"Is there no larger contingent of armchair corporate CEOs than Apple fanatics?"
Yes, Apple haters and wannabees.
1. iCheap -- People who are too cheap or too poor to buy a Mac.
2. Licensing FairPlay -- people who claim the iPod is too expensive or no good but still want the power of the iPod, iTMS, and iTunes
3. OS Upgrades -- this complaint I hear most frequently from PC users who have no clue. They think XP is significantly different than 2000 but that Jaguar and Panther are just Service Packs. They think we are charged for security updates, that updates are always restricted to new versions, that we are forced to upgrade, etc...
Basically, this article is crap. You act as if you've come up with some new angle on preaching what Apple should or should not do... when really this is a thinly-veiled and poor rationalization for being an armchair CEO yourself. What's the point?
