I wonder what Apple’s sales are like in Germany?

Ditto what Tim Danton said.

My brother currently wants a 60 inch plasma tv, but the mark-up compared to a 50 inch (which he already has) is ridiculous. He earns a massive wage, so can afford it if he wants without any problem, but doesn’t value it as highly as the current asking price. He doesn’t care about brand, just the best product for the job, at a reasonable price.

I think they always try and define a little too much – eg detailing income in Techno Leader and Rational is too simple. I’ll pay for quality if the product’s right but I won’t pay money just for the sake of a badge, and I’ve been the same throughout my working life – it hasn’t mattered what income I’m on at the time.

I notice the first four categories are male and the last two female. There are some categories missing. Altogether a useless analysis.

Yip, I’m a mixture of the first four!

The trouble with these market segmentation categories is that you can easily end up finding yourself ticking more than one box. Or perhaps they need a new category for me: Techno Nutter.
