Like blaming Apple for the misdoings of Microsoft....
Someone had written a Slashdot article about deciding not to by a Lenovo computer.
Pictured: Niccolo Machiavelli
How dumb! It seems to me Lenovo would be loaded with computer nerds, insulting Lenovo in this situation would be like going after Dianne Feinstein for the wrongdoings of the Republican administration. One should stick up for one's friends. In the year 2007, Machiavellianism is supposed to be a bad joke, apparently some people haven't figured this out. Attacking Lenovo for the problems of the PLA, I think I saw something like this on The Brady Bunch a long time ago. Or was it Full House, when the twins were blamed for something that that neighbor kid did? Or maybe it was Urkel. Or was it on Little House, when Nellie Oleson breaks something in her parents' store and blames it on Laura Ingalls? Isn't that kind of plot structure on TV every night? Why do I, a Slashdot reader, have to put up with political philistinism from a bunch of people who can't stop showing off how smart they are in other areas? And why are we as a society producing all this electronic mediaware if people aren't learning anything from it? It's not like there is some shortage of sitcoms. And its not like this Myanmar situation isn't a real emergency that needs expert attention and thoughtful consideration instead of this long uninterrupted sociopolitical discussion group malpractice. Maybe some normal people in the Chinese government will decide to punish the liberal nerd community for this chronic malpractice by blaming Apple or Linux for the corporate deeds of Microsoft!
