Apple ships iPods with Windows Virus, (Link) and then blames Microsoft (Link).

That’s nice.

While they do admit that the majority of their iPod sales are to Windows users (thusly forcing them to use Windows based machines in the production facility), I fail to see how that is Microsofts fault for Apple (or the manufacturer) to keep a clean environment.

Sheesh. What nimwitts.

But as we all know, any press is good press.

For a great example of how a company should have handled it, rather than playing the blame game, see Apple compared to McDonalds in the link to the PC World Article.

C’mon Steve, get with it, we love you, and Apple, but please, let’s not pretend your crap doesn’t stink from time to time.

It’s clearly OK to own up to the eggs that Apple lays now and then.
