I see this attitude of "I don't like this product that was never meant for my use case, therefore nobody else will want it either" a lot among tech people, and HN is no exception. Just look at yesterday's comments on the Raspberry Pi touch screen [1]. Or really, the comments on almost any large consumer-oriented product launch.

Just as often I see this "among tech people" type of attitude thrown around as if we are somehow a totally different class of people who don't think about anything outside of compilers and caching optimizations.

We have lives outside of work that also helps informs our opinions on these things.
