There's Perception and There's Reality

Joe Wilcox on Apple and Microsoft: http://www.microsoft-watch.com/content/operating_systems/the_great_double_standard.html?kc=MWRSS02129TX1K0000535

The blogosphere will praise Leopard as the next best thing ever and use it as more proof why Vista sucks (It doesn't). Meanwhile, there will be little good said about Microsoft's colossal 2008 fiscal first quarter results. Those people acknowledging the earnings results will blame Microsoft for trying to kill Linux and babies in Africa as reasons for its success. The perception: When Microsoft competes, it cheats. There is a double standard.
