I find it extremely uncomfortable to partake in these discussions (outside HN, of course). The Macrumors poll effectively claims over 50% of the units are defective. It seems not that many people have a problem with this kind of reasoning. I've also noticed Godwin's law in effect faster than usual.

What I do find interesting, however, is the need to utterly bash a product you will never buy, and never intended to, possibly because you believe your own brand of choice to benefit from that sort of commentary.
