Product Worship Tattoos: Apple Vs. Harley-Davidson

05/15/2007

Who makes the biggest statement when it comes to inking the product you love on your body forever? The hardcore geeks take on the hardcore bikers in a Product Worship Tattoo ink-off: Apple vs. Harley-Davidson.


Here is an example of the classic logo tattoo. We know you've been using Mac since the days of Oregon Trial, but Harley has been around since 1903. When Grampa got his first tattoo on shore leave, it certainly didn't make you think of glossy blue buttons.

Location is important and the upper arm is a popular one. Helps accentuate those guns you've been working on. The only problem is if you sport a Harley tat, your guns are most likely flappin' in the breeze.

Color? Not for some guys. If you want to to show your dark side, go black.

When you need more space to express yourself, it's time to go big on the back. Why would you want to see the tattoo you just sat through and paid for? You know it's there.

Do these dudes have tramp stamps? I know the one on the right is a dude for sure... I hope.

The ladies get in the mix with a little tramp stamp action. Nothing says "I'm EASY to talk to" like a little ink down below.

You might want to throw the name on there... you wouldn't want to risk someone not recognizing the logo. This tattoo is synonymous with sleeveless shirts. Hey buddy, nice armpit hair.

Some props for what makes it run. If Microsoft made motorcycles just about everyone would own one and nobody would be happy about it.

Nothing says "Do Not Disturb" like the addition of a blade. FACT: Exactly zero of the Hell's Angels have Mac tattoos.

Go tribal. This sounded like a good idea at the time. What could be better than a brand tattoo multiplied by the coolness of tribal?

I couldn't find anyone with a broken down Harley tattoo to match this Mac error one. So I thought, where could I find a tattoo that illustrates a product in failure...
BONUS: a video of the only Windows Vista Fanboy in existence receiving a vista logo tattoo.

And the winner is... APPLE by over 14 million USD.

Mac is ok, if your a developer, graphics designer, web admin, etc. Otherwise your wasting your money. No wonder not many companies make programs for mac. I've had mac, and yes there nice looking. Other then that I've had more problems with mac in the 4 months that I owned one then I have had with any windows in the past 14 years.

To Nelson76, just because you didn't know how to use your mac doesn't make them bad... I've had mine for four years and had to fix my PC about ten times, for every one time fixing my mac.
And I have less hope for Vista, seeing as how all my clients that have it seem to need the drive re-imaged every three weeks.
I *heart* my Macs!

There's one thing PC users can do that Mac users can't - They can SHUT THE FUCK UP!

Is Vista a lifestyle? or even Window's for that matter? I used to get asked about my 'Thrasher' (skateboard mag) tattoo all the time: "What are you going to do when you're 80 and you wanna go to the beach?" .... hmm - go there?! lol .... but seriously - VISTA? wow - I can see the love/hate mac/pc thing going on but honestly I don't care enough one way or the other .... I just wish Commodore was still going ;) lol .... well hell - maybe I'll get a commodore tattoo! \m/

Cashcleaner-They can? You can't! None of the other Pro-PC people above can. Hypocrites, and copycats. I hate to be the one to say this, but a computer is just a computer. If it works for you, great. It's not a lifestyle, nor is it a contest to win. Get over it.

Overweight underpowered and loud, just like their poser owners.

Mac is doesn't get virus' because people are too lazy to make them when 90% of the industry is PC. NOT SUPERIOR VIRUS PROTECTION. And as many problems as there are with PCs, at least we can play games on them. You can't upload jack shit on a mac. That's not to say that I'm not laughing in the face of windows for being stupid enough to essentially copy mac in creating Vista. Oh and to the person that said " just because you didn't know how to use your mac doesn't make them bad.", isn't the mac interface ridiculously easy to understand? Isn't it impossible to screw up your apple from sheer stupidity? Point in Case my friends. Point in Case.

Macs are only good when they're using their own stuff and installed properly. Personally, I'd go with PC because I haven't met anyone who could make a mac functional (However, the tattoos are funny, I love the error signs!).

sport bike rider... you're a stupid punk. Stop pretending like you know everything and admit you are a dumbass! First, there is much more to riding than going fast. Second, you don't have the balls to walk into a real Harley bar and spout your little mouth off so you have to do it here. You know you'd piss your pants if you seen a biker club riding down the road towards you. Your little rice burner couldn't go fast enough then, could it.?
