Apple is the greatest marketing company in the world.
They took a commodity created by Chinese children for 200$ and sell it for 1200 in the west as a status symbol.
They even psy-opped people into thinking having a green bubble (android phone) makes you poor.
Greatness marketing company ever.
Right up there with De-beers..
They pride themselves on the "Apple ecosystem" which is just seamless transition between all your I devices.
But you could do the same things with Samsung for a lower cost.
They market the macbook as a device for people who buck the trend as if you're a revolutionary for buying a laptop from a multi-billion dollar company.
Let me know if I missed anything.
