A Refreshing Change of Tune

Jim Connelly over at Medialoper.com has provided a refreshing antidote to all the fawning and free advertising for Apple that one cannot escape these days. While I'm sorry for his ongoing nasty problem -- as far as I can tell, he's comparing the impossibility of updating the iPhone 3 OS to the horror that once was updating Windows 95. Too many bytes under the bridge for me to recall, but it was the first of many horror shows, when Apple was in decline and IBM had already created a multi-tasking OS, that was mocked by the microsoft world. Anyway, Jim, remember the old adage, "Hardware doesn't make you happy." Repeat 10 times. Remember.  Oh, and Steve Jobs is not the same pirate in the garage anymore... he's head of a megacorp, with EPS to bolster. We're not in Kansas anymore....

Enjoy.  The comments are fun, too.  Ahhh....
