Bimbo Talk

Al-kisah semalam, I pergi kedai Apple/Mac. I teringin lah tengok apa the hype semua ni. Yelah dulu kalau orang pakai Mac ni, pandangan komuniti IT ni, waooo ini mesti graphic designer tahap elite power gileeee. Tak silap diorang kata kalibrasi warna kalau buat kat Mac ni tepat.. power.. whateverlah. itu cerita dulu. masa I kecik-kecik dan tak paham. sekarang ni pon I bukan reti perihal graphic design ni pon. dulu guna barangan Apple ni mamat-mamat nerd aje pakai. Tapi lepas zaman aipon ni I tengok menjadi-jadi trend. semua nak beli aipon. lepas tu yang berduit tu kalau boleh buat assignment pun nak guna Mac. No more nerds. Low class pakai pc. Apple ni umpama lambang kasta masyarakat sekarang. OK. I fikir, Mac ni mesti ada keistimewaan. jadi I pon pergilah 'usha' dengan harapan I akan jumpa sesuatu yang spesel. Something unique.

I terus cari notebook dia. Of course lah term notebook tu so disgusting for them. Takde kelas. So nama dia "Macbook". I tengok yang Macbook Air. Tak silap spec-nya lebih rendah dari Macbook Pro. I tengok harga -- adalah RM3.8k+. Homaigod. ini mesti legend. I pon belek spec.

"256 GB flash storage"

Mmm...ok. Agak kecik untuk modern personal computing. Tapi I paham, flash storage ni bukan macam storage biasa. Kalau terhentak kurang sikit risiko rosak sebab u know, takde mechanical parts macam conventional hard disk. And it's blazingly fast. Just like flash drive. Or non-techies suke panggil "pendrive/thumbdrive". I doubt zombie-zombie yang worship Apple ni tau benda ni, but at least their money was not wasted.

"Memory upgradable to 8GB"

Ha? Abis tu asalnya apa? 4GB? Really? For this price tag? 4GB ni boleh kata paling rendah untuk notebook (PC) zaman sekarang. What...

Takpe. I cari pulak processor dia. They must have something up their sleeves. Well dulu tak silap they all guna Motorola. Barulah rare. Apa barang Intel dan AMD. Low class. They must have something. MUST. Something better than a measly and puny Intel. I sedapkan diri.

"1.3GHz Intel Core i5"

"What the fuck is this?" terhambur perkataan tu dari mulut I. I jeling I nampak sales person tu menggetap-getap gigi. I know, I just insulted his religion. I mean, his product. but, really...? Then we are only paying for the brand and what... "OS stability"? Maybe, sebab U know virus tends to attack the most used platforms, so logically they would attack a PC, not a Mac. "Mac tak ada virus".. Emm...ok still somehow true.

Lepas tu I terus blah. Already disgusted untuk tengok MacBook Pro. Dengan MacBook Air punya harga aje I boleh dapat decent gaming PC. really i tak boleh hadam why they still would want to buy that. Ahh maybe sebab software dia kot. well I know they have some great creative media softwares. But still in terms of hardware, you could get half the price for any PC notebook. worth it just for the software? Nah. It's the status actually. The caste.

Dalam perjalanan keluar, I ternampak aipon5s. THE REAL CHARM. the Goddess of Swag. I bet kalau zaman Yunani sudah ada aipon, mereka akan replace Dewi Aphrodite dengan aipon. I pon senyum. I datang dekat. I wonder knapa nampak kecil. Oh mungkin frame dia yg besar buat mata I tertipu. I tengok size.

"4 inch".

Hah?! What?! Sekarang semua high end phone guna at least 4.5 inch, they dare to call this abomination a "high end"? Even Galaxy S4 pon 5 inci. I perati lagi. Kenapa malap aje skrin dia ni. Well u know even mid range phone sekarang pon ada skrin yang cantik dan terang, apa lagi high end. Sharp and bright. High definition color. Idk zaman bila punya high-definition they all jadikan basis.

Dalam keadaan marah tu, sekali lagi I terkeluar "all these are bullshit" sambil cebek-cebek muka dan geleng kepala.

I nampak customer lain semua senyum kambing. i know what they were thinking :

"This boy can't afford an iPhone. What a pity. LOL so poor."

"Well fuck you too iFag!" I terus jerit sambil blah.
