So, in summary, what you're saying is that you buy computers on the basis of religion or belief, not on gear matching rationally developed and evaluated requirements.
Fine. It takes all sorts.
I will first wait for Apple to do whatever it is presently rumoured to do, then let that settle and get the problems ironed out, and then I'll see if it suits my needs. If not, I go elsewhere, simple. I don't see the point of getting all foamy in the mouth about something that may happen, and of which implementation and deployment are presently about as clear as a tear gassed Lafayette Park.
