At the risk of getting my butt flamed off by all the MacHeads around here... I'd say that's because for a decent size chunk of people (both within and without the Apple community) Apple has become known more for form than function. Not saying anything good/bad/indifferent about function, but to much of the public, that's not what Apple is about, it's about spacey packaging and shiny new ever-smaller ipods every 6 months and the latest too-cool-for-school sheet metal (or rather plastic), not what's inside...
