Apple = Singapore

Steve Jobs = Lee Kwan Yue

Sleek shiny interface = neat tidy country

Tethered product-line = nepotism and corporatism

Attractive to shallow trendoids = attractive to shallow libertarians

Good for graphics applications = good for graphics workers

Small market share = little red dot

Real business is elsewhere = real world is elsewhere
