None of these arguments are very satisfactory to me as a consumer and this appears to be more Mafia like behaviour than a genuine concern for market based competition.
Yes. Thought customer means a lot of things. I have purchased their MacBooks recently, iphones for family and such.
Why would that matter? It's completley possible to be harmed by a companies market manipulation without being a customer of theirs.
I'm trying to understand bias. I don't think you read the GP comment correctly.
Ah if that is your true point, then no, I am not an Apple fanboy. My daily primary use phone is Android but my work machine is typically the highest available MacBook. (I can not stand windows). I buy iPhones for my family members.
