WTF Stories of the Week

I'm happy that Steve Jobs made and continues to make Apple and Pixar possible. I enjoy all of the Apple and Pixar products that I decided to buy.

For some reason, people have been down on the "cult of Apple" when Jobs was in charge, when he wasn't in charge, and when he came back again. They attacked Apple fans when their computer market share was 3% and when they dominate the smartphone market.

Personally, I'm not an apologist - but I find the vitriol disturbing, particularly when it comes from my friends.

Hmm, perhaps you'd be less disturbed if you weren't taking a shot at Steve Jobs as also a shot at you? And perhaps people would be less down on the cult-of-apple if they didn't take any questioning of apple as a personal slight against them.

You're right.

Walt Disney was indeed a douchebag.
