Of course I'm not - generally speaking.
In this particular case though: You have to be aware that whatever market Apple enters (except music players, maybe), they always fail to reach a noteworthy market share.
Phones... < 3% AFAIK. Even smartphones: 16% or so.
Computers in general: 5%
That means 97% of the phone users and 95% of all computer users stay away from Apple. Maybe
one
of the reasons for this is this is that many consumers find the über-American, hysteric hype as repulsive and shady as I do.
(It's symptomatic, though, that people would think Apple's market share is much higher... because of the noise they generate among those who fall for hysterical hype: journalists.)
