Poison Apple revisited
Quick Monday: I applauded the US antitrust prosecution of Microsoft. The company bundled the software and anyone with a 3rd grade education knew it.
Now, it's time for he feds to seize the offices of Apple, and put Steve Jobs behind bars. Not only are the products, I believe, intentionally manufactured to fail after a certain period of time - they are overpriced and technically overloaded to the point of unmanageability. Yet more evidence is mounting (Guardian), and it seems the consumer protectionists here in the UK may actually be waking up from their import-America slumber.
This is a metaphor for the world we're going to have in about 5 years. I've written on it before. Poor Eve, she got a rap for taking a bite - we're choking on them by the millions.
