I've been to an Apple store for a problem once. My son shattered the LCD on my wife's MacBook. Yes, it wouldn't have happened if I had a Dell, but that's the price/performance tradeoff. I thought the Apple store was silly having to make an appt, deal with the Apple genius etc...but in the end they fixed it at a reasonable price and within a few days. Very happy with the service.
I have no Apple superiority complex. I do think they put a lot more investment in the whole user experience than do PC makers. Some people don't care, fine, do what you want...
And BTW, nobody hooks a guitar up to an iPad, that's just silly

if it was a PC you could have fixed it yourself & cheaper.
Our 4 PCs are all laptops, and they are all bulletproof stable, start in seconds load in seconds, were 25% the cost of apples, and run any software, use any parts, and in general, kick ass.
My phones are droids. I want to load in my music... no itunes, I just hook it up to my PC and it appears as a new "drive" and i copy the folders over. If I then want to put that music on another copmuter. hook up the phone to that PC, and the drive appears and I put it over.
The phone recognizes you have music on the phone and it is arranged and access very intuitively.
Same with pictures. No itunes, no BS. just hook up the phone and copy over the pics. to whatever PC you want.
all the same apps.
I have used Iphones and Macs. never a IPad. but the droid tablets are pretty sweet too.... And you've got a bunch of companies competing to make droid devices, so they keep getting better faster. COMPETITION MAKES TECHNOLOGY GREAT. Apple has done everything they can to squash any competition. They suck!
