Given the sheer number of things that Apple does, it's not exactly hard to say that at some point in the future, Apple will be disliked.

  the key difference between Apple and MS is that Apple doesn't currently produce garbage that they overcharge for (though there may be an exception here and there). it's easier to put up with a jerk company that produces nice stuff

    What are you talking about? Apple overcharges for everything. Their monitors and laptops alone are probably 20% more expensive than the PC equivalents. Early iPods had terrible battery life and sound quality. As far as the OS, Windows sets the bar pretty low, but the recent versions of OSX have not been the most stable. I've wanted to play around with their laptops, iPods, and iPhone, but everytime I start looking into it the price scares me off. I've been more than happy staying away from both MS and Apple products, but at least the Apple ones pique my interest slightly.

      not true. apple may not have low end models and prices but their midrange and highend machines are comparable to their pc counterparts with price. they start at 799... not to mention that apple machines are both stable, secure, and easy to use. windows can only claim easy to use (i grew up on it) while most unix distros can't claim to be easy " Early iPods had terrible battery life and sound quality" that is no longer the case and they were still better than anything out on the market when they first came out btw - clever name... reminds me of nsx2
