Yes. Thank you. I think we the software developers need to see, evaluate tech products from a regular user perspective. As I mentioned in a comment above, no consumer accepts a bad experience just because he bought a cheap computer just like nobody accepts his private parts to be visible when he buys cheap pants. As far as the consumer is concerned he found a good deal.

And therein lies the problem. When people buy these awful computers it sends a message to the companies that there's a market for them. If they wanted to change their image they'd need to only compete with apple, which is a losing strategy in the short term.

What would you do?

Excellent question. The answer deserves a blog post of its own. :-)
