Message: Entry: Take My Computer, Please Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/take_my_computer_please#1643 Post contents: Mister Burch, Intel's chips are not faster than the PowerPC. Apple switched in order to make a play for Microsoft's customers. You can run Windows on a Mac now at full speed. You don't need to buy the "helper program", whatever that is (please explain). You can use Apple's Boot Camp program to boot into Windows. Also, Windows doesn't have 97 percent market share. Also, they are still called Apple, moron. If they are not called Apple, what is the name of the company? The Beatles did not invent apples, and they lost their ridiculous lawsuit. The iPod is not their biggest business right now, the Macintosh is, although it is getting close since the iPod is so successful, unlike the Zune. Microsoft didn't save Apple ten years ago. Apple had five billion dollars in cash and no debt. They were not going out of business, but their business was stagnant. Microsoft "invested" 150 million dollars in Apple because they were infringing on Apple's patents. 150 million dollars was pocket change to Apple, then and now. Microsoft was never going to kill Microsoft Office for the Mac. They made and make billions of dollars per year from Office on the Mac. That's a lot of money even for Microsoft. They need the money to replace the sixteen billion dollars they have lost on the X-Box. Get a clue, pal. Sent at: 2008 12 02
