Dan Lyons, that told me enough to just skip the article. He went off the crazy end a while ago. I also tend to skip articles trying to frame situations like this.

+Tom Cramer I wish that companies would actually go and do that - compete! I personally believe that the best future won't be with either Google, Apple or Microsoft being the next encumbant monopoly, but that diversity and choice give the best options for consumers. The fortune these companies put into patient litigation, aggressive licencing fees and slime ball advertising could far better be invested in making better products. That's what annoys me most about the whole ordeal.
