Apple Schadenfreude

This story warms the cockles of my evil, black, PC-loving heart. My favorite line in the story:

"We were there when Apple was hurting, we stuck with it, we nursed her back to health," Shipley, the Apple fan, wrote on his Call Me Fishmeal blog. "It's our money she has now, and she's turning on us now that she's rich."

Such sentiments might puzzle new Apple customers, who didn't think they were signing up for a cause when they bought an iPod or iPhone.

And that captures a lot of why I loathe Apple. They make electronic devices and sell them. Owning such devices should not create a movement or a cult. And now Dear Leader is revealing this truth? No wonder "the faithful" feel betrayed. And no wonder I got a cramp smiling while reading the whole thing.
