The Simpsons take on Apple

The writers of The Simpsons have taken plenty of swings at Microsoft over the years but at last Apple has come in for some well placed barbs.

In the latest episode the mall in Springfield gets a Mapple store, and includes Mipods, Miphones and a great video of Steve Mobs, the head of the company. There then follows a series of well aimed jabs at iPhone pricing, Apple's advertising and the credulous nature of some Apple fanboys.

It's a joy to watch, especially Lisa's opening line - "It's so sterile!"
