    7 years…seems well reasoned.

    Oh, I can’t wait for this. Please tell me what the “well reason” is?

    But I can see by your shelf life comment

    That I’m smarter than you? Yes, bowing out is probably a good choice at this point.

      You’re funny.

      You pose no threat because your position is transparent. Your argument here relies on saying what isn’t ok for you without stating your what you would prefer instead which leaves you open to moving the goalposts to wherever you want them to be.

      You don’t have a position in this discussion beyond Apple bad for “reasons” and puffing out your chest. It is all air, smoke and mirrors. You ask questions as your argument and when they are answered you redefine what the entire discussion is about. This is an argumentative method used by children.

      Do better, because I am smarter than you; I can see that any discussion with you is a waste of time.

        I didn’t say it, because it doesn’t need saying, because it should be obvious to anyone who knows anything about Apple. But since you asked so nicely: Stop ending software support prematurely. Stop inventing new screws. Make schematics available. Make replacement parts available. Stop soldering everything to the board. Stop charging more for SSD and RAM than literal fucking gold. Stop locking iOS behind your fucking App Store. Stop doing everything humanly possible to prevent interoperability. Just generally stop showing such fucking contempt for your own consumers. Need I go on?

        I can see that any discussion with you is a waste of time.

        And yet here you are.

        Your turn: In what way is 7 years “well reasoned”?
