[2012-05-19 19:02:13] thedrewstock12 - Then, Microsoft ...Then, Microsoft stole it from Apple
[2012-05-19 07:15:37] MsPwain - sb shouldn't take ...sb shouldn't take the word innovation into his mouth. Microsopft and innovation, maybe before 2001, but after that time - definitely not.
[2012-05-16 13:47:56] Angelus230 - Apple is beter dan ...Apple is beter dan Microsoft, maar ze overprijzen hun producten. En dat vind ik zo jammer.
[2012-05-15 20:49:09] Kentut100x - Because of this ...Because of this guy, Microsoft will always stuck in the computer level, but right now in the future, the tablet PC is more than the conventional PC. Furthermore smartphone already become the number 1 product that everyone must have. Apple and Android already become the market leader of both Tablet PC and Smartphone while Microsoft still struggle with their Window Phone sales. Sorry for bad English, not my mother language

[2012-05-13 20:16:18] Vincecouk - No Xerox gave the ...No Xerox gave the GUI to Jobs. The Xerox execs didn't have a clue. A lot of the Xerox team went and worked on Macintosh. Saying he stole it is kind of tired when in reality it was a partnership.
[2012-05-10 20:06:57] microsf121 - If Xerox legally ...If Xerox legally gave Apple the idea they wouldn't have been allowed to sue. Xerox invited Apple in an attempt to license their software to a variety of companies so that their GUI was the industry standard. Instead, Apple took the GUI, changed a couple of things, and put it on the market as their product. Then, when Apple tried to keep all other competitors from producing a GUI, claiming that Microsoft Windows copied the "look and feel" of Apple OS, Xerox decided that they wanted to sue.
[2012-05-10 20:02:28] Tweegyblink - Because this is ...Because this is America everyone can sue anyone as soon as they realize where the money is...Haven't you heard ?

[2012-05-05 03:11:17] thelifeaquatica - Apple invited Xerox ...Apple invited Xerox to buy up to a million shares in exchange to see their new products - do you think they would do that just look at them? No. Xerox knew very well that Apple had invited them so that they could look at what they were developing - Xerox didn't care because they didn't know how to market such a product.
[2012-05-03 10:42:09] microsf121 - They didn't pay ...They didn't pay for anything.
[2012-05-03 06:34:01] thelifeaquatica - Paid for, not ...Paid for, not stole!

[2012-05-01 21:04:59] gibofs27 - I just researched ...I just researched the number of Apple locations in the world. Do you live in any of these locations? Number of locations World: 363 stores US: 246 UK: 33 Ireland: 20 Canada: 22 Australia: 13 France: 10 Italy: 9 Germany: 8 Japan: 7 China: 5 Spain: 5 Switzerland: 3 Hong Kong: 1 Netherlands: 1
[2012-05-01 20:52:09] gibofs27 - It sounds like ...It sounds like you're very disappointed with Apple. I wish I could lend you my experience, but I can't. We here in California do have Apple customer support. I have a choice of Apple retail stores that can provide me with all the personal customer support I need. I also have friends that I occupy Apple products like myself so I'm able to compare notes. Can I ask what your specific criticism is about? What Apple device did you own?
[2012-05-01 17:39:09] murdoch201 - Minimum ...Minimum specifications Windows 7: 32-bit processor. Minimum Mac OS X Snow Leopard and higher: 64-bit. Starter price for Intel core I7 laptop with Windows: 500€. Starter price for Mac: 999€. Your arguments are worthless, we in Europe don't even have Apple customer support.
[2012-05-01 17:36:04] murdoch201 - Maybe Apple should ...Maybe Apple should send one of their slaves from their iPhone-toxic-jails at China or Japan. Let's see what they have to say about Holy-Apple =)
[2012-05-01 17:34:43] murdoch201 - Lucky you, in non- ...Lucky you, in non-US continent they don't even ship back to Apple. I had to go to a 3rd-party fix store, to fix my iPad. Ofcourse a very unproffesional result, it's broken again. For that price i buyed 3 windows tablets.
