Who wants this?
people who think owning apple is a status symbol. that's who.
and it's the majority of consumers. apple has a very high attachment rate/image for the US consumer. especially among the upper middle class where not having an apple product/iphone is considered a mark of poverty.
This, unfortunately is universally true. It’s pure superficial nonsense, but such is a large % of humanity.
