Comment battleground in the Mac vs. PC wars? (Score 1) 278
The more difficult Apple makes it for users to use "essential" Mac applications on PCs then the more likely people are going to look at Macs when making a choice in the current "transition period". People have become attached to itunes and the like, with them not working or having to wait for them to work on a PC it only attracts them to apple products more...
Not to mention, the air of doubt surrounding Vista is well known. I'm sure this is something that the strategists at Mac know well and are playing to their advantage. I wouldn't be surprised if they already have calculated how many users them can migrate using this tactic and feeding the hype of doubt as much as they can.
P.S. I'm really looking forward to Leopard!
