Good article. This forum used to get all strung out about Samsung and its piratical methods (essentially using Apple as a free R&D department). That tone of thread seems to have died the death but the legacy remains. You buy cheap, you get cheap. Apple has stuck to its model of building great hardware supported by great operating systems and software and has won out in the end. People don't mind paying for quality.
