Reading down through these Apple threads reminds me of something I experienced recently on a totally different topic.

Last year I was remodeling my kitchen. I found a Maytag Dishwasher I was considering buying, the price was good, and it had the features I wanted, steam cycle, food chopper, low noise, etc. But i wanted to find out more about it. So I decided to read a few reviews first.

I visited a few websitesl, and found a lot of 4 and 5 star reviews, overall most were very positive. But their are always a few of those only give 1 star, and a few nasty comments, so I decided I wanted to read a few of these.

There was one that was partiality negative, it was a 1 star, and when asked if the reviewer would recommend this product to their friends, the answer was a very resounding NO!!

As I began to read, (the reviewer was obviously a women), It was clear she was almost in tears as she was writing this. I was looking for the reason for such a low rating. Did it leave the dishes dirty, did it leak water al over the floor, was it hard to figure out, or did it break down a lot? None of these questions were answered. Instead her entire negative review was based on the fact she had bought the model with the Stainless Steal front, all of her kitchen appliances had the Stainless Steal fronts. But her single complaint for this unit, was that the Stainless finish didn’t match the Stainless finish of her other appliances. It appears the front of the dishwasher had a brushed finished and her other appliances had the polished finished. She was so distraught over this “imperfection” she couldn’t even invite her friends over to show off her new kitchen. It was just horrible to her that she spent all that money for such an ugly dishwasher!!

Well needless to say I tagged this “review” as ‘Not Helpful’.

I see the exact same thing on FR in the Apple topics. A few Freepers that absolutely hate Apple, Tim Cook, Steve Jobs, iPhone, etc and so on, people who have never owned a single Apple product join in on the conversation, just to sow hatred and discontent, they have NOTHING positive to say about a product they have NEVER owned. Just like this lady writing a very negative review about a product that wasn’t pretty enough for her kitchen.

Personally I could care less who Tim Cook is sleeping with, just like I could care less who these Apple Haters are sleeping with. If you don’t like Apple Products, DON”T BUY ANY, but don’t come into Apple thread to spew hatred, and lies.
