78. Something wrong with society maybe, but not with Apple. People camp out at toy stores at X-mas too.

That's not an Apple problem, it's an over emphasis on consumerism in general. It doesn't support the weirdo cult of claiming Apple products are unfairly perceived as good, or do well out of nefariously manipulative marketing. There's something really psycho about the anti-Apple rants out there. No one leaps all over a new Sony product, or the Sony chairman, whomever they might be, claiming its overpriced garbage in a tarted up case, only bought by clueless, technologically impaired slaves to marketing hype, or that the company's CEO is a mock-turtleneck wearing bogeyman.

:evilgrin:

That's a special kind of nuts.
