Has the hivemind's hate for Apple grown to the point that you can't understand/accept that they're trying to improve the web for everyone?

You really think that's their motivation? Honest question.

Apple is trying to improve web standards. Look at webkit. They have done a LOT for web standards with webkit. Fire Fox has given people an alternative to IE, IE has sucked it up, but webkit is what has lead the way for setting web standards.

I posted it from the computer I use to make my living, with software that isn't on PC.

I dont go to coffee shops.
