      I didn’t mean specifically apple, but that’s what this article is about. The point still stands why fix it when people still buy it. Chill out, sounds like I hit a nerve.

      Diehard loyalty isn’t something exclusive to Apple. Don’t try and make it seems so.

      no it’s just the one with the highest markup for brand loyalty (aka: stupid tax)

      Apple has probably the best marketing in the world. Part of that marketing success means that Apple is better at bedazzling people and making a product appealing beyond just its practical use. There’s anything wrong with Apple users, but Apple is definitely better at commodity fetishism than any other company I can think of.
