Comment Re:Harbingers? or just early adopters? (Score 2) 300
Its not early adopters, its a specific subset of early adopters. I highly suspect that this subset is drawn to these products for one of two reasons: First, anti-advertising, meaning that they are attracted to products whose advertising campaigns suck and something about that suckitude or quirkiness draws this subset in. Second, the underdog lovers. Because of bad advertising or press, writing is on the wall early that the product isn't going to launch well, and this subset then looks to buy the "underdog" product.
