Apple sort of does this all the time, but usually in the reverse of what you'd usually want to do...
  • They used to dis Microsoft products. Then they made deals with MS to introduce Internet Explorer for Macs.
  • They used to say two buttons were "too many" on a mouse to go along with the keyboard that has more than 100 keys. Then they introduced the multi-buttoned Mighty Mouse.
  • They used to say how Intel CPUs just suck! Then they transitioned their entire product line to Intel CPUs.
  • When the flat panel iMacs were introduced, Jobs denounced vertical disc drives as bad design. Then they introduced vertical disc drives in their next revision of the iMac.
