that's the way I see Android users, lol.

If anything iOS is standard issue and locked down. Android users love installing custom roms, hacks, and modchips. Then, they take their customizations and show off how different their interfaces are to each other. : X

is it true that apple "owns" everything you put on your iphone, and that you lease it and not own it.

I have never heard of this. I'm not saying it's true or false, but I have bought and sold iPhones the same way anyone would buy and sell any other phone.

I don't see an Apple rep beating down my door to repossess their property anytime soon.

I really don't have a problem with apple products. I think they make great stuff. You can't touch their abilities in graphic/video editing and whatnot.

But it's the people and the company that really bothers me.
They have a snootyness attitude about them.
They seem to think Steve Jobs is (was) some kind of hero.
They all seem to have the same attitude he does about his products and the competitors.
They deny actual issues with their products (or blame it on the user).
They buy apple family stickers for their cars.
They despise windows or anything non-apple.
They constantly make arguments about how amazing their i-whatever is and how nothing can touch it.
(I'm not saying all people who own apple products, just the fans(boys).)

I relate them to the same kind of people that buy Prius', and people that don't eat meat, and people who hang out in starbucks....and people who poop flowers.


For those reasons, I have never, and will never purchase an apple product.

so you won't buy an apple product because you don't like how some people who use apple products act?
