I both empathise and sympathise with Michelle. Though *they* do a sterling job [allegedly], *they* scare the bejezus out of me and I wouldn't shed a tear if the whole bally lot of *them* where dumped in the ocean amid man-eating and above all hungry sharks.
Actually I might shed a tear, but only for the gold in *their* fillings.
B'tards!

I have severe munchies, so I am warming some lovely home made winter stew and a loaf of Morrison's finest discount garlic bread.

Morphine, you could bend her like a pretzel throw her in the truck/boot and take her anywhere and she wouldn't care.

2010: Microsoft introduces windows phone with flat design and bold colours
reviewers: blocky, childish, tasteless, etc...
2013: Apple introduces iOS 7 with flat design and bold colours
reviewers: stylish, fresh, best thing since the invention of toast, etc...
Sigh.

Unfortunately, a majority of tech reporters are Apple Fanboys. So this is not surprising.

This has been happening for over 30 years to my knowledge. The typical tack is Microsoft = Big Corporate nastiness, controlling and fascist*. Apple = fun, funky liberal choice. The irony being it was always hard to use non-Apple hardware or software on your Mac. Even now things are severely vetted. This persists, even though Apple is now bigger than MS, largely because Apple's graphics/DTP has always been ahead of the Windows-based world, so all the "creative" types and journalists use them. More worrying is the fact that students in the US seem to be given a Mac computer (not sure, but I think I read this), this will lock many of them into the ecosystem as they'll find it too hard to get out of, and a new generation of propagandists will be born. Rarely have I heard a Microsoft user be so cultish about their IT choice. I've known a few Mac people like like this, they go all wide-eyed like they've joined a religion when they talk about Macs, and when you point out, for example, Apple restricts the types of software you can install from the store on your own hardware, they actually try and warp-logic their way into "it is for our own good". If I want an app that simulates a pair of jiggling women's boobies, then I want an app that does that, it's not in my interest to be told I can't for my own good.
