Did you happen to notice that jrockway doesn't use MS Windows? Perhaps you should read the last line of jrockway's post before insinuating hypocrisy with a reference to Microsoft.
Just to spell it out a bit: to criticise Microsoft or PC vendors is hardly the same as criticising whoever jrockway is. It certainly doesn't imply he's a hypocrite, since I don't know him/her and cannot, therefore, comment on their morals or integrity. It was merely a flip comment pointing out that yes, Apple do indeed release imperfect products, but so do dozens of other companies and basically we see it as not such a big deal.
Even if I were criticising jrockway as a person, why on earth would you GAS? I'm sure he/she is quite capable of repudiating me him/herself if it were necessary. Fortunately, he/she probably has the good sense to see my offhand comment for what it was: just an offhand comment, not a personal criticism.
