I'm a big lover of arrogance, controversy and challenging status quo... But seriously? Challenging it with "lets all come together, in a one-size-fits-all, uniform, productivity parade honoring the propaganda department of Apple"??
I hated really the Microsoft experience and was so disappointed by the earliest Linux distribution I switched to OS X when it came out and I have never looked back. I recognize Apple's great contributions to UX and their truly awesome dedication to their mantra "It just works" but I also recognize when they are wrong. I am not blinded by their sales-pitch. And no one with respect for the "Apple-philosophy" should ever be colored by the works of their marketing department. No one should be lead to believe there is reason to settle and not try harder. Apple certainly would not do that themselves. Their core idea is to challenge everything and keep pushing the envelope.
We all do different things for different reasons. Thank for that.
Productivity, efficiency, status and financial success is not the common motivator for all mankind and I hope it never will be. This I say because I believe we can do far better than that.
Experimenting, trying out new things and failing is all a part of the learning experience. Embrace it.
