their own shit... Guessing they still don't use Windows?

I like the look of them, they're nice to look at...

emts, where does Asus fall in your rankings?

I've had mine for years, dropped it on tiles from over a meter high... Cracked the screen casing but the screen itself was fine... Keyboard is partially detached but still works... Only the touch pad stopped working but I use a wireless mouse anyway so no loss..

It gets moved around a lot too so ssd is probably a good thing to have, having said that my normal one is still working after being moved around daily and being dropped...

This ^ HP are the WORST laptops, never seen so many problems.

Asus are decent IMO Dezz, I used to use one for study and dad has one its been fine for a few years now.

We use Dells at work, they're also pretty good we have a lot out there and rarely get them back with issues - you might want to wait for a Dell sale to come up if you were thinking Dell though.

You're definitely lucky if you've dropped it a few times / move it often and the hard drive is still working.. always first point of failure. Get SSD for sure on the next one

not used Asus, as they much more consumer than corprate, heard good things tho.

if you looking for a grunty system, esp if doing gaming, look at the alienware series from Dell.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
