Excellent blog
Perhaps none of this matters to Apple fans.

If you want proof of this, check out [url=http://blogs.zdnet.com/hardware/?p=230] Adrian's Poll [/url] which shows that 24% of Apple zealots think that Apple should charge them more for things that used to be free and have always been free in the Windows world.

What if Microsoft had these flubs in the span of 3 weeks?

The double standard of Apple zealots is astounding. They rail against future DRM in Vista while Apple is the #1 seller of DRM infested content and puts a DRM chip in every single Mac sold.

They make fun of Windows blue screens when it is actually the Mac that blue screens.

Nice blog. Watch it get "the big thumbs down" from all the Apple zealots.

PS You have a slight typo in the 3rd last sentence of the blog.
