Happy iPhone and iPad user here... but I can't help but think Apple is walking down an unfortunate path these days.

The recently refreshed MacBook Air and Mac mini really smacked me in the face. Astonishingly, ridiculously high prices for the specs. Upgrades at even crazier prices, even by Apple standards. Such a shameful show of greed and contempt for their customers.

I can't help but think Apple has decided it'll be the brand for rich people only (and people who haven't yet maxed out their credit), and to hell with everyone else. These days, the Genius Bar seems more interested in selling you upgrades rather than fixing your problems.
