If you've not yet physically tried one, I suggest that you do so. :-)

I have used *all* the Apple equipment, as I do volunteer work in a school
environment.

I also buy a phone every few months, as it's my gift-giving process, where
I tie the phone to the person, which means often it's Android but sometimes
the person wants Apple equipment.

I also have many iPads, and just bought a new one this last month, so, I'm
fully familiar with empirical facts about Apple equipment.

In particular, I find that if I ask a TECHNICAL question of the Apple
newsgropus, facts aren't their forte.

Why?
I don't know why.

I just know that it doesn't matter who asks the question, nor what the
question is, if it involves technical facts, it won't be answered correctly
on the Apple newsgroups (as this thread amply proved).

Someone could as a question about cables, and it won't be correctly
answered on the Apple newsgroups (see recent experiments proving this).

They could ask about Mac or iOS funcdtionality, and almost always, if not
always, the answer will not only be wrong, but it will contain fantastic
fabrications of imaginary functionalty that never existed.

It could even be about batteries, where the fantastic excuses blaming
battery technology will be amazing to read, where on the adult newsgroups,
people actually understand battery technology.

It could even be about bugs, where the first thing that the Apple
Apologists do is blame Google for Apple's bugs, even when it's well known
that the head of software engineering blames Apple Marketing schedules for
the plethora of horrid bugs in Apple devices of late.

Given these are all facts that are in the public record:

etc.

The empirical result is that Apple Usenet posters are *different* than
normal adults.

In general, many real-world questions & experiments clearly show:
a. Apple Usenet posters are shockingly devoid of technical skills,
b. And they incessantly fabricate completely imaginary Apple functionality,
c. And yet, they're adept at endless off-topic silly semantic games.
