I never "imply," so if it's not in my words, please don't try to attribute it to me. I never thought or suggested anything like the above statement. In fact, I think I was pretty clear that I'm not even being derogatory toward Apple at all. Of course they make a great product. How many times do I have to say it? I'm only challenging your assumption that hundreds of millions of units sold somehow equals the most intuitive and (non-techie) user-friendly interface going. A gadget's success/failure is not that simple and you know it.
Wow, people get really touchy when you quote their words back to them. Either the main reason for Apple's success is product quality, or the main reason is marketing, trendiness, and that "consumers ARE sheep".
You stated -not implied- the latter.
I think I'll leave it there. I'm inferring from the tone of your comment that further discussion would be unpleasant.
