The mainstream tech media and most analysts are delusional

Parallels Desktop 6 for Mac Via a list of questions, MacDailyNews part-time contributor “Joe Architect” starts 2011 wondering if we are in for yet another year of delusion regarding Apple’s ‘competition’ to the iPhone and iPad:

– Why are the mainstream tech media and most market analysts so blatantly jealous of Apple?

– What has Apple done to them other than make great products which improve the lives of millions of people around the world?

– What has Apple done to them other than lead the world in technology innovation; forcing all the other habitually lazy and brain-dead tech companies to raise their own bars?

– What has Apple done to them other than build an incredibly successful business which creates jobs?

– Why are they compelled to recklessly guide ignorant readers towards pain and suffering resulting from buying half-baked copycats?

– Are they all being paid by these other companies [“journalism as advertisement”], and if so should there not be proper disclosure?

– Why would anyone with a shred of credibility be compelled to advocate for wholly un-original thinking / products predominately drawn through intellectual property theft?

– How can they so blatantly compromise journalistic integrity by consistently manipulating facts in favor of so-called “competition”?

– Why do they consistently skew facts and statistics in an attempt to portray Apple products less favorably?

– Why can’t they just be honest and call out Android the being the unrefined, derivative plagiarism that it is… AT LEAST relative to the Apple originals?

– How can they possibly justify repeated casual use of “absurd correlations of equivalence” with statements such as “…as with the iPad, GalaxyTab and similar products.”

– Why do they regularly ignore profit comparisons (i.e. “business success”) in favor of highlighting channel-thrus resulting PREDOMINANTLY from price-slashing, rebates and buy-1-get-1-free offers?

The iPhone and iPad rightfully deserve to own these markets in manner similar to the iPod. Sorry, diluted Stuart Smiley “I’m good enough” failures, but Apple has built better products and a better business model and therefore in the present context “Wins.” Go see your quack therapist, get over it, and accept reality. It will be better for you and your readers/investor clients if you live in fact.
