I'm already (and always were) on Microsoft's side. Without Microsoft, computers would not have advanced the way they did and accessible Internet would not be at its current point or if it was, it would be damn expensive.
As for my experience, my dad owns an iPhone (which I always had a rough time updating it for him), still though, I've read countless articles and seen enough proof to realize what a bunch of money-hungry cretins those Apple guys are. Do I really have to buy an Apple product and obtain some personal experience with it to judge its functionality and estimate its value? No.
You see, it used to be good products for crazy expensive prices..
Now it's stupid products with still crazy expensive prices. Be a smart customer not a sucker.

stop hating people, each to their own...
It's not on facebook Kam but nonetheless, I uploaded a txt file for you.
I am not really hating, I'm just stating the obvious. Apple is nothing but a trend right now, they aren't innovating (heck, did they ever?) and they're trying to squeeze their customers/fans to the bone. Recent proof, the iPad Mini.. Why in the world would you make something like that? It's just an oversized iPhone and an iPad in a smaller scale. Best part? It costs $140 more than its components actually do. So that's a $140 you pay to Apple for no reason whatsoever. Even the Amazon Kindle tablet was confirmed to be a better gadget than this and it costs $200. People need to wake up and realize what's going on and I believe some of them already started.
We have never owned a Apple computer but Lady ownes the iPad1 & I own a iPad2.
In 2007/2008, we both went from a Nokia 6120 to an iPhone 3G and it was a great phone back then.
In 2010, Lady upgraded to the iPhone 4 and I went to a Samsung Galaxy S.
iPhone 4 was a great improvement, but the Samsung Galaxy S was just something else with Android OS.
Now we both happily use the Samsung Galaxy S II.
Not sure if we will go with the 'NEW' iPad later.
I have scored a Acer Iconia A510, 10.1 tablet running Android 4.0.4 and it is flawless.
iOS 6.0.1 has just been updated to my iPad2 and it still runs great..
As for the iPad 1, its still on iOS 5.1.1 and never to be updated again.(possible JB time)
Thanks Apple..
:yuno:Why U NO update no more..
[EDIT] Also have a 4th gen iPod nano 1GB, runs perfectly

the only thing i own from apple is an old classic ipod 4th gen.
only because it was the only decently priced mass storage .mp3 player on the market then and still is today.
For the longest time I didn't mind Apple. In fact, I used to enjoy it. I think this stems mainly from their advertising and the way they present themselves. They seemed new. Different. Creative. I knew they held back technology to milk more money from us (like the iPad 1 without a camera, etc.), and I knew their gadgets were well overpriced, but I always felt like they were fun and simple to use.
What really made me turn around on them would have to have been all their lawsuits. Jesus. They've been having patent battles left, right and center. I'm sick of it. Give it a rest and grow up a little, Apple. Here are some interesting links regarding Apple. Some are about the patents battles, some aren't. Do note that I couldn't even be bothered looking for these. There are plenty more out there for you to read.
P.S. I'm aware other companies do have patent lawsuits as well, but not nearly enough and not nearly as trivial as Apple's lawsuits. I've also noticed that most lawsuits against Apple are in retaliation for Apple constantly harassing the other companies. So yeah. Just my 2-cents.

Like mentioned, they can't innovate so they're trying to do their best by suing every other company out there. Yes, they won a case against Samsung which will be REVIEWED after they found that the judge and one of the juries had personal history in favor of Apple.
So they demand 30% fees from Microsoft to let SkyDrive run on iOS, stepping on the head of customers who already use the feature and developers who have integrated SkyDrive into their applications.
PS: The one who actually rated the thread and even gave it 2 out of 5.. Did I hurt your ego or made you feel bad? Good cause you deserve it, now go jump off a cliff.. Please though, don't use Apple Maps, I want you to find your way to that cliff and actually jump.
