Marco Arment – Customer culture:

"People who aren't willing or able to compromise on their needs regularly are much more likely to be Windows customers. The Windows message is much more palatable to corporate buyers, committees, middlemen, and people who don't like to be told what's best for them: "You can do whatever you want, and we'll attempt to glue it together. It won't always work very well, and you might not like the results, but we will do exactly what you asked for."
