"The ad is absofrickinlutely inaccurate because it shows a scene where you think a wifi signal shouldn't be available."

Really?

That's your argument to get all hot and bothered looking at that ad?

I mean there's at least half a dozen things you can criticize more logically to hurt Apple's logic there. But at the end of the day they're pulling the customer's emotional strings with that ad where logic and facts go out the window and they ARE winning big time with that ad.

That's what matters in these things. Growing a platform. However you do it, keep your eye on the ball. Even if you don't agree with their tactics and you want to give your morality judgement, understand what these things are doing to the masses and how it affects the smartphone ecosystem.

No, GPU and CPUs are means to an end. Go back to basic to what computers are and what they're meant to be.
