People are funny. A lot of folks, too many IMO, want to know that they have THE best product of a particular type. They can't handle the fact that there are other pretty good options out there. They may even go as far as to wish the other options would fail and be killed off. I read it here again and again even within the Apple product line. "Apple wouldn't dare put out product y so similar to product x. No one wants product y and it will surely fail." As if they are somehow threatened by folks having another option and that their own purchase now lacks absolute clarity.
