Well I'll take a page from Intense Degree's book and say that those interested in it will have their reasons and I'll have my own against it and that's that.

It's fair enough if you guys have genuine aspects that you're excited about. What frustrates me is this notion that some people have that they have to own the next apple 'thing', just because.
