I can think of lots of time the mainstream media played an Apple release as a disappointment. They do a few stories and then it's gone, lost in the data tsunami. No one will remember what CNN or Today said about the new iPhone in a week. No one remembers what anyone said about the iPad, which, as you may not recall, was met with a great deal of negative "just a big iPod" press. Lots of people were "disappointed", and Apple failed to manage expectations properly, or something.

That which doesn't kill you weakens you slightly and makes you less able to cope until you're completely incapacitated
