There is a serious anti-Apple bias by many of the vocal regulars at this site. Most are still Microsoft zealots who are jealous of recent Apple success and somehow think that Apple has to fail for Microsoft to succeed.

...for the same reason I bought my 3GS and my Mac Mini: Apple won't let me make my living as a programmer [which includes developing iOS apps] without one.

Completely overrated product. Prefer my HTC Titan running on Windows Phone.

...which leads me to ask, where is Apple's market? Why are we so different?

I think computer viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.

Well, many function that are available today for phones or for windows are invented by apple.
We are so different, because we are "Microsoft Developers" and some here in CP think that if microsoft released sh*t it must be gold (like ribbon bar or windows 8 or ms-Surface).

An obvious answer would be market saturation; those with iPhones are already happy and don't feel a need to upgrade.
As for me, I feel Apple's business practices are unfriendly both to developers and users and so I won't buy their products (e.g. Apple's restrictive app rules and ability to reject apps for almost any reason; their lawsuits against Samsung et al; the fact that their Chinese workers are far underpaid while iPhones have far higher profit margins than products from any other manufacturer... oh yeah, and I don't think eliminating buttons is the answer to every UI design problem  )
Oh yeah, and The CP has more Microsofties than your average developer site, doesn't it?

plus, Apple fans are mindless fanboys who evaluate tech solely on the basis of who made it.
right?

Surely you jest? Most of the twits on this site can't see the forest for the trees - they think the smartphone market is driven by hardware specs alone.

I will plan to buy Nokia Lumia 920 instead of IPhone 5.Windows Phone 8 is Rocking..!!!!

Personally i think i phone is not as innovative and glamorous as it pretends to be.
It the marketing and belief of people who think owning an iphone is style statement.
Windows Phone seems much better than iphone anyways.
i am Eagery waiting for Microsoft Surface pro as well

Well said.
BTW, it is "eagerly waiting" not "Eagery".
|

Yes
That shows how eager ( and excited) I am
