This is just another over-reaction – one way or the other – to something Apple is doing.

This is just a tech company making a product announcement. Nothing more. But, like anything else Apple does it tends to roil contorted passions.

To compare a probable announcement of new iPods “Orwellian” is not only overstated but it’s just plain silly.

We should expect more from a Senior CNET editor.

Here’s something new and even more annoying: A phone call from a PR person telling me she will be emailing me a press release later. Argh! Just send it! [...]

Um. Chrome and Firefox both support HTML5. Safari on Windows fully supports HTML5. Open is open. The only amazing thing about Apple is that they can say “open” and “viewing requires a Mac” in the same sentence and there are people like you defending them.

I swear sometimes it feels like stockholm syndrome… Do you have any idea what Apple is doing to you??

Well I like that Apple is pushing their agenda for the HTML 5 standard. They are using the pulpit they have to continue to emphasize their technology choice. They called it out very specifically to grab attention – Apple once again has succeeded.
