"Plenty of people get outright hostile and dismissive of anything and everything that might create competition with the brand they're religiously following." Do they? I am not aware of many FB, Android or google fanboys. People just use it. But surely would use something better, if avaiable. Religious passion is more happening with apple, but it seems to me, they lost faith quite a bit. People use it and are entrenched in the apple universe, but fanatic worship and praise I am hearing way less nowdays, than back in the day, when Jobs was alive.
