"And if you're going to make one that runs on both systems don't lie about it and lead people to believe they can't have one unless they run OSX!" 'Course, I suppose you can say that, after describing what you think was wrong with their handling of this in great detail, that this statement wasn't you saying Apple DID lie, you were just giving forceful advice for what they should not do - after asserting they were guilty of doing this. That would be more "polite" I suppose.
