The two aren't even comparable. If you can't justify one when you could get a V6 Mustang for less then get the pony car. I couldn't justify getting the V6 Mustang no matter how much less it was.

What matters is subjective but some of us deal with corners. If dragging is all you do then this isn't the car for you. Use the right tool for the job.

Everything. If you want leather dashes, fancy inlays, etc then you're doin' it wrong if you're shopping the BRZ. Or, if you must have both then take it to a custom shop and pony up for the fancy interior. Consider the focus of the car when shopping. This is an inexpensive, fun, light, focused, RWD car designed for…

It's important when the engine can't pass emissions testing.

"Why would Google give one of their selling points for Android away for free to iOS users?"

"There's nothing revolutionary about it"

No one user's preference — or even that of the people that one person knows — is relevant in this context. Different people can and do find various features to be of varying usefulness. Why does it matter how often others do or don't use a feature? Use what works for you and let others use what works for them.

Nav apps aren't one-size-fits-all. Google Nav is certainly a good app but that doesn't mean that everyone prefers it. You might need the level of detail in satellite view. I have no need for it. Don't assume that your needs/wants are universal no matter what the topic. People can and do prefer different solutions…

"based on the fact that the adapter has an audio jack"

"theres no reason for them to stick with a proprietary connection"

Redundant. Do you know what "theory" means?

Some day people will realize that it's stupid to assume that USB and the dock connector are equivalent. Some day people will realize that it's stupid to assume that their needs/wants are universal. If a standard connector is a must have then buy what suits you. The rest of us that rely on dock connector accessories…

Never had that problem with micro USB devices.

I'm no audiophile but there's certainly an advantage to line out via the dock connector versus going through the noisy headphone amp or dealing with A2DP.

"Talk about resemblance...."

Why not stop assuming that your needs/wants are universal? If I want a glass of OJ I'm not going to eat an orange.

Take a look and see for yourself. They're on display in stores. Clearly, not everyone agrees on its importance, especially since people may have differing priorities when shopping (budget, etc).

Increasing what? Did you even bother to read? The blurb above is about adding retina displays to products that don't have it.

"Am I the only one wondering what on god's green earth you'd want a 2560x1600 13" display for? "

Subjective matter. Try them out in person and see for yourself. What causes eyestrain in one person may not in the next.
