Not sure if it will be extinct or not.
Apple revolutionized the cell phone with the Iphone, whether you love or hate it. Look at the phones out there before the Iphone, Apple has even forced Blackberry to improve their products.
I happen to love Apple products, So happy microsoft is out of my life.

Not sure why you think they're overpriced when your driving new BMW's, I would think you understand the difference between high end and low end products. Having a proprietary operating system is to ensure that the user experience is the best it can be which has been Apples philosophy they've stuck with from the beginning and BMW obviously recognizes for their customers. I think they've proven this considering everyone else in the biz just waits for their new products to launch and copies them like your beloved Android and all the tablet devices being released. Funny how PC tablets came out years ago, but never got off the ground until the ipad which is now cannibalizing notebook sales. http://www.macrumors.com/2010/09/17/...-retail-sales/. Do you really think this is due to their "overpricing" and proprietary software? I doubt you'd be so concerned if you'd picked up some of their stock a year ago.

I agree completely though I would state it a little more mildly. I am completely dedicated to both Apple and BMW, and I believe for the same basic reason - the fantastic performance of their true-to-core-values products. I am, therefore, not surprised by the synergy between them and yes, you pay more but it's so worth it.

Boy me too. Completely dedicated to Apple. First computer was an Apple and I am forced to use MS at work which is a drag. Not sure what would need to happen to get me to buy a PC for personal use. Oh yeah...laptop for the sole purpose of connecting my BT Scanner Tool to the car. On second thought, no. I'll just borrow one from work! Look at it this way. If you don't have haters, you're just not doing well enough. Par for the course for both Apple and BMW.
