Yet you chose to insist that Apple will dominate? Your logic leaves my assertions just as valid as yours. And yes, if Apple refuses to open its closed system I will stand by my prediction.
Every time Apple has succeeded it has been by opening up a closed system. The iPod was a closed system and nearly a failure until iTunes for Windows. The Mac has found new life since switching to a Unix-based open-source OS and using Intel CPUs. Apple does usually recognize, albeit late in the game, that they have shot themselves in the foot with their closed systems. At some juncture Steve Jobs will miss the boat on opening such a system...he can’t help himself.
It will be just as valid 10 years from now as it was 20 years ago. A straw man argument that leads nowhere.
Apple makes money, not commodity junk, there is plenty of that available for you to purchase, so enjoy.
