I agree. My main concern is that Apple manufactures in China. Samsung at least does it in Korea, HTC in Taiwan.

You would have to ask Swordmaker how big that list is.

The Apple list is approaching 700 members. However, not all of those own iPhones. Some own Apple computers, but Android phones. A LOT of Windows users own iPhones. Not all iPhone or Mac users are on the Apple Ping list.

> At 68 years of age, it’s safe to say that I know a lot of people. Those of the liberal persuasion prefer iPhones. Those who don’t hate America or themselves seem to prefer Android.

Sir, congratulations on your 68 years. I'm only 63, but I daresay I know a lot of people too.

In my opinion and experience, your observations are not only faulty, they're simply nonsense. Further your implication that iPhone users hate America is grossly unwarranted, not just because it's incorrect, which could be chalked up to the limited sample you observed, but because it's insulting to those of us who love America, are not liberals, and simply prefer to buy high quality products and are willing to pony up the extra cash for them.

Have a good evening, Sir, but pray, no more of your proclamations such as those above. IMO they're not worthy of this forum.

This guys antidotal statement is flawed.

Every muslim I see has an iphone. Especially the mullah types with the idiotic beards and dents in their foreheads. Only the best for the religion of piece. They buy them because they think iphones are magnets for white chicks.
