Why I Think Apple is Overrated
Listen, I understand there will be many fans out there who will disagree with my opinion of Apple and their products, but let me just say that yes, I have in fact used many products from Apple, including their computers, laptops, iPods, and of course, an iPhone 4s, which happened to be my first foray into smartphones.
