Equating Apple to Orwell's literary allusions to the British Labour Party of his time doesn't make much sense when Micro$oft is the IBM of our time.

Everyone's got an ideology of some kind, but it all comes down to who bakes the best cookies. They happen be Apple-flavoured.

"My recent novel [Nineteen Eighty-Four] is NOT intended as an attack on Socialism or on the British Labour Party (of which I am a supporter), but as a show-up of the perversions . . . which have already been partly realized in Communism and Fascism. . . . The scene of the book is laid in Britain in order to emphasize that the English-speaking races are not innately better than anyone else, and that totalitarianism, if not fought against, could triumph anywhere."
