[citation][nom]watcha[/nom]Step 1. Release products with mass market appeal. Yeah, I hate when companies do that.Step 2. Brainwash owners of products into unthinking loyal drones. By this, I assume you actually meant 'ensure that the products deliver such good customer satisfaction that you establish a good brand reputation. Again, I hate when companies do that. Step 3. Test control of drones by releasing inferior broken new product and watch it sell out. By 'inferior broken', I assume you are referring to the one flaw which is on the IPhone 4 which in reality affects nobody at all, doesn't prevent it working, and doesn't detract from the several other ways in which the IPhone 4 is better than pretty much every other phone available?Step 4. Convince Drones any problem with new product is caused by them. As bizarre as it may seem for me to back this up, this is actually true. The people who desperately tried to find the 'pressure points' on the phone to get it to lose signal are not normal users of the phone. During normal use there are no problems whatsoever. Step 5. Convince Drones your values are their values and implement forced controls on your products. Yeah, I'm sure all the parent 'drones' needed convincing that their children shouldn't be sexting each other. Damn companies who implement policies that all parents agree with. Step 6. Convice Drones to lash out at others not sharing these values; and to push your products. Step 7. Global Domination. IT HAS BEGUN!Time to stock up on Ammo and Droids!This is pretty much nonsense.I am not an Apple fan boy, I'm not an Apple hate-boy either, I think either is pathetic. How can a grown man such as yourself, and pretty much everyone else on this forum, have such an insecure hatred for a COMPANY, pretty much based on the fact that they have an established reputation and a loyal customer following due to their past performance. ANY good company AIMS to deliver the goods to their customers on such a regular basis that they get some loyalty, to just blindly hate on a company for no logical reason is beyond pathetic, to be honest.[/citation]
It appears you are taking seriously a post that didn't take itself seriously in the first place (i.e a joke).
Besides, even if the post to which you were replying to was actually serious, i'd say you were enacting step 6 right about now...
