These stories really make me laugh

I am an Apple user since 1997, from the first desktops to the latest Powerbooks.
Must say that i am very happy the easy way things work and as far as now never had an unfair from.
(Had to replace a screen on a three year old laptop once)
But when I see all these Microsoft folks with all their Firewals, endless virus protection software,
then I don't understand the love for these ugly machines.
Apple's notobooks come in white, some in black and the best ones in titanium or silver metal.
Not so bad looking I must say and no need to go for a white one.
And yes, the Apples are more expensive than the other brands, very true,
but there is no brand so innovative as Apple, no other brand is so looked at as Apple,
no other brand is seen so often in movies other compmies catalogues (like B&O) as Apple.
And when another brand is releasing a new phone, I don't think CNN will announce the release date on TV.
So why is that?
It's also funny to see that Apple is one of the most copied computer companies,
from the trashcan on the screen to the latest operation software.
Bill Gates loved it all and took a lot of it.
Apple has set a standard for MP3, with there iPods. Also these machienes are copied by many others,
Microsoft tried with that ZUNE, well try to look at that product and compare it it an iPod.
The iPods I am using are from the second generation and up and I just don't understand these synchronisation
problems some people have, most of it can be solved when reading a forum.
I don't work for Apple nor do I have their stocks, I am just a user and happy with most products the company releases;
thank god I don't need to use these microsoft based machines.
