Apple does suck, only people that need their hand held while computing will disagree. I am glad Steve is dead and hopfully rotting in is grave!

You are an idiot, not much else to say to describe you. If this was 1870, I would walk up to you and shoot you in the face.

Nope.. Microsoft AND Apple BOTH suck! :)

With Mircrosoft the OS is trash. With Mac the hardware is trash- plus all the software restrictions.

The computer is an appliance. It should do what I want it to do. If I buy software it's MY disk. I should be able to run it on any computer I desire. That's why I have a "pc" Intel i7 that boots Winblows, OSX, AND Linux. And I use Linux 90 percent of the time. I built the computer selecting each component. It all works perfectly. Apple's software is nice to use but you dont have to buy an Apple computer to run it. A "PC" doesn't ALWAYS run Windows. I beleive soon this argument will be obsolete.

The games I can run natively, I do. Anything else, I just boot into Windows and run them there.

I'm an Apple user from back in the pre-mac days, and I agree completely with your point about the company. I still like their products, but it's been a painful road (Think OS 9). OS X was their leap to the BSD kernel, and gave them what they needed to build the iPod and later the iPhones. Brilliant move. What was quite the opposite of brilliant was their continued insistence that you needed to buy their overpriced hardware to run what really is a nice OS. When Leopard came out I thought to myself: “This is it, they'll finally release OS X for the masses so it can gain the market share it deserves!” But, no, they would rather have control than market share… It is thus that I am slowly beginning to actually hate them and their stupid proprietary form factors that prevent me from making the simplest hardware repairs or upgrades.

I don't think either OS is better than the other. Apple Vs. Windows will continue to be a great rivalry which will continue long after I'm dead. Unless we all die on 21st December 2012 (Thanks Mayan civilisation and your stupid Calendar! :)

Mac's are a brilliant alternative to PC's. But picking a side isn't a crime. It's your right of passage to pick and choose. It's only that financially, a Mac isn't a reasonable option for me at this point in time that I chose a Windows Laptop.

Without the rivalry neither would ever strive to push eachother's boundaries and try to 'out-do' one another to bring out quality products.

But saying that - Where's YOUR 'iPhone' alternative Windows! eh? eh?...I didnt think so - Take that! Apple FTW!

Oops - did I let it slip? :s

Apple won't sue you for running Mac on a windows based computer. They can, but they won't since it's not worth it.

Sorry, reading too fast + poor english.
I don't get the point though, it seems to be a sort of criticism of fanboyism. it's not very well build.

My dualbooting macbook disagrees, but to each their own.

Yes, yes you did miss it, along with a chunk of the article itself:

"In fact, this was one of the main things Apple advertised in the early days. Remember the 1984 Apple commercial in which a rebel throws a hammer through a screen thatʼs brainwashing people? It stands for the freedom of technology and how to use it. Exactly the opposite is happening now 25 years later."

Good job being a troll.

I use linux because I don't have to register my product or sign any contracts. :D Not even when I bought my computer. Usually windows wins even more when you buy a pc and stick linux on it after remove windows. They got your money AND the don't even have to support it. I DON'T want a mac because it's wrong to install Mac OS on a PC (They will sue you.) and I can't have just linux on a mac because they try to stop me. Sounds bad on both sides to me. I will sit happy in the corner and watch them punch each other out. Thank you.

1. You should stop writing, the only interesting thing in this article is : "Truth is, almost any Windows application has a little (or big) brother that runs on Macintosh." But it's not developped so you can talk as much as you want but it's totally useless. Nobody has learn something from your article, since it's only your point of view.

2. Mac OS X implements DRM, so it's not really free of usage. http://www.defectivebydesign.org/
We can't say iTunes is an open platform since Apple has broken voluntarily the compatibility with non-Apple devices.
You can't say using Mac OS is ethically acceptable.

3. Did i missed some irony ?

I won't – me too — There is a cool automator tool on Apple's download site – you copy text (I have not seen a limit yet) from your favorite news site, articles, whatever – paste it into the little free app – it takes it and makes it an AIFF file, which you can then put into iTunes and play back as audio on the iPod… pretty slick if you want to read an article, but no time… just copy it in PRINT view so you get all the text on one page….

I guess we would have to disagree about Apple (or whatever topic du-jour we decide on) — Hope all is well for you my friend.

Sorry – thought it was Rich. No problem, I was just giving him a hard time… But since it is you, and I don't think I know you – I will let the Apple-bashing slide :-)
