There are plenty of exceptions to that rule.

I don't think it was really meant towards you though simple. It's just how people are. Apple spends a lot of money marketing through media and the like and many people do use them just to be trendy. It happens with everything though and not just computers. Just look at all the losers in their H2's for example.
I like what works for me, and while Apple has made strides they just limit me too much. The ipad in it's own right is a great device, but is still too limited in it's ability for it's price and what it does. The iphone is just not an option for me on many levels and I don't like being restricted to what software I use like Apple OS does.
