When Apple starts paying off legislators and bribing judges to outlaw the possession of Linux- and Windows-based PCs, you'll have a point. I don't see that happening, do you? Nobody is forcing you to live in Leave It to Beaver-land; you're just bitching because your cable company added an oldies channel that carries it.
- pyre 17y agoHuh? I just took Apple's logic and applied it to an extreme. I didn't say that the extreme example applies to the real world. You have to scale down the extreme example to fit it into the real world. The 'universe/world' here the equivalent of the 'iPad/iPhone.' Trying to claim that I'm really saying that Apple is controlling the world is either disingenuous or the result of an ill-fitting tinfoil hat.
