I don't understand how it's so had for other companies to create something as beautiful and with the high quality as Apple products.

Why do people call a vacuum cleaner a "Hoover"? A PA system a "Tannoy"? A copier a "Xerox"? A personal music player a "Walkman"? Some items become synonymous with the brand that first launched them.

Who. The. ****. Cares.
Use whatever appeals and stop whinging like little girls with skinned knees. This **** is not complicated.

And also totally irrelevant.
All kinds of people believe in weird and wonderful stuff, and Steve Jobs was one of them. However, one of the final things he said is how much he regrets ignoring conventional medicine until it was too late. However, the beliefs of an individual as to how they treat their health has no impact on products - its not like Apple make you sign a document refusing medical treatment when you buy a MacBook.

This is one of those arguments that can't be resolved. And does seem to always end with some sort of slew of insults and intervention from a moderator.
On the plus side for bit-tech though, people are always googling Apple vs windows or pc vs mac, so we're doing our bit.

Basically. Let's move on to a less controversial argument. ATi or nVidia? Intel or AMD? XBox or PS3?

Intel and Nvidia are clearly the right choice and always have been.
Now PS3 vs XBox is a good one! |

In no way is this irrelevant.
Whenever you by any product you should consider the company as well as the product. Does it matter that Apple cracks down on any other company with an I in it's name? does it matter that they claim high ethical standards but only make reports without any actual action taken ? Not telling people that the battery of the Iphone could not be manually replaced until tree days after launch ? ($85.95 for a replacement by the way) exercises editorial control over mobile applications ? prohibiting cross-platform tools that would enable Flash, Java and other technologies? (anti competitive much ?) These are the reason for me not using apple products, I can understand that this does not matter to all, but it should be in the consideration at as many purchases possible. And while I do like a lot of the products and innovations they have/do make I cannot get myself to actively support them as long as I have a choice. Same reason I go for Pepsi in stead of coca cola

One very last thing before the thread possibly gets locked.
My biggest complaint about Apple's mobile products is expansion. Namely, the "dock connector". I understand the "simplicity" part of things, but there comes a point where you get so "simple" that "functional" is near impossible. "But it's universal!" Try hooking up your iPod Video video out cord or 1394 cable to your iPod Touch. Nope. Neither work. Even with the same physical (proprietary!) connector, Apple is changing its own standards!
