Apple, AT&T: Bosom buddies or odd couple?

sorry mlindi you need a history lesson the software apple made for windows: sorry mlindi you need a history lesson the software apple made for windows helped no one but apple.

apple could care less about any company but it self.

they made quick-time for windows because it has such a small foot print in the desktop market not to do so would have made it dependent on someone else's media player to reach windows users.

they made itunes for windows because if they had not the only people who would had bought a Ipod would have been mac users and there are just not enough of them.

and Microsoft bailed apple out back in the 90s when they were about to go under.

who did the $150 million that Microsoft invested into apple help i would say it helped apple because it got a niche market pc in to the office setting.

apple and Steve jobs has always been like a spoiled child you play there way or no way and then they will stab you in the back yes they are a bad partner.; Posted by: SO.CAL Guy Posted on: 09/14/07 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
