I agree that Apple is not playing very ethically. I love Mac technology, but as devoted as Mac people are, you would think that Apple would not play these sneaky games. If your company is in the tank, then you can expect some shady business, but Mac is kicking financial butt, while treating the Mac faithful like we can't be trusted to keep up with the upgrade scene.
As great as Macs are, we Mac users still make many a sacrifice when using Macs. There is not nearly the software for Macs as there is for windows and what there is of it is typically more expensive. Apple should be rewarding the faithful by encouraging upgrades and purchases, not imposing them as if trying to sneak a pill into a baby’s mouth.
When does the character flaws in those run a company, turn into flaws in the products they sell? Makes me wonder. I get the feeling that the Mac guys up there in the corporate offices, don’t have much appreciation for the people who have supported them for so long. And that has to catch up somewhere. It is a professional arrogance that Mac users do not deserve to be suffered. Put the customer first, and the business will be more prosperous and productive long term. Take the customer for granted, and expect problems down the road. Does a computer designer with a hole in his head eventually design a computer with a hole in its quality?
I recently heard that the iPod has a battery that dies after 18 months, and is not replaceable. Now, I do not know if that is true, but if it is, that is what they call planned obsolescence, and is a very shady and sick way to do business. Would Honda or Mercedes sell a car that magically dies after 50 thousand miles? No! And they don’t have to, because a loyal cliental is something great companies respect. And if you make a good product and sell it in good faith, you don’t have to play games, but if you are playing games, makes me think there is trouble brewing up there in the corner office.
Mr. Jobs? Are you a genius or an opportunist? Cause the 2 ARE mutually exclusive, in my opinion. “Evil genius” is one of the lesser-appreciated oxymorons.
Blessings, Damon
