One that suggests that, because you personally don't love the Apple-announced product, that Apple is shit and "needs a wake up call". It's not THAT hard to see that a lot of people will like these products, and Apple will sell a shit-ton of them.

Well, in that case, the word "Apple" is really unnecessary. That's true in pretty much every product announcement thread.

Yes, but it seems that Apple tends to bring out the worst in people on both sides (fans and foes)

Love and hate are not equivalent. If you hate Apple you are here to troll.

No, but they are symmetric.

The asymmetry is that haters are not really interested and just shit all over the discussion.

That's not asymmetry. The lovers are also not really interested in discussion and are just as prone to pollute it with blind positivity as the haters are to do so with blind negativity.

The lovers, while possibly blinded, are at least interested in the details.

If you do not think somebody can think something's a bad idea and still be interested in "the details", I question what sort of world you live in.

You would do well to consider removing the word "haters" from your vocabulary. It's used solely by the unempathic, the childish, and the criticism-sensitive, and doesn't in any situation help.

They come and leave one line jokes. Very intellectual.
