In one magazine there was a long article about “pink marketingâ€. And Apple was named as a brand, which is really favorite of gay people and they spend a lot of money investing them to Apple products.
Sorry guy, when I walk the streets or going by the underground, looking at the people and earphones they have – then it has to be about 80% of all people around me gay. I think, Apple is so generally known company, it has to be accepted by all the groups of population the same.
To name Apple being “just gay friendly brand†could easily destroy its position on the market. Definitely, Apple’s products are expensive and gay people usually have money to invest in more expensive products and they like things, which have a clean design and excellent reputation, but Apple is the brand, which is known for its user interface and user interaction.
I really do not think, it can be that simple with Apple. It has to have more values, than just being “gay-friendly†brand. Apple is the love for everyone. People with Apple products /excluding iPod/ are the part of the community. And they are a part of the minority.
What do you think?

“To name Apple being “just gay friendly brand†could easily destroy its position on the market” Just who is doing that? Cool people appreciate Apple. Many cool people are gay. I’m old,uncool and not gay, and I like Apple. Gay Apple fans? So what? This is a pink herring.
