Mass Production of Industrial Design

I know, it is sexy isn't it?  I mean anyone without a bias PC/mac opinion wants one.  The only problem is that this sucker costs a bare minimum of $2,000.00  And this is for the Macbook Pro with the lower standard hardware.  If you want the good stuff it is going to cost you upwards of 30 C notes.  I am extremely impressed with the design team at Apple because they continue to pop out sexier and sexier designs for all of their product line of gear from the Macbook Pro to the iPod to the newest iPhone.  I purchased a brand new laptop with better specs in every category than the Macboo Pro for just under $600.  This is less than a third of the price for mainly the same or better of a laptop running a different Operating System.  Sure you can say that your laptop wont get any viruses or is easier to use or whichever classic Mac argument you want, but when it comes down to it, mine will last me at least two years before it is useless, yours maybe 3 or 4? Maybe 5 if you are lucky!   I feel as if I am already underestimating the windows laptops, but still for the money, I will have 3 or 4 laptops when your 1 is dead and used up in a few years for the same amount of money.  Not to ramble on too much about the price of competitive brands, but I am really saying that the Apple design team has promoted such an appealing image of their product that they are selling like hotcakes.

Apple has been one of those companies that has really risen to the top in the last few years and not just for no reason.  They have allowed for their products to meet in a fair medium between form and content designing.  Their software is designed to make even the most complex computer tasks easier to handle with their simple OS.  They have many gadgets and doodads thrown about within their software simplifying the everyday tasks to make them easier and more efficient.  Not just their software design is sexy though.

The form of the Macbook Pros and even more specifically focused on form is their newer Macbook Air product line.  This is the thinnest laptop on the market and is even lighter than ever.  Apple has teamed up these sleek forms with content and packed a one, two punch.  To make it even more dominant, they created genius advertising!  Everyone knows Apple advertising because everyone has seen it.  It is everywhere, and it portrays the young and hip sporting their favorite Apple products.

Apple is most famous for their iPod advertisements which are a black silhouette of young adults frozen in the act of dancing with the different iPods in their ears, ready to get their groove on!
