There's a lot of instances with this; Alienware, Apple, 4K TV's, Curved TV's
People need to stop getting jealous. I can give good reasons to buy everything I listed.
1.) Alienware R13/13 Is one of the best gaming laptops on the market, For $999 the design, power and customization is worth it.
2.) Apple (Macs/Iphone) First, They're not That overpriced. You can buy 4-6gb RAM Mac's for 800 dollars, even though their main power is in CPU,With a core I5. (Good for Streaming,LIGHT gaming Like roblox, And overall school work.) iPhone's are really just the highest quality phone's you can buy. People need to chill with Hate on Apple, I'd estimate that 80% of their buyers are students who need a good CPU, You can't do a lot of school work on a Gaming computer.
3.) 4K TV's are amazing for viewing, But 66' 4K TV's are pretty pricy, If you're a movie buff/TV show buff, Or heck using it for gaming, They're amazing.
4.) Curved TV's are AMAZING. There are no bad viewing angles no matter where you sit, It's a good viewing angle, They are expsensive but if you have a large family, GET THEM. |

I don't hate things I can't afford I don't hate macs either, what I don't like about them is that you are restricted and can't access administrator functions of your computer (for example command prompt) to fix things when it requires that technical direct command |

"Apple (Macs/Iphone) First, They're not That overpriced."
Yes they are.
"You can buy 4-6gb RAM Mac's for 800 dollars, even though their main power is in CPU,With a core I5."
You can get a cheaper Windows laptop with a Core i7 processor.
"iPhone's are really just the highest quality phone's you can buy."
There are some better Android phones that aren't advertised or marketed much.
"People need to chill with Hate on Apple, I'd estimate that 80% of their buyers are students who need a good CPU, You can't do a lot of school work on a Gaming computer."
You can, though. It depends on which one you get.
Do I look like I could intimidate a jury? I couldn't intimidate a child - and believe me, I've tried. |

Alienware is awful but the rest of these things are fine
Curved TV's seem interesting but I've never actually seen one, not even at a store

Your argument proves my point! You focused on one thing to defend your hate on.

But I provided more stuff. You're just cherry picking.

Oh, I thought you meant me (referring to your first reply)

Atleast you provided arguments most people I talked to who use low-end PC's (400-450 price range, NOT custom) Have even less of an idea of computers and just simply say "I hate apple" and if you talk to them they say "They're just overpriced!"
I own a Mac and previously an Alienware, they were both real good.
Got the mac because my mom recommended it, it's last a while.
I hired some guy to give it 8gb of ram, Core I7 and leave everything else the same, it's a beast now. It was only like 150, Which is like a 950 total for my computer. |

| I honestly don't really have true hatred to any of these technologies, but the curved TV is irksome, it just seems annoying watching an old movie and having it slightly curved when I'm viewing it. |

I'm not going to get into the specifics of this argument but go over generalized behavior.
Why do people hate on what they can't have? Why? Why do they?
It's called "Crabs in bucket" mentality. Basically once people perceive you as being better or having better, they have to drag you down to their level or worse.
It's why it's occasionally recommended to ditch your overweight, friends and family when you want to maintain permanent weight loss. They'll keep pushing you to go back to old habits of being overweight. I even heard of storied of the person attempting to lose weight getting skinny-shamed and harrassed by his/her overweight friends
This isn't 2007 |

But it's true: Many people spend even when they know they should not, believing they will catch up on debt or figure it out somehow. Make it work. As Carl Sword, a New York psychoanalyst, tells WSJ, "There's a lot of peer pressure in our society to spend." Not to mention the way we're inundated with ad campaigns, videos, TV shows and movies filled with alluring products and aspirational lifestyles.

I don't know how so many people can't afford apple devices. My family's crawling with apple devices and we're under the poverty line normally. (Not right now, though. But usually yes. We are NOT living in poverty...)

@anaj People can afford them by working for 2 weeks at DC minimum wage part time.
The people who say they're overpriced are usually 17-12 year old's who just repeat what their favorite youtubers say. |

"Alienware R13/13 Is one of the best gaming laptops on the market, For $999 the design, power and customization is worth it." where does the hate come from and when there is better, people will go for better
"Apple (Macs/Iphone) First, They're not That overpriced." mobile devices, maybe macs aren't worth it as much
"You can buy 4-6gb RAM Mac's for 800 dollars" isn't impressive considering other options
"Good for Streaming,LIGHT gaming Like roblox, And overall school work" streaming depends almost entirely on your internet even a cheap Lenovo can run games like roblox not seeing too much of a benefit as we have chromebooks and Linux
"You can't do a lot of school work on a Gaming computer" there aren't that many unix-exclusive programs and yes, maybe not a pc, but a laptop will do the same
"4K TV's are amazing for viewing" i can't see anybody denying that "If you're a movie buff/TV show buff, Or heck using it for gaming, They're amazing" can't think of many channels supporting 4k not many games support 4k either
"Curved TV's are AMAZING. There are no bad viewing angles no matter where you sit, It's a good viewing angle" can't argue with this "if you have a large family, GET THEM." key point here, they aren't worth it unless you have a large family or have people over often

the problem with apple is that their devices aren't overpriced, period they're overpriced for what their creation costs they're not worth the money
