Although Apple spends millions in advertising to convince you otherwise,
Apple is (ironically) perhaps the most anti-choice/anti-freedom personal
computer company in existence, controlling both the Mac hardware and
software in ways that make Microsoft seem almost benign in comparison.
(Interested readers should explore this question: Why aren't there any Mac
clones?) Apple gets away with its behavior only because it's not a monopoly.
I'm glad Apple exists, because it does some interesting things. But to my
mind, if there's any one company you don't want to see take Microsoft's
place, it's Apple.

Thanks to uberGnomie, Russ Coover, for pointing out this paragraph from the latest LangaList. Fred rocks. He took the words right out of my mouth. Now, if only he could put a few more in there, because I'm not sure if I've got it in me to bang out a fresh editorial for tomorrow's issue. I'm still wondering where the hell my Dell is. Have you seen it? Damnit. Ah, I'm having too much fun poking around in Radio.
