Worse. They do hardware. I did my first Mac coding on 68000 Macs with NuBus. Those were REALLY open, and I just bet Steve Jobs still wishes they could go back to the good old days. And I wouldn't be surprised if Apple ever tries. If the original Mac had taken off and gotten the market share MS has today, There would be 2 3D video cards and they would both cost $2000.
