I agree. I'm a Windows/Android user (though not a religious one in either case) who's tempted to switch periodically to Apple stuff. It would all be so easy, it seems. But the more I play with Apple devices (my wife owns a Mac and an iPhone and we have iPod Touches and a ATV2), the more I realize that I want computers, not computing appliances. And it seems like the future of Apple, even Macs, is in appliances. Don't get me wrong, I think some appliances are great for some applications, and I think most people don't need more than that, and Apple is obviously doing very well and is going to continue to do so, but it's not what I want. And there's another component, too: Apple's control over their devices comes with a weird moral component in the form of quality control. Which is fine for some, I guess. Disneyland is a fun place for lots of people to visit, too, I understand. But I don't really enjoy it that much, and I definitely wouldn't want to live there.
