It sounds apologetic to him because he's more interested in tribalism than business or technology. It's not unlike much religious fundamentalism- the pursuit of truth takes a back seat to the pursuit of feeling like you're right about things, especially if it means you get to hate a caricature of some other group of people and blame some of your personal disappointments on them.
A similar force seems to drive politics, or at least motivates disturbingly huge blocs of voters. :(
- baldfat 12y agoHow is it good business sense to have 5 years support for hardware? I have much older hardware doing very productive things also my non-profit couldn't afford to upgrade every desktop every five years and update every desktop's OS every year.
- baldfat 12y agoWait saying that 5 years hardware support is to short is wrong and that yearly updates in OS makes me into a religious Anti-Apple Zealot and Tribalism? I don't like Apple's business practices, hard to hack devices and technology philosophy doesn't mean I am Tribal. I have many machines that are over 5 years old.
