Apple history

[DogDude]

If you look through Apple's history, they have historically charged for each and every new upgrade, requiring the customer to buy an entirely new product. They only do "free" upgrades if there's a very serious flaw, apparently (like exploding batteries). In fact, that's why we won't consider Apple products.... their lock-in is ridiculous. Their PC's are notorously hard (if not impossible) to upgrade, as are their other products.

Rest assured, it'll be a new iPod, and all of the current iPod owners will happily be waiting in lines outaside the Apple stores like good little consumer drones, ready to pledge their eternal, undying love, affection, and wallets to Apple. All Praise Apple!
