Seriously, guys, do you have a non-Apple web address? On this page alone there’s 8 Apple posts to 7 non-Apple posts. Unless, of course, I’m the victim of a phishing attack by crazed fanboys.

In other news: The Nokia phone updater software is now available for Vista machines but not, apparently, for those with XP SP3. – Just in case anyone is interested.
