I always laugh at people like him... Have been using Apple in the business (Tech Manufacturer) world for years with nary a problem except for ignorant IT people. Who in general can't do much besides reset you passwords when you get back from a long vacation.

There are exceptions but they are rare...

Couldnt be further from the truth, actually. In the early days MS bought or licensed most things, and today hold thousands of patents on actual technological innovations. Not the shape of a device like Apple who basically stole 98% of what they have done.

Not to mention selling you less than brand name computer parts for 10 times the markup that comes loaded with an insecure and featureless (compared to windows) operating system. Real innovative.

Try working in the industry and having people non-stop saying crap like "why do i have to use XYZ my iXYZ is ten times better" only to explain to them why its not better, and why it cant function at all outside of browing the internet or playing angry birds, only for them to give you a blank stare and tell you that you dont know what you are doing because they should get to use (inferior, insecure, unreliable) apple stuff at work.

Then multiply that by 10000 times over the past few years.
