That is just narrowminded, not to mention you are projecting. I do hate Apple though, but I'll use their products if they work for me. 
What I do hate is corporate bullying like we see with MS, Apple, Amazon, Google, etc. Yes, even your beloved Google. Try using something like Outlook on Android and see the hoops you have to jump through, or the money you have to shell out for the privilege. Try activating Android without a Gmail account or trying to enjoy a tablet without all the built-in cellular stuff which your tablet doesn't need nor has the capacity to use. For all these companies it is ALL about he MONEY. So it disgusts me to see fanboys who are so blindly dedicated to such unscrupulous companies. I'll use their products, but don't expect me to preach the gospel of Google, or of Amazon, or of Apple, etc.
So lay off! |
I LOVE Amazon, Love them they are second go to for my audio video cables, monoprice.com is my first.
Amazon MP3 has replaced my need for iTunes. Love the MP3 , just need a better checkout.
I'm loving Amazon MP3 Cloud Player
now that I have a Roku, Amazon VOD has replaced Comcast OnDemand.
I order alot of stuff from Amazon, I just think the kindle, IMHO, is the most overated ereader and everyone on here acts like it's the second coming of Christ. I have no idea why.
Apple? It is what it is. Sharp looking products, world class marketing team, it's their fanboys that drive me up a wall. It's very similiar to Bose fan boys going on to audiophile sites and telling them how great Bose is, basically because they have this perception. But any self respecting audio phile just laughs and shakes their heads and the sound Bose and it's overpriced products that couldn't hold a candle to other audio products in terms of pure audio quality.
My point with you is, OK we get it, you hate the nook, why hang out here, sell it, buy a device that makes you happy.
I mean we really don't want to hear how much you think the nook is a POS every single day, every single thread.
it's grown tiresome.
