Can you imagine an Apple TV:
It will be priced twice as much as any other TV.
It will immediately be classed as innovative because it is 0.001mm thinner than the rest.
It will be missing standard functions like colour, brightness and volume which will all be deemed not necessary by Apple zealots.
It will use an LCD claiming millions of colours but you will only get a few hundred thousand.
It will overheat.
It will break down and when you complain about it all the Apple zealots will blame you for buying a revision 1 product.
When you turn it on you will be greeted by a picture of Steve.
The remote will only have 1 button.
You can only watch Apple approved shows. If you want to watch your own movie you will have to submit it for approval, wait several weeks. have it rejected because the storyline was similar to an Apple approved movie only to find out your next door neighbour got the same one approved.
After 2 years they will bring out another TV and discontinue all support for yours.
Colour, brightness and volume will be added in and hailed as innovotive new features.
