This is truth. They already ARE the same in most aspects, which is why the brands are doing anything they can in attempts to make themselves appear different. Samsung phones can transfer images just by touching phones!!!! Awwwwww snap. Except I can do that with my mom's flip phone. Through a text. Without being next to someone. Impressive.
Also my beef with Apple as a company, as they sell themselves specifically on being "something unique" when they aren't. I'm a fan of the open-source programs that I use on any OS that gives me choice and ability. I don't want to
NEED to have a brands proprietary music jukebox on my computer, and I don't think my mp3 player should have to be erased if I want to add a song from a new computer. This is why I choose not to own Apple devices. And I don't want to pay 4x price in an attempt to fool other people into thinking that I'm unique.
There are extremely valid reasons to own Apple products. Graphic design is one of them. Serious movie editing as well. Many good reasons. But the average college-age reason of "it has better multimedia" is more worn than a $2 whore, and is my biggest criticism of the company. Yes. I dislike apple because they cater to and attract douches. Real power-users who take advantage of the actual pros of the Apple brand are merely casualties to the brand's image.
I don't dislike people for what they choose to use. I just get a bad taste in my mouth sometimes when I find out WHY they choose what they do. It's cringe-worthy at times, or hilarious. Depends on if I've had a cigar lately :smoke2:
In similar news, I found this super guffawable back in the day, and even hanged it up on my cubicle when I worked at an office. Apparently "thousands" of phones were dropped to test. Hopefully those people learned the difference between software and hardware. Or at least Photoshop vs Corporate notifications.
Full Disclosure: I have a G2 that I love, except that I've now cracked the screen(s) twice. Also I wish it were smaller, I really just wanted the best camera available in a phone at the time. I was paid $20 to buy the phone after discounts and then rebates, the month the phone was released.
