I had a friend in college who had a forbidden microwave in their dorm room.
They had a set of rabbit-ear antennae on the top - instant TV (back then.)
Yes and no. In hindsight I exaggerated in my initial post when I said that I was buying it puely because of the logo, this is not true - there definitely are other features and factors that are influencing my decision making.
What I probably should have said is that a prominantly placed permanant logo that is affects the aesthetics of a given product and I consider that when weighing up what to buy if it’s something that I’m going to have see frequently or on a product that might be seen to be reflect back on my personal taste.
Regarding the story of your mates and their $2.5K Mac - you’re right, they might look down at me for having a Windows machine and other people will see me and have different opinions about me and my set up based upon their personal experiences too. I guess what matters to me, is whether I feel like I’m representing myself in a way I feel proud of.
I think that’s something that will vary from person to person, some people will care, others won’t even consider it.
Ah that clarifies it - thanks.
