Yeah! Apple should be like all those other companies and not advertise or promote!

Of course not. We should all be struck with awe at the mearest glimpse of an Apple product, and be filled with an overwelming desire to purchase them, worship them, make passionate love with them. All other products are mear pale attempts at imitating their awesomness and coolness. The other electronics companies should realize this and close their doors; their executives to bow down to The Jobs, kiss his feet, and appologize for tempting the masses to stray from the One True Productline.

OK... I get that you're trying to be funny.

But what exactly are you skewering here? That some people really like Apple products? That Apple's marketing tries to make people want to buy Apple stuff?

Same old boring crap from the haters. Yawn.

I don't hate apple at all. I just like poking fun at a guy that seems to get his feather ruffled if anyone questions his authority.

And coolness or advertising saavy notwithstanding, if then the products didn't please millions upon millions of people, they would not be purchased and recommended at the astonishing that's been happening for at least a decade.

I'm not an Apple apologist, but the venom against them for touting their products and demeaning their competitors is misplaced. What else are they supposed to be doing as a for-profit retail product corporation?

I think there is a cultish following because the products are so damn good.
