[citation][nom]eklipz330[/nom]i think those were cheap shots for the most part. im not an apple fan, and i dont like their closed system with little to no customization. that's the reason i don't like apple products. i do think they look fantastic, and when it comes to performance, they have the best mobile devices according to benchmarks [barring the new lackluster ipad mini, seriously gimped]. too bad you can't do much with the performance, especially on their laptops and desktops.i think any other reason is borderline fanboyish. you can argue that theyre a bad company with bad morals and blah blah, but the bottom line is, 98% of the corporations out there do exactly that. and you buy from those companies anyway. apple just mastered profiting from it. i bet google does some skeptical stuff too. even if they dont, they still buy chips from samsung, which is king of evil. don't even get me started on the precious gems market, and oil as well. apple is the lesser of evils, and theyre just in the spotlight, which grants them more haters. unfortunate for them. end rant.[/citation]
That "king of evil" has just invested a few billion in fab factory in Texas. Go figure who opens more jobs in the US, Apple (the king of outsourcing) or that "king of evil".
