I'm afraid that in the useless and stupid quest for "ease of use," this would happen to the automobile: http://assets.yodawgpics.com/hashed_silo_content/silo_content/5941/resized/macs.jpg http://assets.yodawgpics.com/hashed_silo_content/silo_conten... Apple isn't fit to make vehicles. They're a whole different league from consumer electronics. It isn't realistic to expect a very clearly function-follows-form company to design a viable, aerodynamic, fluid, and well-engineered car. Apple also isn't in any position to design a vehicle either – they outsource parts and are more assemblers with some in-house design going on.

> the useless and stupid quest for "ease of use," > a very clearly function-follows-form company Your opinions about Apple are, to put it mildly, non-mainstream. I am a frigging software engineer, perfectly able to handle complexity, and I prefer Apple products precisely due to that "useless, stupid" ease of use. I also question that "function follows form" is their design ethos, but even if it is, the result is still better than anyone else's. And that's the stupidest "yo dawg" I've ever seen. If there's anything that's too easy to use, it's online meme generator tools.

  >>"And that's the stupidest "yo dawg" I've ever seen. If there's anything that's too easy to use, it's online meme generator tools." This "Yo Dawg" meme is a joke about those infuriating one-button mice that Apple released a few years ago.
