Never was a blog so aptly named.

Well the Steve-note was bad. Incredibly so.

When Apple stumbles, of late a rarity, it is worthy of mention.

Microsoft has been in mid-stumble for so long nobody notices any more.

If Apple is "lipstick on a pig" (whatever that means) then Microsoft must be "shit on a pig". No, "shit on a pig with trichinosis, and everyone eaten it and is going to die a slow death while Bill Gates laughs and reminds you there is no guaranty on the product except a pro-rated refund."

Yeah, that's it. If I were Microsoft I'd be thinking about changing my name and moving to another country. Otherwise having PR people is a waste of money.

More substantively, my point was that *if* you rely on homeruns, you better hit it out of the park. I'm pretty sure the mouse was a single...

Decent, but not spectacular, results beat speculation.

Nobody ever expected a mouse to be anything more than a practice swing in the on-deck circle. I'm sure you could come up with better examples of Microsoft duds if you didn't feel obligated to pump up the pageviews on your previous pieces.
