What the hell is wrong with Microsoft?

I’ve never really understood the devotion of die-hard Apple fanatics. You know the type: the ones who have owned all four versions of the iPhone, the ones who think the Apple TV was a good idea, the ones who will argue with a straight face that Aperture can be just as good as Photoshop.

Panic spurs politicians and bureaucrats into saying and [...]
