I don’t really care about Pogue one way or the other. He writes some useful high-level consumer stuff (like about pocket projectors). But I do have to kind of sympathize with him for some of the hostile reaction he got to his generally positive piece on the N1. I mean, come on. Idiot? Incompetence? Pogue? Please. Upon reflection, though, I do feel something may have passed me by personally. I’ve been one of those open-source, Apple-loving, Microsoft-hating kind of guys for so long, I thought I’d only have to go to war with the old order. Now I might have to be an open-source, Google-loving, Apple-hating, Microsoft-equivocating kind of guy? Wow. Not sure, here. Given an option, I’ll always pick a fight, but I think I’m gonna need the afternoon to at least look at my new N1 before I don the shield and brandish the sword (although I admit, doing a little burning and pillaging of Apple’s group-hug, no central checkout, ain’t you lucky you can shop here “store” might be timely).
