In line with the Apple love-fest on this thread... I have not owned a television for a year, and will not even consider one until I see what Apple has to offer. They're not only well-manufactured devices, but Apple "gets" on a deep level what pe…

It doesn't really matter what Microsoft thinks. Apple is clearly the company in control of how the public sees computing. It's a matter of competing visions, and Microsoft's vision is a defense of the way things currently are. Apple 's, on the other…

Apple must be terrified. What ever will they do??
