iOS7 is a move forward, but it's not like they didn't have all that stuff before. It's just exciting, because it's a new redesign.

I wouldn't call it moving forward, I'd just call it a gimmick. I updated our iPad with it this morning, and there's not much difference. Some change to the graphics (Though there wasn't wrong with it in the first place) and minor tweaks here and there. And just think; this (along with another fingerprint gimmick) is one of the main selling points for the iPhone 5S.

Nice job, Apple.

A gimmick is all they are anymore. But GG, Apple.

My thoughts though... If it's one thing I can't stand, it's someone who thinks they can talk down to someone just because they do something that the other person is not. Just keep in mind that I could go to school with no issues. I don't like school, so I'm not bothering with it. Don't make me have to be mean about it, because truthfully when it comes down to it, I would spin circles around your ass in any area or subject in school. So don't talk down to me about it.

iOS is nice if you like exchanging a lot of money for a nicely polished turd.

Android is nice, if you want something that fails half the time.

:club:

May fail half the time, but it's half the price! :D

I'd rather pay money for quality. Saves me time trying to figure out why something doesn't work.

This is coming from someone who went from an iPhone 4, to an HTC Android, back to an iPhone 5. Switching back, I realized that the people who had trouble hearing me before, can hear me now, and not as many dropped calls. Not to mention, more apps that I would use; they even added even more apps while I was gone that I can use to code for my job.

Apple isn't something I'd call quality. Just because it costs an arm and a leg for something mediocre - which you could get something way better for much cheaper from other companies - doesn't mean it's quality. The only thing that I honestly, truly like from Apple is iTunes. And sometimes I miss my iPod, but then I cringe at remembering how much I paid for less than 4 gigs.

It's kind of like Alienware. Even before being Dell, with Alienware you were basically paying for a look and a brand. Doesn't make them better, and you most certainly could build your own rig for cheaper, and it would blow an Alienware out of the water.
 
I think that guilt tripping is not something you want to always do, but it's become such a custom for you, that you don't know any other way. I'm not degrading the fact that you're upset... But I think it's time that you just get over things. No, things didn't go how you were planning. Things went completely opposite, backwards even... But that's life. It doesn't always go how you want.
 
I just almost, almost, put porn on my workplaces' server. I'm sure my boss would have loved that!

Note: always watch where you're sending files, *******!

I feel you. I hate when people try to use guilt as a weapon =\
