The only computers I have ever owned have been Macintoshes. My family owns four iPhones and two iPads. I rationalize this based on the satisfaction that I get using electronics that work the way they are supposed to, with pleasing, intuitive user interfaces. Then there's the whole Steve Jobs cult of personality thing that I may be buying into subconsciously.
Anyway, Apple the corporation has some issues, such as its reliance on Chinese facilities employing questionable labour practices. This latest story about excluding convicted felons from their worksites seems gratuitously harsh, and causes me to wonder if it's time to consider other products.
