Sometime Today, j cobbled together some glyphs to say:
taking gui to the masses. .. making things simpler that what they
would have been
Apple did that
No they didn't. Apple took gui to the rich and l33t, not to the masses
where it really mattered.
make computing more affordable and relilable ... to make lif
e a lot more easir by improving the interfaces to computers an
making them more useful to common man without putting any efforts
in learning...
All of which would have been a lot cheaper and easier and reliable had
it not been for the aforementioned Billybaba and his cohorts'
methods.
I doubt it. The cost of computing was heading up when Microsoft entered
the market. It was their self serving deal with IBM that turned costs
downward by allowing clones to run the same software that IBM was
running at a fraction of the cost.
