[QUOTE="ArrowHead%20NLI:546908"]Funny, but what a shitty skewed perspective. Microsoft has been pretty blatant and forward about the direction they wanted to take Windows in for a damned long time, pre-dating apple oSX by a long shot. Is it really that surprising that two guys that founded a business together, created a unique product together, and share very similar goals and business ethics would end up creating vastly similar upgrades to their software? Microsoft has been clear since before even the release of XP: future versions of Windows would expand as much as possible on the explorer shell, and change the way files and folders are coded, cataloged, and searched. Now ten years later, they get shit for delivering exactly what they promised, because his ex-partner's company came out with something nearly identical AFTER microsoft had announced their focus? Same shit pissed me off when microsoft started getting sued by asshole software makers because they integrated microsoft software into windows, cornering the market on every need from media player to internet browser. Meanwhile, while microsoft wastes time and money releasing new versions of products and paying settlements, Apple has practically FOUNDED themselves on the principle of exclusively bundled software - far beyond the extent that microsoft ever did. I loved apple. I used apples exclusively until around 1998. However, they just no longer have the better shit, at least not by the margin they used to. I like being able to find whatever software I want for my OS. I like being secure in the knowledge that something working on my PC will also work on most of my friends' PC's. I'll be lured away from windows by a unix or linux platform LONG before you'll ever see me switch back to a crapintosh.[/QUOTE]
