The Macalope: Make it a double standard
On Tuesday the Macalope brought you Hadyn Shaughnessy’s valuable opinions about an Apple product that doesn’t exist yet: the iWatch (spoiler: He thinks it’ll be a dud).

That’s hyperbole, of course (it’s not just for breakfast anymore), but not by much. The double standard at work here is undeniable.
Not once, but twice this week Shaughnessy has graced Forbes’s hallowed virtual pages (haha) to tell us how super-awesome the Galaxy S4 is.
“The Galaxy S4, Samsung’s Last Act in Apple’s Shadow.”
