If you don't value software freedom then why in hell are you on a
Linux mailing list? Are you just a freeloader? I don't care if their
UI is shiny, I won't buy a single product from Jobs & Co until they
stop bullying developers and partners.

As for "all Apple products" being awesome - I give you the iPad - a
big chunk of utterly pointless electronics. Jack of all trades, master
of none. Oh, plus Mac Cube, the entire last year of the PowerPC-based
Mac line, iLife.  However the biggest problem with Apple is their
attitude - and I think we all know where that comes from.
