Of course, Edwin is wrong. Edwin is always, perenially wrong about everything. Jobs end the clones because they were eating into Apple's sales, and not growing the platform. He did in a...

Why Microsoft Should Fear Intel Macs" 547
I always do. Apple makes Macs, you make home-made Windows boxes. How can you be in the "pc" business and know so little about it? What part of 'The Mac "clones...

You drew the conclusion that Pixar was an "all PC shop", right (yes or no). Your evidence that it was an all PC shop was only that Macs weren't mentioned in the credits...
Why Microsoft Should Fear Intel Macs" 552
Alan Baker Why would I have to answer that? That's been hashed out enough. Didn't you understand when I told you I'm not going to argue an argument that...
Why Microsoft Should Fear Intel Macs" 553
What you said about Pixar was a *conclusion* and that conclusion was wrong. Nope. Then how an I a "bald-faced" liar for saying the opposite was...

On Tue, 2006-08-01 at 17:14 -0700, Snit Why should I need to support this claim to you, who spent years running a Mac versus PC site, with the only difference between those being the processor...
Why Microsoft Should Fear Intel Macs
What did they want to 'stick' the cloners with? You mean growing the market? That was the ENTIRE point of offering it in the first place -- it was what the...
Why Microsoft Should Fear Intel Macs" 563
Mitch There was nothing wrong with that. Their licenses didn't stipulate what type of machines they could build. If that were true, Apple could have cancled their licenses for...

Why Microsoft Should Fear Intel Macs" 568
Dave Fritzinger I didn't say it was the sole reason. I don't have any "mistatement" to "wiggle out of." I stand by what I wrote. You failed to give a reason why...
