I really don't understand why people are getting so worked up of company X of Y being first or debunking Apple myths.... This is 'hacker news' which implies that a sizeable percentage of visitors are 'hackers', a species known for its appreciation of fact over fiction.

Here there be logic, cold hard facts and objectivity. Save the subjectivity and waffling for Emacs <-> Vi and the like.
