That, I think, is the point most people are trying to make. Anyone who just doesn't "get it" never will. Not until they bother taking a few CIT classes in college and really understanding information technology and many of the ground breaking possibilities with the N900. So yes, Apple is brilliant. They have marketed a childrens book to the masses, that, guess what, the masses love. But to try and argue that it is somehow superior. Laughable.
Hmmm... one could easily use the same argument on religion. No wonder that some people praise the iPhone as a `Jesus Phone` and consider Steve Jobs as the new Messiah

Thank you for clarifying the meme Apple uses to sell its products - they are using the technique that has been around for thousands of years. Sans the beheadings, of course.
