Ah, the perils of righteous indignation. As Tyler so wisely pointed out in his comment on yesterday's indignant post, Apple is likely no more guilty of abusive labour practices in China than many other well-known high-tech companies. Luckily for me, I did say that that was but one of my reasons for, um, not being as fully appreciative of the wonders of all things Apple as others. But, as everyone knows only too well by now, opening up that jam jar (Apple vs. PC) just creates a sticky mess that benefits no one. If anything fruit-derived is going to be opened, a nice bottle of red wine is just the thing.
