The nice thing about Apple is it's going up and up... still getting the ole Windows defectors... who've had enough... doncha know

/sarc..yeah..Apple has been going “up and up” for over 30 years, yet companies that were founded LONG AFTER Apple, like Dell, Acer and Lenovo came from nowhere, and swiftly overtook Apple in worldwide sales and market share.
So much for your “up and up”. Apple went so "up and up" they ended "down and down" under Lenovo and Acrer. Chortle!
Where has all that “up and up” gotten Apple to in terms of worldwide market share? Firmly beneath the heels of Toshiba, which only accounts for just over 5% share.

You were saying ...

Apple has been going “up and up” for over 30 years, yet companies that were founded LONG AFTER Apple, like Dell, Acer and Lenovo came from nowhere, and swiftly overtook Apple in worldwide sales and market share.

Well, you know, the nice thing about that is that the Apple Macintosh had been a machine that has had steady growth and continued evolution and improvement of the platform since over 25 years ago. That's amazing in the computer world -- first to have a company be a success for that long -- and -- have a product line continue to be going strong for that long.

It's totally amazing. And the nice thing about it, is that many Apple Macintosh users have been able to ride along for all that time, and it's still looking good with -- now -- a whole lot of Windows users "jumping ship" over to the Apple Macintosh.

And why not?!

Heck! The Apple Macintosh can run 100% of the software out there on the market between the Macintosh and the Windows software -- while the Windows people can only run their own.

If the geeks ever wanted a machine that can do it all... that's the Apple Macintosh -- they can run multiple operating systems at once -- at one time -- and even have a Windows program running in the operating space of Mac OS X ...

It's like not even knowing that you've got a couple of operating systems going on at the same time... LOL ...

It's no wonder that the Apple Retail Stores are selling over 50% of their sales to Windows users who are jumping ship from the crapware that comes from the Windows world.
