People have been complaining about the price of Apple products since the beginning of the company. This is nothing new. Every year, it's the same boring set of complaints and chief among them is price. Apple creates premium, often uncompromising products. That's not to say they're perfect...not by a long shot...but it's never really been about the low end market for them. They've always approached it top down sparing no expense and doing their best as a business to convince the consumer market that it's worth paying more than the alternative. I think most would agree that they've been succeeding for a long time. At it's core, Apple is a design company - you're paying for more than the components, you're paying for the philosophy. And people resonate with it. The proof is right in the earnings reports.
