An important decision reached

Dave brings up some good points about the Apple decision- though I’m not sure how much we can really trust the courts.

Here in California we’re for gay marriages and legalized marijuana - but the courts are going along with the fascists in Washington - on a lot of these issues.

I really don’t care about Apple - as they have tried to put me out of business on several occasions - so I’ll NEVER EVER own any Apple product - ever again. 

But its great to see them lose in court.  Warms my heart on a chilly Saturday morning.

The only question is: “will they ever learn from this?”  Dating back to the days of Guy Kawasaki - Apple was always bullying developers, pushing us around, telling us what we HAD to do.

I remember in 1994 - when they finally figured out who their customers were - creative types. It literally took them that long to figure it out.  “Welcome” is what I said.

They thanked me by ripping off the Apple Cafe proposal I had made to them - and doing it themselves - without us.

Ever wonder why Jobs says people should buy aniPod every year?

Cause that’s how long they last.

So I sure hope everyone knows how hypocritical Apple is.  Think about that - the next time you boot up.  Microsoft at least is honest about their sliminess.
