One of my favorite things about Apple is that they don't call attention to any of this. It's perfectly fine with them if people want to keep thinking they just sell overpriced trinkets to a cult of kool-aid drinking hispter douchebags, and that their success is entirely due to "marketing" and "Steve Jobs' RDF".

would be cool to see some stats on apples marketing impact vs competition because im sure their ads sell a lot more product than retarded videos about jugglers/robot spiders/everybody gettin on/fat pumpy dudes being windows 7
