OUR generation acts different on camera. Imagine people born and raised in a world where they are always on TV. Their mentality, their public demeanor, will probably be very different from ours. Where as 30 years ago people would be embarassed to be put in front of a TV camera, we now have children making videos from home and posting them on YouTube, trying desperately to get as many hits as possible.

The parent shouldn't have been modded a troll. The comments on Apple's own past behavior, the hype surrounding some of Apple's product lines, and attempts to dominate markets using proprietary formats like QuickTime are all fair game.

Add to that several attempts to control every aspect of computing on the Apple platform to include software development.

I'm reading an interesting article that discusses how Windows 1.0 was and Windows 286 were forced into being awkward and clumsy due to legal challenges by Apple. Sadly, the article lacks any reference to Gates taking Apple code with he started working on Windows.
