There are some parts of this that get a little irritating.  So Apple sells
laser printers that aren't postscript?  Big deal; they've been doing that for
nearly a decade.  They're low-end printers, they've always been low-end
printers, and they can't be anything else.  Here's a secret:  Apple isn't
the only company that does that, either.  HP was really slow to get on the
postscript wagon.  They still sell non-postscript printers.  So do a lot of
other people.

If you buy a bargain printer and expect it to do everything a more expensive
printer would do, that's your problem, not Apple's.  Read the specs before
you buy.  Ask around.  Use your brain.  Here's a hint:  if a spec-sheet
does NOT say "it supports x" then the device doesn't support x.  If it does
support x, they'll want you to know about it.  Here's another hint:  find
out what a printer does *before* you buy it, rather than bitching afterwards
that it doesn't do whatever.

But here are a couple of things that really tick me off:

Making a purchase without investigating first, then blaming the vendor or
the manufacturer.  There's no such thing as a perfect vendor or manufacturer.
There is such a thing as an intelligent consumer.

BTW, most flames I've seen on the net accomplished only one thing:  
discrediting the flamer.  Yes, there are exceptions.  But don't assume that
just because YOU are the one who is angry that you will be one of those
exceptions.  The odds are against you.
