The Macalope Weekly: Who writes this stuff?

08.09.2012

Will Apple's turn as ruler of the roost last so long, or will the ultimate business comeback story turn into the tale of an empire that too quickly fell victim to its own hubris?

What Gallaga calls hubris, the rest of us call the Apple double standard. Only Apple is expected to make a phone with no antenna flaws and only Apple is expected to fight against its competitors with one arm tied behind its back.

But other than that, Apple's story is exactly like a guy who makes meth.

Look out, Apple fans, because your brains can't repel conventional wisdom of this magnitude!
