a very unique position

Given that unique means they are the only ones in that position, in what way does very unique make them even more the only ones in that position?
Almost unique, etc. are fine as they are graduations of non-uniqueness, but unique is as far as you can go along the scale...
Just being picky, so feel free to vote me down 🙂

@ aje21

You seem to have missed the concept here. We are talking about Apple, anything they do whether unique or not automatically makes it unique because Apple did it regardless.

Looks like Apple will be sticking with the retina display for at least 2 years. Time for other companies to leapfrog them!

Now to wait for all other phone manufacturers to say apple has bought their suppliers and put them out of buisness with their monopolistics buisness practices. "In order to sell a car, it must have tires. If we buy every tire in the world then only we can sell cars!"

Nothing Apple does is unique, unless you LOATHE Apple and think that everything they release is "Revolutionary" in some way.

But I have to admit, the design of most of Apples devices are almost never similar to anything on the market (besides ripoffs)

I have no idea what I'm saying.

Luckily in the USA, you are not forced to buy anything you don't want. Unfortunately you cannot do this in spite, since there are millions of people who will buy it anyways
