Re-read his article....there are no angry words there.
People who don't like Apple tend to see everything Apple does as an attack on them and their choices, but it's like the egocentric person who thinks everything is about them - Apple can be acting in their own interests and not in yours *without* wishing *you* harm. I don't see Apple lining people up and forcing them to buy iPods, iPads, iPhones or iMacs, so, y'know, people can and will vote with their feet if Apple does stuff they don't like. For me, not supporting Flash on iP*s doesn't outweigh the other good things about the platform and devices, and I like the new emphasis on supporting web standards. Guy
