While the apple hate is indeed quite unsightly at times, I can't help but side with Samsung on this. I won't say apple should "die", "burn", or anything of the sort. I just hope they can somehow be converted from their patent-trolling ways, and that this opportunity might be one that contributes towards this goal.
I refuted him saying that they exploit Chinese workers. And I kept it simple for avoiding taxes. Everyone does do it so why should anyone expect Apple to do otherwise? I don't see anything wrong with it. They're making use of legal loop holes which save them money and consequently bolster the company. That's their only concern.

iOS is utter crap, moreso w/o a jailbreak.
That's your opinion. I think iOS 5 is great, and iOS 6 is fantastic. And I have used the Nexus 7 too so I've had a comparison against the latest version of Android.
The F700 doesn't look like the iPhone. All that's similar is that it's black and is a rectangle shape.
EDIT: Was thinking of the LG Prada when I wrote this, not the F700.

iPad was just a copy of the tablet pc invented in 2002 with ios, iMac is just another AIO, and MacOS isn;t optimized.
Not quite. If it was just a copy then it would've run OS X. There were ARM based tablets running custom OSes back then, but none of them were successful. With the iPad Apple got the design, hardware and software all right -- they didn't try too early and they didn't leave it too late.
iMac is a great all-in-one. I've had a look at a lot of all-in-one's (online) and none of them compare to the iMac. And what? Of course Mac OS X is optimized.

And no Apple did not make the market for laptops or thin laptops. Technology just progressed naturally towards thinner laptops.
Apple has directed the market though. For thin laptops, for smartphones, for tablets (which they practically made), and now they're directing the market towards high resolution displays.
