Everything in the quoted post is complete and utter BS. Nice try tho.Anecdotal at best but on the ground I'm not seeing this anti-apple thing at all. The iphone is almost synonymous with a smart phone. On the metro I'd say 90% are using apple products. The only place I really have seen a major difference is Africa where there seemed to be a vast majority running blackberries.
The only real place that I see Android products is with people buying their cheaper stuff. It's a small minority since people don't want to be seen as cheap. They get that bottom of the barrel phone plan and end up with a cheap phone instead of an iphone. Same thing with tablets. They get a cheap tablet like the Nexus 7. Very few people seem to be choosing an Android product at the same price point as Apple.
People just like to hate Apple. It's always been this way. Yet everyone is out there buying their products. The thing that Apple really has going for it besides being trendy is that you never hear about something going wrong with an iphone or an ipad unless someone breaks the screen. On the other I have friend's who have android phones and I can't hear them, it sounds like shit, the screen has weird sensitivity issues, if it's older it's slow as balls and can't play media content correctly, etc.

and the perpetually unsatisfied consumer cum former iPhone user who wants something different purely for the sake of different.
I know Android is selling, but who is buying these things and where the hell do they live?
The negativity surrounding APPL stems from the collusion of Streeters pumping and dumping the shit out of the shares, who, in reality, are all bullish on the company; they know how to feed the rumor mill with negativity to maximize their returns.

You'd be surprised, not having a big screen is turning out to be a bigger disaster than being exclusive to AT&T for so long.

I think (no joke) I've seen no more than 4 or 5 Android tablets in the past 2 years. I'm not saying they don't exist, but everyone seems to have an iPad.
In India the only iPhones I saw were in the hands of westerners.
At my current company + my family/friends, it's pretty much a fleet of iPhones with a few android phones thrown in the mix. I know 1 person with an MS phone, and zero people with BB phones (they all traded in for iPhones/Samsung phones)
I still have never seen an android tablet out in the wild that wasn't mine.
I will say, however, when contract renewal time comes around I'm dropping my iPhone for a Note2. When I do that, I'll probably also pick up an iPod or nano.

Dude, relax, it was meant as a joke. I couldn't give a shit what anyone uses. I'll edit my original post as I guess the joke didn't go over well.
They closed at $700/share on September 21st, 2012, when the iPhone 5 launched. Now they're at $400.Apple will be back on top when they have a new device. All eyes are in the s4 and the One for now.
