Fanboy? Yes. Uneducated? Hardly

Yes I know that Apple got their inspiration from others, but BE HONEST. Any mp3 player in an iPod. Am I right? Who created the market, and then used that market to open iTunes? Yes Xerox may have invented the GUI, but didn't do anything with it, and now teeters near bankruptcy. Palm may have invented the smartphone, but is gone. Apple is the most valuable company in the world. All smartphones are iPhones, and all tablets are iPads. All of the other companies wait to see Apple prove a market for some clever idea, then jump in with cheap imitations.

All that may be true, there are MANY people out here that have not much money, and so for THEM, the "Cheap Imitations" will be the best that they can hope for. If ma oeya lora Yawnetu and I change our priorities, we could afford the 500 dollar apiece and up iPads, but we prefer our antique aircraft, and paying cash as we go, building our Hanger Home. We are the lucky ones, for US it is a CHOICE, now imagine the divorced mother of two with two minimum wage jobs, and no credit. If she is LUCKY, she can scrape together the money over six months to get hooked to the net for certain necessities that used to be available offline that no longer are. I realize the above is an extreme case, but there ARE such people, and for them, the "Cheap Imitations" are a Godsend. There is a definite need for them in today's economy.

Anyone who's willing to spend $500 on an iPad needs help.

Iphones are archaic, overpriced, have two ****ty carriers, and holds a charge as well as a piece of wool.

Ipads are over priced, can't play flash, and beyond that perform the exact same tasks as an iphone, except for the phone part. And they cost more.


Terrible company. Terrible and overpriced products. Amazing marketing team that could probably convince the world that shooting themselves in the head provides healthy cranial ventilation.

That looks like Ney'tiri just put a poison arrowhead through the heart of the iPads Chief of Design.

Funny, you talk about my bias, yet ignore your own. Hypocrite. And insult me as uneducated. Physician, heal thyself.
Since you and I both own computers, I'm sure we share many of the same problems, like having to weekly update our anti-virus software... oh wait, no I don't.
Ans of course we both have the problems of some hinky bit of software causing windows to hang, forcing a quit, and a reboot... oh wait, no I don't.
And eventually, as all peecees do, it will eventually collapse into a fatal blue screen of death, and die...oh wait, not it won't.
Ever.

So just continue to dog the most valued company in the world, the one who can't get any more of the tablet market, because they literally cannot make any more fast enough.
I'm sure they heard your every word.

I never called you uneducated.

You like to get pretty dramatic about this stuff, eh?

If you don't keep anti-virus updated you're pretty retarded.


http://mashable.com/2012/06/25/apple...ot-virus-free/

The reason Apple didn't have any viruses was because nobody ****ing used them for years. Now that everybody and their grandmother has been brainwashed into the apple cult, guess what, hackers are now targeting apple users over windows! Because its easier to steal personal data from stupid people!



My PC won't collapse into a BSOD, because I can upgrade it! Its not permanently sealed in a ****ing heat trap of a plastic shell like apple products.


GGNORE
