Daniel Jalkut on Apple’s Price-Paid-to-Satisfaction Ratio

Daniel Jalkut, who is disappointed in the noise defects of his $2000 MacBook Pro and $2500 Power Mac, but pleased as pie with his two iPods:

Seems the more money I give Apple, the less satisfied I am. The two most expensive products listed above are the two that have caused me the most grief. Shouldn’t Apple be making customers of its $2500 products as giddy as customers of its $200 ones?

I have to say, the only Apple product I’ve purchased in recent years which I consider nearly perfect is my $99 iPod Shuffle.
