It makes one look foolish to argue Macs are overpriced because you can't afford one.

Or you can afford one and just value your dollar more.

Jobs could sell and knew how to work the media

You don't have to have a good product to be a good salesman...

You're implying some sort of similar relationship between Jobs and Apple products? Try another because if you are, you're so off-base it's ridiculous.
Perhaps you're confusing major PC brand name sellers? Where there is NO consistency, ZERO quality control and every single part and process geared towards cheap?
I have three older Ford pickups rusting away when "Quality is Job One" so I understand the sentiment of your comment.

I've been in the field as long as both Jobs and Gates. I sell and fix PCs for a living, but at home I use Macs. When I do servers and webwork I use Linux.
It makes one look foolish to argue Macs are overpriced because you can't afford one.

Meh, Steve Jobs net worth is 8.3 billion
Bill Gates net worth is 56 billion.

You tell me.

"The introduction of video, on an MP3 player? That hadn't been done before."

Wrong. Archos Jukebox and Creative Zen did it first.

Yet another reason why I stopped caring for Apple products - incompatibility with so much of everything else. I like connecting with 100% of the world, not just the Apple part of it.
