Don't be ridiculous, they love their customers. You just ain't one of them. Their target demo continues to be people don't want to think about it and have enough money to not care about the difference between $8 and $80. Same as ever. It's also kinda hard to fault them considering how much fucking money they make.
Agreed. They make sleek, flashy products for a reason- shiny = better. It's not so much a case of making products that die easily, as it is making incremental upgrades that encourage big spenders to get the latest version.
I'm pretty system-agnostic, each cult has its flaws, but one thing Apple does not do is make crappy hardware. My last MacBook was still going strong after 6 years, my partner's Air is pushing eight. My iPod Video has been replaced by my phone, but last I turned it on, it was working fine, must be over ten years old.
