    I would've bought a Macintosh even without
the student discount.

“The first time I saw a Macintosh, I was immediately
hooked. It’s a work of art. I saw the student
pricing and my next move was obvious: get one.
“Some other computers are cheaper, but they're
a pain to learn, and working on them can be
a grueling experience. List year, a friend
bought another kind of computer against
my advice and has used it for maybe 15
hours.What a waste.
“Macintosh, on the other hand, is a logical
extension of the mind. It lets you concentrate on
what's in your paper, not on how to get it on
paper. You can create professional-looking
documents in minutes, and you lose the fear of
learning new programs because the)’ all work
in the same way
"Once you've worked with a Macintosh,
there's no turning back"
Why do people love Macintosh?
Ask them.
