Nothing, this is a religious crusade, and facts don’t matter.

Apple needs to be tarred and feathered for its sins of taking a different path to the rest of the industry.

Nintendo did it back in the 80s. Court should have shot that down right then and there.

> sins of taking a different path to the rest of the industry

s/taking a different path.*/creating a serfdom.

s/taking a different path.*/behaving like John Deere.

s/taking a different path.*/making Richard Stallman cry.

s/taking a different path.*/taxation without representation.

s/taking a different path.*/handicapping every platform (web, flash, etc) but theirs, capturing 50% of Americans, making iPhone their only computer, then forcing every single other company to wear a chicken suit.

Utter nonsense.

This is the religious programming in all its glory. Brought to you by the same people that call Apple users sheep.
