They try and fix one problem here and then make everything else better. The catch? You don't get there without breaking a few eggs and scrambling them on a MacBook Pro. It's hot. Too hot for its own good.Also, are iPhone owners snobs? No. You judge everyone on an individual basis, especially the people that you would go out with on a date.
