I know I'm probably going to regret asking, but why the relentless Apple bashing?

We're "at the mercy" of all manufacturers if you want to use that type of hyperbole.
Yes, you get the apps from them but there are currently over 200,000 available for the iPad so it's not like they are choking off the supply.
Windows users are at the mercy of Microsoft.
Kindle users are at the mercy of Barnes and Noble.
Sick people are at the mercy of the drug companies.
And before you accuse me of being an Apple promoter I have several computers and devices running a variety of operating systems so I'm not in the cult. I don't think they have a monopoly in anything they sell and have a small fraction of most markets so you have choices just like you do with almost anything you buy. Why do you feel the need to attack this one company?
