I gotta wonder what the Venn diagram overlap of Mac users and Android users is. I bet it's pretty small.
But not as vanishingly small as the number of Android users who have a Mac user friend who will send them registration data every week.

I wish the iPhones weren't so crippled, but I guess that's what most users love about them? Shrug.

Four of the six laptops I've carried in my adult life have been Apple products, from my college TiBook through my current work Macbook Air, and haven't carried an iPhone since the 3G.
I haven't felt the need to root my Android phones in a few years but I still sideload a few apps so as long as Apple restricts that iOS is in a disadvantaged position. I also have a lot of Bluetooth devices that use the standard serial port profile, which Apple restricts for some unknown reason, so all of those would have to be replaced by more complicated WiFi-based devices that speak proprietary protocols to their specific apps instead of widely supported standard protocols.
If I were starting fresh right now with no smartphone history I'd probably pick Apple but at this point the inertia is too strong.
Tablets on the other hand, Google half-ass pays attention every few years where Apple actually cares. I just use my tablet as a consumption appliance so the iPad is perfect.
