    I prefer to think of the iPhone as a 1911...

    TLDR: Vendor lock in

    Ohh, just remembering Apple from the past. :) Fanboys always thought Apple was the greatest thing because the buttons looked like a piece of candy or that it had a brushed metal look. Like Chrome or Perterbilt is to this industry. Not that Windows was any better. Remember the Windows icon set after Win95? Looked like some bobble headed creation from Fisher Price. Like it needed to appear to be a non choke hazard or something safe for kids. Got nerf? The web was set back 7 Years beaus of Microsoft had the power of marketing even though they only had crap to offer. All they had to do was "baffle people with BS", have we heard that before? Bill didn't want competition or what was good for us, just what was good for him, Apple did the same thing.... It was never good for us, it was always about them.

    Apple and their one button mouse, plenty of jokes about what happened when you tried to right-click a Mac. I think the biggest thing is that you have to use things the way they want you to. And why? what did you pay for? They tried hard to prevent people from installing another OS on their hardware (non PC and PC alike), lookup Bootcamp. They developed proprietary cables that would only work with Apple. Why? Why should I buy something that only works for one thing? Is it for our interest, or theirs?

    I have bought from the Apple store, but I can only use it with Apple software... I would have been better off buying from Amazon (shudder) so i could use it more freely on whatever hardware OS software I'm using ATM.

    Was that the 2012 concert? It may have been recorded Live, but if you play it back 6 years later is it still "Live"? Sounds Awesome to me! Apple is the shizt!!!111

    If you like using it like they tell you to use it I don't have a problem with it. Some people like that kind of thing, it's a Dominatrix for me. ;) Certainly not Apple.

    I just wish people knew where they are.

    I wasn’t asking what you are a fan of. Spend your money how you like.

    That works. If you don't want my Dominatrix to visit you, then that's fine. I don't think you are an idiot for now wanting that, because maybe you know exactly what it might entail. But what if I told you it was all honey and no pain? What if a bunch of pain was hidden behind a pink tu-tu or maybe a moo-moo!

    You won't notice the moo-moo if we can dazzle you with something shiny. A moo-moo with sequins should do it.
