Yeah I normally try my best to speak for the 'silent majority' on these boards, but I can't bring myself to defend the 'sheep mentality'. You try to make sense as to which is the enticing feature unique to the iPhone that makes it so desirable, and more often than not it's superficial aesthetics, or 'just because'. There's nothing wrong with it obviously, but when did we all become such mindless drones that the media can manipulate so easily?

Speak for yourself, only yourself and that way you won't insult anyone by making assumptions about what other people want. Theres no sheep mentality, there are just people who get pissy about other peoples choices which have nothing to do with them.

There is certainly some sheepishness to Apple fans. My mum bought a MacBook because "I just can't use Vista," of course when asked what was wrong with Vista she couldn't come up with anything, but everyone else seems to be getting MacBooks so she should too

That goes both ways, though. Many of the "Apple haters" I've come across go out of their way to avoid the products for reasons just as silly or nonsensical.
Besides, if your mom bought a laptop PC, what would be her excuse for not buying a MacBook? Clueless customers are clueless, no matter what they buy.
