This is why I hate Apple

[TheAnimus]

No, not because the iPhone 4 was such a turd I had to take it back. That was afterall my fault for buying a launch day product and having high standards.

But this:

Ok, fair enough, we've a 50/200 moving average cross over that is -ve. Not quite the end of the world that the article writer claims, but this is the bit I like:

"You mean…" said the Investor warily "...it's not a double dip?"

"If only it was," replied the Chartist with an ironic smile.

"Then what, in heaven's name, is it?" The Investor's voice trembled as he spoke.

"I fear," replied the Chartist, his fingers tensing over the ancient runes etched into his iPad, "we are looking at nothing less," he hesitated, "than The Death Cross."

Fricken product placement in a beeb article.

But why do I hate it, because the iPad has no such app. Bloomberg on the iPad is crippled and doesn't allow such simple analysis.

I've already complained to the beeb about this.

For a company like the BBC who is so strict about product placement I am amazed that got through the editor.

I have a couple of those as friends. They don't react well whenever I call them Mactards.

I'm not sure why.
