I never understood those people. I worked in an office of people that were PC devotees. Any mention of the good aspects of Mac sent them off the deep end. In the meantime we sit and wait on fixes for our PCs, which takes half of IT staff weeks at times. I have had an iphone since 2007, with upgrades. They hold onto their droids. It's never about politics, social issues...it's like an irrational belief system....and let me say, they are all Republicans!! LOL
