This, however is:
Regardless, I don't see how putting the blame on a 3rd party because apple
didn't make it has any point. Apple is responsible for the business partners
they chose. Same with blaming Motorola for not improving the G4 fast enough.
Sure they were dragging their heels, but Apple entered into a business
agreement with them, so they're responsible for the outcome.

This sort of blanket statement flawed logic is really a waste of electrons.
How is Apple responsible for what any 3rd party choses to do? Any rational
response must depend on the timescale of course! Time for rational analysis
as what to do next. Obviously Apple has finally decided to give up on
Motorola and go with IBM. Should they have dropped Motorola earlier?
Retrospective hindsight is easy, but one could argue decisions made in haste
are usually not optimal.


Of course PC makers such as Dell and Gateway always make optimal decisions!
