Sensitive much? LOL
We are in a thread talking about tablets that will, and do, sell for $500 - $1200 and we are told that $29 mice are an example of the quality job that Microsoft does in the hardware market? LOL It deserved to be mocked.
There are plenty of things I dislike about Apple, and iTunes on Windows comes to mind very quickly. But I think it is hilarious to watch people bash Apple and their products when they can do most of what they are looking for in non-Apple products, with very little effort. The same people who love to root their Android devices turn and complain that you can't do some of the same things on Apple products without Jailbreaking. Same thing, different device, but for Apple it is decried as a defect but celebrated when the same thing is done on an Android device. Despite what some think I am not an Apple fanboi, I am simply a critic of hypocrisy.
