The walled garden is the future of computing.
These days it seems like almost everybody (at least almost everybody in the technology world) has made bashing Apple their new favorite past time.
One of the complaints I hear again and again is that Apple’s mobile operating system that runs every iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch are designed based on the “walled garden” philosophy - meaning that you can only install approved apps on the device from Apple’s App Store unless you throw all caution (and your warranty :)) and jailbreak your device.
