Oh OK

"The comment about new things was in reply to another post.."

So you're using one post to comment on another post that you're not directly replying to. Classic dude..
And you're the one telling me to "get with it"..

"You mean that's all they needed to do all this years to regain their lost market share?"

Apparently that they could have done it but didn't indicates that it was never in their game plan.

"and poor Steve thinking the music thing was the way out.."

Stevie was never "looking for a way out". He just saw a potentially hugely profitable business and capitalized on it..you know, the way poor Uncle Billy can only dream of..

"send him your resume, he needs you."

I'm rich already. I don't need anyone..

"The world production of PC is about 190 millions units per year, but only about 4 million are macs. I don't see how this translates into Apple "selling Macs hand over fist".."

Well, apparently you're not the sharpest tool in the shed. Let's say I sell apples (the fruit, heehee) for a living. Let's say I sell 30 million apples a year and make millions of dollars in profit from it. Now even if worldwide sales of apples was, say, 1 billion, that does nothing to my success. Even though I'm not moving nearly as much product as the rest of the world collectively, I am still hugely successful. Now you have just completed Common Sense 101.

..but if that's the way you want to see it, you are free to entertain your own delusions."

Oh, I do baby, but it's usually when I'm tuggin on my hog..
