yeah, right...
So MS is bad because they don't LOOK for customers? Because the MS OS comes with the purchase?

Hmmm... Let's see now... I can buy a (PC)computer WITHOUT an OS... But I cannot buy a MAC without an OS!!

So it's APPLE that 'forces' users to use THEIR operating systems...

Just like they FORCE iPod owners to buy music from iTunes! They can't just buy music from anyplace... They are FORCED to use iTUNES if they want to get the music onto their iPods... Unlike all the other MP3/WMA/WAVE players out there that support multiple formats and many of which don't require ANY 'special' software like iTunes to transfer the music to their players or burn CDs...

Apple reminds me of the OLD PC days when the manufacturers had proprietary hardware and software... Those days are long gone at the PC manufacturers, but they are still going strong for the Apple's...

But hey, now there's a NEW iPod for you to buy!! In fact, they come out with a new one about every 6 months so you can keep spending your money over and over again!!

After all, that's the Apple way!!

But hey, as long as they LOOK "Kewl"...
