Maybe this will drive the point home to those who don't understand: Can you
get a Rolls Royce for the cost of a VW? Why not? Aren't they both cars?
There are differences, but I hope they get the idea? A good reputation is
built on quality from the ground up. You won't find a Rolex for the cost of
a Timex.

Hi Trouble,
That's an apt comparison. A lot of people gripe and complain about the
price of an Apple but they don't seem to realize the cost comes from the
fact Apple strives to use high grade hardware and software. That is why
they have a reputation of having better computers than say some cheap
e-machine. PCs on the other hand tend to be very cheap, because they are
largely composed of mass produced cheap parts.
Apple's software standards are just as high as their hardware ones. Yes,
unfortunatelyit sets restrictions on developers, but in perspective it
makes sense. Apple is just attempting to get the best possible user
experience for everyone. Therefore developing an app that is exclusively
for the blind that has no use to a sighted person isn't necessarily
providing an equal user experience for everyone.

Apple took a step forward in making there products accessible with no
added cost to the consumer. True, there products are not cheap, but your
getting the best in parts. If you got the same type of parts for your PC.
You would find out that the cost is not much more than what Apple is
selling for. That is the one reason why PC's did better in the market,
because the usage of lesser grade parts.
Its almost like cars. You can buy the same car with all the bells and
whistles or get that car without for a whole lot cheaper. Apple don't
give you that choice. They say its all or nothing and you get quality.
