And quality is in the eye of the beholder. Ultimately it comes down to value, and that’s a judgment by the consumer, most of whom choose non-Apple products as having the best value.

You can't really believe that means anything about the products or the companies, right? It's only about price tags.

Most people buy on price, period. They do not make careful comparisons of features and support and longevity and resale value. They buy the cheapest one.

"Most people" -- the majority of the market -- are idiots when it comes to assessing actual value. They believe that "value" equals "low cost".

That's why the bottom half or more of the market is crap -- it's made to compete on price alone.

I can't be telling you something you didn't know, right?
