Why do I even have an Ipad? Got it free. Also have a Samsung tablet, Kindle (not fire) and 2 PCs.
Because everyone that drinks the koolaid doesn't know that there are better ways to do things.
I take it from you question that you have drank the koolaid?
You might have asked, why do I post? So that users take a look at all the options out there and not just get an Ipad because their friends have one. There are reasons why Android is outselling IOS.
By the way, I didn't post all the idiosyncrasies that Apple does just some that are very irritating.
Also I have to read all the things that people hate about Win8, like 3 clicks to shutdown which they do once a day.
