I appreciate a free-wheeling debate. I like them more, in person, so I hope to meet you over a virgin Pina Colada (I'm a buccaneer who doesn't drink grog, go figure...) and we can sling education statistics and obscure references from social science at each other (be ready to discuss ethnomethodology and radical constructivism, or else I will drink your milkshake.)

When someone buys a piece of shit Nokia knock-off, do Mac people pop in and say "How very Microsoft?"
I am seriously tired of people implying that I am some tasteless hipster brat. Do I bother you little shits about living in your parent's basements? Do I ask you about your Captain Janeway porn?
Macs might cost more, but they aren't 10,000 times more expensive than a PC. They're usually less than 1.5x more. Do you argue that getting a $6 burger at a place like Chili's is a waste of money when you can get perfectly adequate one at McDonald's for a dollar?
Christ, it's like you WANT to argue over everything.

The truth is, three or four people will collect on this. The designer, the person who sold it, and the people who sold them the materials.
Get real. If you think one cent from this transaction will go toward someone who makes less than a few hundred thousand a year, you're kidding yourself. Massive amounts of money float around these circles and it go nowhere.

I am the owner of the above iPhone. I'd be lying if I said I don't care what you think. I do care. In fact, I care that my iPhone had the desired effect - to wit, pissing you off.
I don't care if it looks good or if it's tacky or if it even works. It creates resentment and irritation across a wide swath of people.
Any further responses can be directed to the intern who my assistant's secretary told to write this on my behalf.
Enjoy your miserable existence in the Great Recession. I'll be riding it out in style. Now piss off!
Yours etc.

$3,164,000 is enough to end starvation in several African countries.

I'm as much for charity as the next person. I just find it massively hypocritical to be making a stand about it on a site that exists because of consumer excess.
$3 Million or $399. Either one could have been "better" spent elsewhere.
