&gt; It would be nice if people writing &quot;mythbuster&quot; articles did some elementary fact checking.<p>Yeah, I&#x27;m sure that a site ran by a former Apple exec&#x2F;Be Inc. founder and one of Europe&#x27;s most successful tech journalists  absolutely doesn&#x27;t do any fact checking.<p>Nerds can quibble all they want about how usenet was totally a social network and tablets were totally a thing in 1995 and smartphones were totally invented by Nokia, but the reality is that if you get out of the nerd echo chamber and ask normal people, for them tablets start with the iPad, smartphones start with the iPhone, and social networks start with Facebook.<p>The problem with always wanting to be &quot;technically correct&quot; is that it makes you miss the bigger picture.
