Yes, but the question is WHICH app store, where. . . and how much is actually there. . .
Trying to attack me because I said macbot and idummy (or whatever I called it) as if that’s the most disgusting thing one could call a person. Get a grip. That’s like me getting upset over someone saying Micro$oft or Windoze or windblows. OMG....they just insulted me.
How in the world can YOU be insulted by Micro$oft, Windoze, or Winblows?They do not refer to human beings or any animate person.
Does the difference really escape you? Let me educate you. "MacBot," "Apple Cultists," "iDiots," and "iDummy" refers to the users of Apple Macs or iOS users. PEOPLE who have real feelings. That is who you are insulting. People are not fair targets for derogatory insulting names. Using such insults against the minority product users, as the user of the majority product, makes you a rude bigot.
"Micro$soft", refers to a company, while Windoze" and "Windblows" are referring to an inanimate PRODUCT none of which have feelings and cannot be insulted. They are fair game for amusing derogatory names.
Think about it. . . are there any such slurs and insults that target Windows users? Do you hear any Apple users tossing around names such as "WinBots", "PCDummy", or anything at all that is all derogatory because of their choice of computer platform? You hear people deriding the company, or the OS, or other software, but not the people who use it. . . mostly we feel for the sufferers who have to put up with the problems the platform presents them with. . . but we don't deride the users.
YOU are not your computer. . . but you are the user of that machine. When ever you say MacBot, Cultists, iDiots, iDummy, or even fanboy you are attacking the user for his intelligence and opinion for choosing Macs, his ability to use a computer, etc. That is the personal psychological loading on those epithets. For example:
Apple fanboys: People too stupid to work with technology, and are also bad investors. Someone who is enamoured by a shiney device; someone that lets another with a PC get the job done (or secretely installs Windows 7 on their device and pretends they are still using a Mac); a person that is paranoid about their personal image, and is extremely uncomfortable without a logo or some branded merchandise around them; a person who is a sucker enough to completely overpay for overpriced hardware using industrial design as an excuse, and then suffer the device for years, long after it's completely obsolete, simply because they paid so much.
Yes, that is a published definition of an Apple Fanboy.
There is no personal psychological loading on Micro$oft, MicroShaft, WindDoze, WinBlows, and the other epithets for the company or products except a learned and often shared disgust for what users have EXPERIENCED using those products or at the hands of the company.
The Urban Dictionary defines
Micro$oft as: A derogotitory term for Microsoft's EVIL practices of EARNING MONEY!Microshaft as: Buying a Microsoft product and getting the "shaft"
Windoze as: Derogatory internet slang for Microsoft Windows.
Winblows as: A play on words. Used by people who don't like the Windows operating sysytem.
Not a single one of those references targeting a person, for-q-clinton, unless you are Microsoft or Windows, how can you be insulted?
No the question isn’t which app store. Are you saying non-US customers are less important to Apple?
