> I would ditch Apple in a heartbeat...

Why would you ditch it in a heartbeat if you think that:

- Apple displays are beautiful and completely free of defects

- Apple trackpads are incredible

- Apple computers are ridiculously thin

- The battery life is incredible

- The hardware is just great

It's like saying I would ditch my wife in a heartbeat, but her face is super pretty, her body is perfect and her heart is a heart of angel...but I would still ditch her in a heartbeat...

Maybe you and your wife have fundamental differences in beliefs about how people should live their lives?

Because I often feel impeded by the partially closed nature of OS X and the extremely closed nature of iOS.

Pretty sure the problem is what he is describing is purely the hardware, but doesn't equate that with a heart of gold. What he's saying is that she's beautiful, but he doesn't like her personality.

Basically, he's ditching her because he's not superficial.
