Steve is always so...enthusiastic. Every time I watch him speak, I keep thinking about the time he just kept screaming on stage during a press conference.
Keep in mind that not too many other (still haven't found one) notebooks have a processor this fast! Nor do they feature the NVIDIA graphics cards.... not to mention LED displays (which are quite new), and multi touch trackpad. All these features are pretty much cutting edge for laptops and would tend to place it at the high end of the price range.
They made different quality of products for different audiences and tastes. Essentially they split the whole pie, half for each, so to me the whole "war" was just food for press and publicity for them both. More than enemies, they've been partners all along IMHO
I've often wondered how MS approaches development. It seems that they are extremely focused on getting as many features stuck into their apps and OS that they loose track of the big picture. Getting the OS to look less pimped, would be nice and getting a bit of common sense in their UI would help a lot. When I use any OS from MS I so often burst out WTF - wondering why the h... did they make it so counter-intuitive.... Just my two cents
The only thing Apple did to change the industry was to make good looking products. The big problem is that I can make a really fast computer with Windows because they don't care about what hardware I use. I simply can't do that with any Apple product.
My only comment is this. They are two different companies, who came forward with two separate visions of how it should or could be done. And for me it is more interesting to see how they BOTH prospered as companies over the long term. As Rivals. As Allies. As passionate individuals. Thumbs up to both of them for helping shape the industry to what is today.
What would be your serious guess for how often Windows XP, or Vista crash? I may have had *ONE* uncontrolled restart last year. Certainly not more than two.
Keep in mind, this is a little while after Steve left Apple for the first time when he was working at NextStep. Apple's hardware revolutionsed the market. The best products for personal computing were all Apple. You can't say he's lying when he says that apple products were inovations. Now though, apples inovations are in software, not hardware, so you have to give them credit for things like OS X and iOS, dont just hate them for their nearly monochrome color scheme for laptops.
I believe this is already after Jobs had returned, but just after. NeXTSTEP was the OS of the Next computer, not the company. BTW Apple had many hardware innovations, too many to detail here.
iPhone was just a good looking product? Maybe you can look back at what cell phones were like before and after 2007. Entire cell phone industry did a follow and copy because iPhone brought a paradigm change to the entire mobile industry. You can also check ultra portables. All PC manufacturer went the direction of the MacBook Air after the disaster known as netbook shrunk their margins.
@PlRATEBAY I know I can use the Home button but I prefer to have exit since it is smoother to use touch screen compared to pressing real buttons. Very very few ipod programs have an "exit".
I've been a designer now for umteen trillion years, self taught on a PC using Adobe and Corel products from an early age(mainly Illustrator, cuz vector beats raster any day for editability)and have worked in the printing and design industry for several years...and NEVER have I EVER used a Mac to work in the industry, and in the printing industry, WORK is actually DONE, and people have TANGIBLE results, instead of everything being a DIGITAL end-product. My name is Mark, and I'm a PC!
Microsoft has done a terrific job with the openness of their OS. It's easier to have a big mouth, when you don't care for the diversity of the underlaying layers of software. Apple doesn't give the rest of the hardware and PC makers the chance to compete fairly with their product. From this point of view, Microsoft, has developed a more "market friendly" where there has been lots of winners.
@Redknight345 Grabbing 1.69% of total computing devices sold in 3.5 years is pretty good. Almost doubled Linux and Java ME - both of which has been around for many more years. Where did Netmarketshare place Android, BB OS and Symbian?
@dziltener Actually, incase you didn't know, 3.4 GHz processors are easy overclocked past 4.0. Watercooling and front fans make this stable and fast. Also 10MB L3 cache is so 'cache'.
@venuecam Xerox did not give anything to Apple except 2 technology demos. In exchange, they got shares of Apple stocks that made quite a bit of money later. Mac OS was written from scratch based on those 2 demos.
I never said everyone needed the horsepower of the MacBook Pro - the discussion was about specs relating to a top end Dell notebook if you remember. And the whole MacBook line (except 1) has the multi-touch trackpad not just the Pro. Battery life - typically the Mac notebook line tends to have longer battery life. I think I saw that in one of the PC website's comparison tests.
I have to agree that it is pretty much a moot point now that all of the litigation is over and the people who are in charge (the courts) have made their decision. Still, it is kind of fun sometimes to discuss the issue of who stole what simply for bragging rights as to which company is more innovative (Apple) and who stole what (both of them did). With that said, I agree with your assessment that today's products are really what matter now, and as it looks right now, Apple has a better product.
@TheMarkNessMonster Oooookay, my sources suck. I was basing this off of a Computer World article that just posted a note saying the source of their info might be invalid. lol. Not sure if I can post links here, but the article is titled "Most Windows 7 PCs max out memory".
Low end PCs certainly can handle such tasks like Microsoft Works, emailing... etc. For people that only wish to do that - sure a low end PC is fine. But so is the Mac Mini. My mom picked one of those up a couple years ago and absolutely LOVES it. She's not running anti-virus software, never crashes, and she loves the OS X so much better than Windows. And it ALWAYS works. Unlike her last few PCs - bizarre machines, crashing, locking up, restarting on their own - weird!
@Dell0304 Does Ballmer rule in... Smart phone? Digital content distribution? Internet search? Advertisements? Bucking trends and creating a host of competitors to follow his lead? Increasing stock price for his company? How does Ballmer "rulez" exactly?
@yanava Fonts is an example of digitizing an analog form into usable digital form. It lead to typography & graphic design going digital. Professional documents demands it. This is repeated many times in computing. Artwork, music, video, books, and eventually the majority of information we've used were originally in analog form. Even money has become digital. His point was to create new utility for the computer. Apple is doing really well without enterprise. Check revenue, profit, market value.
@kahuna3901 OS X does run on ARM as iOS. You get that right? iOS uses same kernel, BSD sockets, Networking, APIs, dev language and compilers. iOS is a reduced set of OS X catered to portable devices where mouse/menu driven UI makes no sense. Essentially, Apple leveraged their OS and scaled it for other purposes. You know: "... different ui's for different form factors." Or are you thinking Windows 8 on a tablet/phone can be installed on a PC (or vice versa) and voila, the same OS?
Worlds best operating system: -Impenetrable security -Completely customizeable -Immediate internet speed -A chicken could understand it Let's see who makes it first. That company will truely be da best.

@TheMarkNessMonster Yea, you're probably right about the different printing industries. Mac is nonexistent in engineering vector design and those tools are very related to graphic design apps. There is a definite edge in unix based OS's when it comes to rendering. When I was studying GIS and raster analysis, we had a professor who would include the use of linux to load high resolution aerial photography for anlaysis. The rendering was just more efficient. At least it use to be.
Now, iPad Pro has a stylus which Jobs was adamantly against and the Surface Studio, not the Mac, is all the envy among creative types desiring an all-in-one.
LOL! YOU'RE AWESOME! You're the one saying Macs weren't too expensive these days. I'd say almost twice as costly as Windows machines could be considered "too expensive" for most people. I love the way you keep shifting gears every time I prove you're wrong.
@vjrei dont you mean that you haven't recognized it. last time i checked windows 7 is the biggest selling operating system in the world, mac osx is actually loosing market share because it doesn't sell anywhere near enough to keep its head above water. windows 8 is going to be compatible with ARM, it will have different ui's for different form factors. mac osx will have a new swipe feature and a way of looking at applications in full screen, which is more impressive?
PCs have never given me a problem. Have a decent pc and nothing can go wrong as long as you know what you are doing. Using a PC just takes a less simple kind of person, because it is more customizable in every way, in terms of hardware and software.
