Rumours have it Apple made it's own chip. But that's beside the point. I really really don't understand this "no innovation, blah" attitude. I think people parroting it have the least chance to innovate at anything, they are condemned to mindlessly repeat the same stuff over and over again, and that staff is not true most of the time.

Ant btw, Gruber does criticise Apple sometimes. Those who read what he writes know that.

Well I doubt he'll be winning many new converts with this article. It is dense with straw-clutching and credulity. Some it seems to be simply borne of delusion. This sentence, for example:

"The bored-by-the-iPhone tech press/industry experts surely value niceness, but they do not hold it in the same top-tier regard that Apple does. They are not equipped to devote an amount of attention to niceness commensurate with the amount of effort Apple puts into it."

is the fruitiest thing I have read in a while
