Same here, plus I work with geeks, so rooting was inevitable.  So I too
have a skewed perspective.  I see three kinds of technology owners.
1-Geeks, who will root their coffee-maker.  2- Grasshoppers, geeks in
training, who root with the help of a geek friend.  3 - Apple product
owners (kidding).  Obviously, the majority of the Apple crowd 'do prefer'
to be protected by the safety blanket provided by the mother ship.  Those
who do jailbreak/root, simply have found the defaults to be confining, and
they want to learn how to make it do more.  There is no single product to
satisfy everyone, but every product can be modded to fit the needs of its
owner, one way or another.
