Nope, you're still not getting it.
You have, for argument's sake, £500. You spend it on an Apple product. You have £0 left.
I have the £500. I do not spend it on an Apple product, I use Google on a PC/tablet. I still have £500.
Do you see the difference?
You have £0, I have £500.

Let's take this to a real world example.
What did I buy for £500 that you didn't pay £500 for on a google alternative?

Surely you paid for your tablet/pc/whatever?

My home computers were all free
My 'phone is at least 5 years old and cost me the price of a raffle ticket, and I have no plans to upgrade it. Don't own a tablet - the one I use is company issue and it's not very useful (It's an Apple product) and my laptop is also company issue.
So, your argument is about Google hardware as opposed to Apple hardware?

So you're looking down on me for owning the things I own, rather than getting them for free second hand off people?

Not at all
BUT, and much like that of my ex wife, this is a very big but - I fail to understand the hype about Apple. There are a multitude of products out there that do what Apple products do, without the price tag or the lack of reliability.
Never understood the hype, never going to be a part of it.
As and when they bring something out that is DEMONSTRABLY bigger/better/faster/more etc at a justifiable price, I might get interested. As it is, I'm not in the herd.

I don't get the point of apples that aren't brayburns.

You do realise that in your anti-apple rant, you've come off as a cheapskate and technophobe.
