This goes hand-in-hand with the "it just works" quality of its
solutions. When you control the OS and base hardware, and use
industry-standard connectivity such as USB, FireWire and Bluetooth
for peripherals, you get an unrivaled consistency. I write this on my
MacBook, using a Logitech wireless USB keyboard and mouse, an
external USB drive and a Sony monitor. Oh, and all my USB cords share
a connection using a Microsoft-labeled USB hub!
