AppleBerry Predicted?

dr_fatty writes "The Globe and Mail is reporting that analyst Peter Misek, who predicted a partnership between Research in Motion and IBM, is now predicting a partnership between Apple and Rim. The predicted result? The AppleBerry. 'Such a deal would have huge merit because each company lacks what the other provides. RIM wants a firm foothold in the consumer market and Apple doesn't have a presence in the booming wireless data sector, he said.'"

    Since when do slashdot headlines or summaries show any evidence of reading comprehension or writing skills on the part of the submitter, or editing skills on the part of the editor? It's apparently not even worth bringing up. I really do wish they would at least change the "editors'" job titles though, since they publicly refuse to edit.

    The new layout just became active for my account and I can't stand it. Can't even find "new layout goes live" to properly grouse about it. When I enlarge the fonts as I like to do in Firefox, text is mashing over top of other text. I hate the first column. How do I get rid of the whole darn thing? And two of the sections in the first column refuse to remain closed. Light layout is no improvement. I want my serif font back, boxes that look like boxes, and a paucity of useless columns. Don't moderate me -1 troll, moderate me -10 sour beyond all recognition.
