Someday You'll Hate Apple (And Google Too)
jfruhlinger writes "Think today's world, where Apple is the innovative underdog, Google is the company that does no evil, and Microsoft sits atop its throne as ruler of an evil empire. Will this state of affairs last forever? You must not remember the days when everybody loved that scrappy upstart Bill Gates. Don Reisinger muses on the fickleness of consumer loves and hates. 'It's that same [level of] success and its own questionable privacy practices that will lead to Google's PR downfall and propel it into a position of disdain going forward. Trust me, the future of Apple and Google may look bright from an economic standpoint, but these companies will be hated one day too. Sad, but true.'"

No, it's true. I hate Apple. And to be fair most of the troll posts came from me. I single-handedly posted over 4.7 million anti-Apple messages over the past years to newsgroups, forums, email chain letters, viagra spams, and various others. It's all part of my, Operation: Black Turtle Neck? Strangle!
You forgot:
- QuickTime for Windows
- Brushed Steel
On second thoughts, make that any Apple product for Windows

It's not math. It's maths. At least it is where I come from.
Regardless, apart from some whining douchebags (that would include you), everyone understands what the sentence means. If you can't, then you're too stupid to be using a computer, and probably ought to be taught how to drool less.
