The real issue here is MY opinion. It means ever so much more to me than yours does.

It is a shame if my opinion puts Apple out of business but once again it is MY opinion.

I don’t care for Microsoft much either.

I also think Gov’t Motors and Ford trucks suck. Is it okay with apple if I don’t like these companies too?

Finally, I don’t care for cars either so I will stick with my Titan truck.

One can’t have one’s own facts but at least for now in America one can have one’s own opinion.

I am a stubborn man and you have just lowered apple in my eyes and I wasn’t sure that was possible. Now I refuse to even eat a Granny Smith apple.

There are opinions, and there are opinions. Not all opinions are equal. Some are educated and some are ignorant. If you do your due diligence you might change your ignorant opinion to an educated one. But that's up to you. I really don't are when someone says they are not interested in learning the facts on an issue because they are so hidebound the facts don't matter.

A lot of those American car components are made overseas or outside the USA. One time a boss of mine was commenting on my purchase of a Japanese car, not being American made. I popped the hood on his Ford truck and pointed out that most of the drivetrain was Japanese made by Mazda. A lot of GM and Ford products are made elsewhere, some in Canada and Mexico. While Japanese cars like Nissan and Toyota are made here (Titan and Altima in Tennessee). Hard to know what to buy any more based on country of origin, but Apple makes far more stuff here and employs more Americans than most PC makers.
