I do not dislike Apple products.
Let's face reality here - Apple revolutionized MP3 players and then revolutionized cell phones. It was seriously ground breaking stuff, changing the industry, and they did it while continuing to make computers and laptops.
The problem is with the people who use Apple products and their undying believe that Apple products is superior to anything else.
You can't argue about MP3 players, because no one even really makes them any more. And any cell phone can do what an iPod can do. (Although I do have an iTouch and took it to Europe with me. I keep it in my Jeep so I always have my music with me.)
Apple computers are not "better" than any other computers. Apple computers are just more expensive and not usually any faster. When I build my last computer, it would have cost about 1/3 more and still wouldn't have been as fast.
Then we have the iPhone. The iPhone is a phone, nothing more. It was once ground breaking, but it's pretty much been the same since it was launched. (You can argue this point about most phones really.) The difference is my phone can do everything your phone can, and more, and we already have smart watches.... And in the mean time the rest of us didn't suffer from reception problems, don't worry about cracked screens, and wasn't locked into AT&T in the early days which must be the worst cell company ever.
The best part is we don't wait in line for anything. I have the new Samsung Galaxy S5, but not because I "had to have it". It was just because my wife was upgrading her phone, the sales person who helped us is both a friend and sexy as hell and it only cost me $99 to upgrade.... Pretty much my new phone is exactly the same as my last one, just a slightly larger screen. They all run the same exact apps.
