Except that I am communicating directly with the person who then has a chance 
to reply, whereas Steve Jobs is not here to defend himself, his actions or 
those of his company's.

I don't debate the point. I agree with you in fact. What sets me back is the 
particular loathing some of the comments about Apple and Steve Jobs seem to 
indicate. Go ahead and say you think Apple is wrong. I think they have been 
wrong about a lot of things. There are some things they did with Server I am 
fairly incensed about. But isn't calling Steve Jobs a dictator and control 
freak in another category all together?

either. But let's not continue this any further. You seem to be very upset 
about all of this. Perhaps I've struck a nerve. My apologies.
