Buy N Large wins. For most everyone. I've learned that most people want the Fisher Price internet, not the Testors 500 piece glue it model, no matter how much cooler the model is once its built.
It helps if you realize that there's nothing wrong with that. The smug superiority of techies starts to feel like a guy who spends every weekend tuning his car for track racing and just can't understand why anyone would ever want a factory-standard sedan (even though they only need to it to carry groceries).
To be honest this is sort of why I have a iPhone: it does what I want and it makes life easier for me. I'm glad the alternatives exist, because that's better for all of us, and I know plenty of people prefer them, but it doesn't mean I need to be interested in them as a customer.

I sometimes think the Wall-E dysfunctional future Earth could be the same as the Snow Crash one. I kept looking for a U-Stor-It.
