I have a passion for apple computers. I crave for these computers as I crave for hot chicks. I find the beauty of these computers appealing like the beauty of well-designed cars. These computers have impressed me so much that now I actually have developed an appreciation for art in addition to science. In the past, I was just fascinated by technology, but now I like look for more than technology, I also look for the inclusion of art or great design in tech. products.
I also love the simplicity incorporated in these products. Only what is truly essential is left on these computers. It is like as though these works of art have been created by chipping away all the non-essential components and leaving only the essential. The engineers at apple computer are like sculptors chipping away at what is not required and creating a masterpiece for a computer.
Let us take the Mac book pro for example. I find this machine to be the highest benchmark for good laptop design. This laptop is so full of features but still manages to be terribly simple and intuitive. With the Mac book pro in front of all I can think of is simplicity and ease of use. Steve Jobs is an evil genius. This man hates buttons and I can see his influence in the latest Mac book pro. I love the huge track pad on the new Mac book pro. There are no buttons! Can you believe that, no buttons but I can do everything. I can scroll, I can double click, I can navigate backward and forward in WebPages. The most amazing thing of all is that the huge track pad itself is a button so you can click that for a single click. This to me is like figuring out complex abstract physics theories and coming up with a break through theory that makes everything easy to do. This is one of those things, that after it has been achieved; it makes you wonder why no one else thought about it. No more ugly track pads with multiple buttons and a scroll area, just the beautiful glass track pad for me. Long live the Mac.
