Re: I knew there was a reason
Or maybe it's because they make good products... not the BEST, but good products.
People have to make a reason for EVERYTHING =.=

Re: I knew there was a reason
It's also similar to a religion in the sense that the "unbelievers", for whatever reason, always feel like it's their duty to wage a holy war on Apple

As a rational, middle ground user of some of Apple's products, I always feel like I'm sandwiched between the fanatics who condemn me every time I utter a single phrase of criticism and the haters who won't be satisfied unless if I renounce everything Apple has ever done.

Re: I knew there was a reason
As mentioned earlier, this is just asking to be flamebait, and was also posted earlier, so I'll lock it prematurely

But thank you to those of you who posted thoughtful comments--there inevitably will be fanboys for everything, and with them, just-as-devout anti-fanboys. Best thing to do is to take the reasonable middle ground.
