I grew up during the 8 bit microcomputer days, and was a Commodore guy, absolutely detested apple. Sadly Commodore’s Founder retired and his replacement mismanaged the company into the ground.
Apple survived, and my disdain for them did not abate until very recently.
I don’t consider myself a fan boy by any stretch, but MS has always sucked but at one point was driving technology, and Bahlmer destroyed it long ago. HP used to be a driver but Carly Fiorina and the board that mandated an affirmative action hire and then refused to admit their mistake destroyed that one as a serious player as well.
Jobs for his ills and there were many many ills, and many many failures, at least GOT technology and seems to have built a company that culturally knows what it needs to do. the fear will be now that he is gone, will Apple continue where it needs to to stay at the top, or will as often happens the bean counters take over and drive it into mediocrity?
I might short a lil bit of Apple if it goes up tomorrow...I don't know technology...but I know a bit about the market...*S*
Do your own DD!
