Devil's advocate here...

"Who's the more foolish; the fool or the fool who follows him?" - Obi Wan Kenobi

Waiting on a product that was promised ages ago to grant a freedom that's not truly free nor open, or dependency on an ecosystem that's as closed as a jail that it requires something called a "jail break" to make it more "free"? Choice of two evils - people will tend to choose the evil the know.

Either way, it seems as if they both do not deliver a freedom that's true and pure. It's just perceived as such mainly due to nostalgia and a terminal.

Or something...
