A Protest Against "Macbook Pro"

[bobscliff]

I hate the name Macbook Pro. If i upgrade, i will refuse to call it MBP. I will call it Powerbook Core Duo. Or the Intelbook Pro. Or maybe just Powerbook G5. Any suggestions?

 

[NAG]

Highend Apple Portable Machine Ultra Edition.

 

[Mord]

It's a name, get over it.

 

[Prof.]

I like the name, "MacBook Pro". Tis sexy

 

[Abstract]

If you dare, call it a "laptop computer". Don't worry, I won't tell.

 

[Osarkon]

I'm going to agree with Mord on this one.

The name doesn't mean a thing. It's a computer.

 

[danidoll521]

You're the one that has to pay for it and use it, so call it whatever you want.

 

[ntrigue]

It's size 12 font below the screen. Who gives a fack?

 

[diehldun]

Is this thread a joke?

 

[ctt1wbw]

I just chuckled.

 

[MrSmith]

You'll want to know its sex before you name it.

That's better than MacBook Pro? Seriously?

 

[iMpathetic]

Just as long as you don't call it that to anyone who knows better, you'll be fine. Otherwise, they'll either think you're behind the times (or have an ultra-top-secret-very-hush-hush-test-model from Apple...)

I refuse to call mine a MacBook Pro too - I call it a GeorgeClooneyBook Core Duo

Whatever boats your float.. I've (seriously this time) got used to the name MacBook Pro.

 

[MLeepson]

It's a name, get over it.

I agree.

It's a Mac.
It's a notebook.
It's a pro machine.

 

[Krafty]

II will call it Powerbook Core Duo. Or the Intelbook Pro.

 

[TheBusDriver]

If you dare, call it a "laptop computer". Don't worry, I won't tell.

Or a "Labtop" haha I hate when people say that.

 

[tobefirst ⚽️]

The reason objects have names is so we can communicate with other people about them effectively. No one will have any idea what you're talking about.

 

[Don't panic]

you could call it Fred.

 

[iAthena]

What's the name have to do with anything?

 

[Abstract]

Jesus calls it the "Pr0n machine". He needs his pr0n because his father put all the ugly chicks in Bethlehem.

 

[alFR]

You're a bit late complaining, you do know the MBP came out, like, 2 years ago don't you?

 

[Plymouthbreezer]

A thought...You could just be like the loads of us that simply call their computers by their HD name. For example, my MBP is "Apollo," my iMac is "Flagship," and my G4 Tower is "Clockwork."

Yar.

 

[MacSamurai]

It's a notebook.
It's a pro machine.

It's grey.
It's made of aluminium.
