One of the reasons that Microsoft is bigger is that they dont sell the hardware. You can put their OS on a $500 or $5000 box AMD or INTEL.

But they don't have the sexy selling style of Jobs.

To Quote Jobs Directly

"Good artists copy, Great artists steal."

(And he stole that quote from Pablo Picasso)

Does Jobs steal? Yes

Just don't drink the Apple-Juice and let him convince you

that he invented technology that's been around for a long time.

Does Microsoft steal? Yes

There just not as good at selling it to you as Jobs is.

Get a brain before telling shit everywhere.

That's typical of Linux new users, just arrogant and anti-all.

[Naunaud128]

Blablabla, there's no comparable thing with linux and this is not a simple tactile screen...

But I assume you didn't listen Steve Hodges.
