Apple, meet Microsoft: Welcome to the anti-trust world

While newspaper editorial offices generally use Macs, and while I agree that they still have some advantages over PCs (though I believe that gap has narrowed), as far as “upstart Apple” vs. “the evil Microsoft empire,” I don’t drink anybody else’s Kool-Aid and I don’t peddle anybody else’s mythmaking.

So, I find it funny that, on top of Apple czar Steve Jobs’ potentially increasing federal trouble with stock options, Apple is now being sued, by a private individual, over a “bundling” issue similar to what got Microsoft in trouble years back.
