As far as apple is concerned, I have only ever bought their ipods. I do not know enough about the company to intentionally avoid buying its products as some of you do, though.

I develop software. Of all the OSes, Apple has the best documentation. Their "pay us money for everything" model is highly annoying.
On the upside, you do get premium service.
My iPhone cable was busted from it's weak strain relief design – I went to the Apple store, complained and they simply exchanged the busted cable with a new one at no charge.
Any other store would've told me to go pound sand or make me prove it was their fault.

You misunderstand. They want
our country to be polluted like China. Well not really, but if it helps profits, screw the environment.

Didn't you hear, Cthulhu? America is a Christian nation.

He could have ended with a rhetorical flourish: "If you don't fucking like it, sell your Apple stock."
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
