I'm sorry? What point are you making? I was responding to a post specifically about consumers choosing a better technology given choice. I called nonsense on that since people still choose to use obsolete technology despite alternatives. My post in no way was about IT professionals and neither was the previous post as fas as I am concerned.
To paraphrase Henry Ford, if he gave people what they "wanted" it was a faster horse. Ford didn't care about giving people better horses. Apple knows the best way to progress (and fastest) is to make sure that you don't have a crutch to depend on.
