    You complain when AI focuses on Microsoft, then turn around and take an article that has nothing to do with Microsoft and make it about them.



    Give credit where credit is due- that's all. Do you have a problem with that? Obviously you do!

    Let alone the blatant strengthening of classism in their shows! No wonder why Apple has a hand very much tied to Disney's paw.

    Apple promotes classism? How? Because their products are expensive?

    More like Disney's mouse tail- let's not forget it's the House of Mouse.

    What's Apple? And what did I state before?

    Anan- you don't want me to tell you what you "really" need. Besides I'd get removed for it.

    Six Flags is already in bankruptcy so what would be Microsoft's motivation? They can't destroy them like they have everything else they have innovated!

    I have had him blocked for months and only see his posts because people rise to the bait. Just add him to the 'ignore list' and be happy

    Your ridiculous analysis that Microsoft has nothing to do with electronic check out is pure denial. Good try though.



    You're getting really pathetic. This is just weak. I know I shouldn't encourage you by replying, but what would this forum be without your continuous trolling and FUD?



    Aren't you going to tell us the names of the contractors that built the stores and who made the tables, the glass in the windows, the employee uniforms, and the lighting fixtures? That would all be just as relevant to this discussion.



    Oh wait, I get your point. You are saying that Apple is a smart, well-run company that doesn't have a problem with using a product from a competing company if it solves a problem for them. That would be in contrast to Microsoft where they insist that their own products be used for everything throughout the company even when they don't work. I've heard that they don't even want their engineers to use Google search despite the lost productivity of trying to find anything useful with MS search.

    Excellent post. You articulated it way better that some of us did.



    But it is a wasted post......

    Yes, his point is to derail a thread, which he has successfully done.

    I despise that company and anything they stand for. They are blatant proof of what money can do in Washington. They have twisted a useful law and turned it into something ugly and counter productive. They are the primary reason that Public Domain is quickly becoming useless.



    IMO, It's a little sad that Apple is associating with Disney in any sort of collaboration.





    What's the matter, Mommy won't take you to Disneyland?

    First Apple , now Disney. Next thing you know TeckDud will use his "expertise" to slam Apple pie.
