Wow. I had no clue.
Haha, your reply made me laugh and like most jokes, it has truth in it. It comes down to personal preference. Some people prefer to look at the specs and "potential" of a device rather than what it can do out of the box, what kind of support is provided with it out of the box, etc.

This is one of the clear differences between an "apple fanboy" and "open source geek".

The majority of the public would prefer not to have to develop their own software or wait forever for things to be fixed. I'm somewhere in the middle. In college, I used to love a good late night rumble with linux in order to get something to work...now?...not so much. I don't have time for that...

To each his own...
