Are you happy with your Mac or iPad? Join the club—and by that, I mean those customers surveyed by the American Customer Satisfaction Index (ACSI), which gave Apple a score of 86 out of 100 in this year’s review, giving the company its highest score to date.

Apple, which is judged within the computer category, has consistently ranked the highest of any hardware manufacturer surveyed for the last seven years. This year saw the company jump two points to its all-time highest score—which also happens to be the new ACSI industry-high for computer electronics—and puts a nine-point gap between Apple and its nearest competitors (Dell, Acer, and HP, all tied at 77). The overall satisfaction score for personal computers hit an industry high, too, climbing four points to 78.

I'll bite.

Attributed to the ipad? I'm surprised people even remember that after the iphone 4 came out.

I've Completely Ditched My iPad For the iPhone 4

Oh yeah, brb need to print something...

Being · 09-21-2010, 04:03 PM

true that. iphone 4 is legit. i fucking hate my andriod, pos compared to my old iphone (3g)

A computer that can't print is like a cell phone that can't make calls.

Oh wait...

maszac · 09-21-2010, 04:12 PM

they never surveyed me.

Being · 09-21-2010, 04:34 PM

what, are you saying the ipad can't print?
not sure what you are getting at

Kompressor · 09-21-2010, 04:35 PM

Yes, because it can't.

PrintCentral App says it can, but it's options are very limited, they prefer you use the app to move your prints to a real comp to print anything.

"It's all just nigga technology anyway. And don't get all uppity callin' me a racist and shit, cause I don't mean nigga in a disrespectful way, just as a general term for ignant muthafuckers. Anybody of ANY race can be an ignant muthafucker... Nigga technology is anything that doesn't plug into a printer. Know why? Cause niggas never have anything to print."

the iAnything can suck my remaining testicle.

ive heard nothing but good things about it from Kindle owners

Kompressor · 09-21-2010, 05:06 PM

Kindles are fine, they have great readability and are pretty cheap.

Though personally nothing can top a good book.

double qft. ereaders just take that warm feeling away.

granted maybe you want to read a favorite publication or a more scientific book, but for a good novel nothing beats paper

Parallax · 09-21-2010, 05:47 PM

the electronic readers are pretty useful if you're too lazy to go to the library or too poor to buy books.
