Would you also apply the same metric to Linux? That Windows is really a better product than Linux? The marketshare arguments are particularly bogus when you're dealing with Microsoft as they're convicted monopolists.

The power company is really awesome, too, because they have lots of market share? Or Comcast?

To address the hype, again, the mobile vs computer distinction is important, because the hype you're talking about doesn't exist for the computer side of things.

Nah, sometimes objectivity is subjective.
