I like Macs don't get me wrong. Just because I'm a tech doesn't make me a bad person. Haha. Anyway, it is my personal belief that Apple would benefit from releasing their OS to the IBm compatible market. i can't really argue because I don't know a whole lot about business. i am only expressing what makes sense to me, it may not make sense to you.

What I don't understand is why it seems that no one on this list would like to see that happen? I understand everyone's reasoning behind why it shouldn't happen. i look at it this way. My dad who loves music would benefit because he wouldn't have to spend a load on an Apple machine because he could use a PC (much cheaper) with a good OS that isn't giving him the fear of loosing all his data at ay minute because of a virus or instability. (The loss of all data more likely resulting in a HD failure, but its just an example) Or some kid wants to edit movies or something but can't afford a nice new $2k G5.

So I am looking at the "consumer's" benefit not Apple's. Because without the consumer they aren't much of a company. Maybe I'm being to simple. Maybe I should shut-up so we can end the thread? Fun conversation though.
