Even if Apple tried, it could not completely wipe windows because more than 50% of windows is used by IT and Business people. Apple is targeting consumers!

@loveinthespace Haha, i moved from XP to Windows 7 when it came out, and i tried going back to XP the other day, and its definatly not the same as i remember =P seems to work a lot different, and i find myself trying to use snap even though i know it doesnt exist. LOL.

@harley22x, Yes, you're right. I meant in 2014-2015.
-
this guy (Not Leo) is trying to compare this to Ipad, Its a full OS compare it to Mac os or Linux. not IOS, web os or Palm
-
@musicman1163 Well not really, Apple does not do hardware, apart from A4 chips.. Apple uses the same hardware a PC does..
-
Apple does hardware and software, Microsoft only does software, so there is need to compare.
-
@loveinthespace Yeah, im pretty sure 2014 they are stopping with the XP support. im not too sure though. lol.

@loveinthespace XP is getting long in the tooth!! But, if Windows 8 is coming next year, I'll wait! I also want to buy a tablet but I want one running Windows 8!

@Edel99, You will have to upgrade when they stop supporting XP maybe in 2015

@tron23058 Help Paul do what? Be as subjective & biased as 90 percent of the rest of TWiT? No, thanks. I think the fact that he'll welcome Apple developers on his show proves that Paul doesn't need any help.

@Scobleizer LOL! Yeah, Apple and it's OS are really threatening Windows with it's 7% market share. Windows controls 90% of the desktops on the planet. So your comparison is stupid beyond belief.

I don't want to touch my monitors (3x24") cause it would be hard to drag something from one to the other but for single monitors or the "average/basic/grandma/parents" user, it would be great.
