Aug 20, 2008 - Apple stole GUI, and many other aspects of the PC, you ppl r like sheep, hit you over the head with a stick, and you all go in the same direction, just like sheep should.

Aug 20, 2008 - we all know that the microsoft sucks...wozniak and jobs are computer geniuses, the built a 1. computer that have a keyboard and monitor...just read book IWOZ...apple is 100x better than microsoft...for example: mac os 9.22 have built in a dvd player...xp have windows media player 9 and he cant play dvd..u must install a plugin

Aug 20, 2008 - I'd rather see Steve Wozniak run Apple rather than Steve Jobs.I have three Apple 2 systems and they still work.
DeadFredVideo Says:
Aug 20, 2008 - I think they would be better together, the old team :)
otopico Says:
Aug 20, 2008 - how did apple steal anything? people seem to miss the fact that apple and microsoft were working together for a long time on a workable gui interface for micro-computers. neither came up with the idea, but like many things, the innovation comes from refinement, not the invention.MS lost their way when Ballmer was made the boss. Apple survived because Gates has no problem throwing money at good ideas. the mac v pc garbage makes for great bar arguments, but in the real world, it doesnt matter.
ShadowFOX4u Says:
Aug 20, 2008 - otopico , you still dont get it.without steve jobs and steve wozniak going to a division of xerox and seeing everything they were doing, apple computers would have been more like the atari 2600.that's the definition of "stealing".but you can't get most bigoted and close-minded apple lovers to see the truth for what it is.in the marketing war, microsoft beat the livin crap outta apple. history speaks for itself. shit in your drawers if you can't handle that.

Aug 20, 2008 - First of all Xerox Gui didn`t work well, as much as OOP object orientation program which is bult in first apple gui.
ShadowFOX4u Says:
Aug 20, 2008 - if steve jobs and woz never get to visit the division of xerox, is the history apple still the same, probably not.would they have figured things out on their own eventually ? woz might have, not steve jobs.
ShadowFOX4u Says:
Aug 20, 2008 - woz might be a genius, steve jobs just terrorized people.
KoolAidManOG Says:
Aug 20, 2008 - ShadowFOX4u - 1) Xerox was paid in stock for the visit. 2) Xerox's GUI was a basic concept but Apple had to do a LOT of work to make it usable. A few of the same basic GUI paradigms used in the first Macs are still present in OS X today. 3) IMPORTANT: Xerox was never interested in bringing their GUI to market. It only existed in a research lab. Xerox didn't have the foresight to actually put that idea into a mass market device.
ShadowFOX4u Says:
Aug 20, 2008 - apple isnt better than microsoft and (2) most second graders have better marketing sense than apple. we don't decide who's better, the market does, and they chose microsoft overwhelmingly a long time ago. get over it.

Aug 20, 2008 - As far as I know, DVD is patented by a third group?
spionfreak Says:
Aug 20, 2008 - The reason people chose microsoft is because they could not choose apple since apple would not release their OS to other hardware companies had they had the choice who knows. And microsoft is digging their own grave with vista which until windows 7 comes out apple has the chance to make up for lost time and enter further into the enterprise market. and no apple may not better than M$ but i personally think that apple tends to spend more time debugging and fixing their OS than M$.
ShadowFOX4u Says:
Aug 20, 2008 - apple made the same mistake sony beta made, a huge marketing blunder.
beanwithbacon Says:
Aug 20, 2008 - Only way Apple will ever have a chance is to release there OS to other manufacturers or to the general public to simply purchase and install on any machine. Apple NEEDS to go software only if they want a chance. There hardware is simply just terribly overpriced.

ShadowFOX4u Says:
Aug 20, 2008 - typical apple sissy. after 25 years of living in caves, wearing bear skins and crawling around on all fours to find insects to munch on, apple finally comes out into the light to have some measured success. too funny.
temporaryaccount99 Says:
Aug 20, 2008 - I just bought a vista, without sounding rude, let me just just say that I am truly surprised they released it with some of the problems it has. I wonder if they just threw it out into the market because they want to stop any hopes that xp will be continued. just my opinion.
