I still think they were making a joke there more than anything else.
But maybe that's just the way I see it.

Also, I don't see why people can call Apple "arrogant" for what they
said.  I mean, sure they poked at Microsoft, but they also said that
they're MORE upset with themselves.  That doesn't sound so arrogant!
