While I think some of the Apple marketing is overhyped, I think you're really making a sweeping generalization. I think Apple appliances, like the iPod, iPad and iPhone (which are the items that are really responsible for Apple's success) are very good (if overpriced).

The iPod Touch is a really nice media device (so-so on gaming) and the iPad is a really nifty gadget. I don't value some of the features against their pricing, but I understand the appeal. Still, I could get a good laptopo for the same or lower cost and get more use out of it.

As always, I never let my purchases define me. I would not feel "metrosexual" or "consumerist" using any of them. When the iPhone 3G came out, I bought one for my wife. The only downside has been the absolutely shitty ATT network. Verizon is on the horizon (!) for Valentines Day 2011. We shall see.

I remind both of you that Rush Limbaugh is standardized on Macs.

Stupid is dismissing a potentially superior product because of what you might look like to others (or just yourself).

You are just one more geek with a weak ego and class envy. You probably think the same of those who drive Rolls Royces.
