I never said the lock-in came from anywhere but from "within" me. Allow me to simplify:
(apple user experience) - (annoying policies) > (everbody else's user experience)
Now, this is just my opinion. You might think Linux on the desktop is great, or Windows doesn't make a bad workstation. But I think everybody else has such a godawful UX, I don't know where else to turn.
If someone else managed to couple a great UX with polite policies, I'd switch. Immediately.
