In that paradigm, the Mac never gets built because the engineers at Apple, Wosniak included, do not direct their abilities in that particular direction. Whereas in fact, the Mac was built - because Steve Jobs pushed the engineers to make it a reality. Remember, the Mac wasnt just the first thing that came out when you poured the PARC GUI concept into Wozniaks head - the first iteration was the Lisa, which was a failure. It was Jobs who kept the engineers working on the software and hardware which finally became the Mac.In your paradigm, we would all have bought a Lisa because Steve Jobs was such a wonderful used-car salesman. But we didnt. We bought the Mac, tho - because the drive of Steve Jobs finally got it right (For its time, of course - today nobody would touch a new computer which had as limited a capability as the original Mac did).
You bought the overpriced Mac. I’ve never bought an Apple Product and never will. But worship what and who you will. Freedom of religion is a principle of America. Or it used to be.
