It always amuses me when people start bitching about Apple pricing and proudly saying how they are all above it themselves.
Apple's customer satisfaction is one of the highest in the industry, so obviously the price for their products is justified. And honestly I don't see other brands offerings are dramatically different in price, in US at least. It is different situation in Europe, and this may explain why Apple is mush less popular there. It sucks though that such a outstanding corporation is being rather domestic than global, obviously their only prime is Americans, but seems like Apple doesn't care ATM.
Anyways, people shouting about how Apple pricing is outrageous should think about themselves being hypocrites next time they use Windows. Microsoft operating margins in financial reports are not lesser to Apple's one, yet no one complain! And for home usage there are much cheaper or totally free alternatives in the market, but everyone is happy to pay for Windows / Office and go bitching on iPod price. LOL.
Personally I'm owning nothing from Apple, but I can see why people are kept interested in them. And their products are always there in my personal purchasing options, too. If it were not for Nokia handsets, I would have ended with iPhone in my pocket.
So learn your homework people: the price of Apple products IS competive, and user experience is just superior. Deal with it.
