I love stories like this where the headline asks a preposterous question but does it as if maybe the answer could be “yes” but then the story just goes ahead and tells you, nope, it’s just as you thought, the answer is “of course not.” Like stories where they go, “Could mold in your refrigerator be the cure for your flu?” or, if you’re watching Fox, “Could a no-torture policy in Iraq hurt the stock market and destroy the value of your portfolio?”

In this case the question is, “Could a Dell/Apple Partnership Work?” Slow day on the news desk and they had to come up with something, I guess.
