This is your brain, this is your brain addled by Mac fanboy insanity

Wow. How batshit are Mac fanboys? Totally batshit, that’s how batshit Mac fanboys are. (In the interest of full disclosure, I should note than I’m composing this post on my sweet Windows 3.1 box, but only because my Apple IIe is out of commission following an unfortunate Oregon Trail-related incident. So, you know, I keep it real.)
A reporter asked a question of a company’s CEO at a press conference, at the suggestion of the company’s own PR shop, for a perfectly interesting story. Insane, I know. Steve Jobs is not a deity. He’s not even a Bono. He’s just the guy in charge of a giant international corporation, a giant international corporation that, like all giant international corporations, is no doubt at least a little envious of the press policies of this little group of forward-thinking fellas.
What’s that? Walt Mossberg says “iWork simply isn’t as powerful or versatile as Microsoft Office?” That’s one year in prison and a $130 fine on planet Mac, pal.
