The issue for me was always that however much the hardware would cost, you couldn't buy Mac OS X for a non-Apple computer and Mac OS X is what makes all the difference. You can get pretty damn close with Ubuntu, though. In fact, if I had to switch to Ubuntu I wouldn't mind it. The only difference is that it lacks the little bit of polish that makes OSX so great, but they improve that more and more each year. So, I'm much worse than a Mac fanboy. I'm a Mac/Unix fanboy. Ha.

It's like the older Mercedes cars. They're totally over-engineered so we never have to worry about anything. It creates peace of mind. Every rough edge and detail is buffed to a high sheen. People are always telling me "Oh man, Macs are so expensive though!" What? In the 80's maybe. How much did you just spend on that shitty plastic PC laptop that will die in 2 years, that fan cooler stand thingy, your antivirus, busted USB hard drives, down time from viruses/blue screen of death etc. DOUBLE! My brother and I used to even fight about MAC vs PC. His classic argument was: "Macs are for stupid people". Well guess who's saving up for a Mac as we speak? Hahahaha! I even managed to convert my mom (that was a nightmare) but she can't believe how much better her work life is now. There just aren't any more excuses. It's obvious other peoples' definition of expensive and mine are WAAAAAY different. LOL You gotta love a bit of the 'ol Mac fanboy ranting...

Bentley Wed, 10 Mar 2010 01:29:27 +0000 http://wageslaverebel.com/?p=781#comment-1598 "Business Model" is a really broad term and it all really overlaps. I don't think I explained it as eloquently as Scott Fox did in his book Internet Riches but this post is really just a reiteration of some of his ideas (which he does a much better job of explaining.) It does all fall together quite a bit, especially when you get into niches, but it's broken down this way because it represents the commercial evolution of the internet. We moved from a wave of successful efficiency businesses (Yahoo!) to product businesses (Amazon) to niche businesses (ProBlogger, etc.) “Business Model” is a really broad term and it all really overlaps.
