Denying yourself something you want because you're afraid people will think you're too concerned with image would also be weak. You're damned if you do, and you're damned if you don't. My advice is to steal a broken iPad 2. Confusing people is your only hope.
Charles, I was pointing out that it is weak to buy something if YOU feel that it makes YOU cool. As I've said on this forum in the past; there is a huge "cool factor" (predominantly amongst's the younger generation) with apple products (among other things), but there are others that don't fall into this category-Peter et.at.
