This is true of myself (UX Designer with 10+ years in the biz pushing code and design) and ALL of the creative types I associate with. I know Apple is something like 90% an iPhone company now, but I'd love to see some long term analysis on the damage they've done to themselves, and even the iPhone, by alienating ALL of the creative content creators of the world. I know I'm painting in broad strokes, but it's hard to overstate the positive mindshare and goodwill Apple used to enjoy in this community. Now they're just the new Microsoft-a necessary annoyance.
- err4nt 10y agoAgree 100%, I just refurbished my 6-year old Macbook Air instead of buying a new computer because Apple doesn't sell anything today I actually want. I know for sure my next tablet and my next phone won't be Apple, so they have until this 2011 Macbook Air dies (for the last time) to come up with something worth spending money on, or else I'm back to the PC market! Same goes for all of the Mac users I know, we lament the golden days of Apple but are glad to have experienced them. This Apple is starting to go rotten.
