Oh, bad, wicked Apple is! From The Dark Side the software it buys, then The
Dark Side unable to use this software is!..
Seriously, as far as I remember, some other firm stole some Apple's code and
ideas and included both in their own software... I would say that buying the
software is a little better than stealing it, even though, as you suggest, it
deprives the other side from using them.

No, and I don't suppose you will, not at least in any foreseeable future. The
reason is obvious: now, why on earth did those Linux users switch to Linux
and what did they switch from?.. And consider the so-called "Halloween
Documents". Fascinating lecture, they are.
Cheers
