You sound surprised, Adrian
through the years, stories of compalints being removed from Apple's message boards, cease and desist orders to anyone with the tiniest of information, even anyone who dares blog negatively about Apple on their personal web sites; Apple places their image above everything else.

Apple sales are driven not by quality, but by the illusion of quality.

Why would this be of any surprise?
