About James and Mactelligent. Insanely Smart. James has been an avid Apple fan since childhood when hos mother brought home the original Macintosh. He decided right there and then that this was beautiful, elegant, easy to use, fun, and the future. From that very day I dreamed of working for Apple. He eventually realized this goal and even went on to work for Steve Jobs' other company Pixar.

At Mactelligent we believe that Apple is not just a brand. It is a lifestyle. The device we choose — be it a laptop, an iPhone, or an iPad — helps us to organize our lives, express our creativity, connect with others, have fun, and get things done. We love this lifestyle and its values, and communicate it in a simple phrase:

Macteliigent. Insanely Smart.
