The Macalope Weekly: Executive summary

10.09.2011

The Macalope has to type "GET IT? IT'S A CULT!" so many times that he really should set up a keyboard shortcut.

God forbid a company make well-designed devices and God forbid people enjoy using them.

Ugh, Smith's piece just goes on and on and on. And we're only on page one, as needs to maximize those page views and ad impressions.

We're talking about a company that forbids use of Adobe Flash on the iPad--Jobs claimed, ludicrously, that the software used by tens of millions of Americans every day didn't work--because that would allow competition to the media sold in the iTunes store.

Translation: I have no interest in investigating how lousy Flash is on other mobile devices because doesn't care if this piece is accurate. They paid for a screed and a screed they shall have!
