[Up Yours Marxists]

“Apple became the wealthiest company in the WORLD by doing the same again and again!!!”

The same held true for IBM. Perhaps you should go back and re-learn your history.

[WVKayaker]

IBM went down because of the secondary market that developed from Microsoft providing software to dozens (hundreds) of other vendors. Also, they were behind the curve that Apple created with the advent of the desktop (personal) computer. IBM failed to innovate, which is where Apple excels.

i don't think I need a history lesson. I have the facts! Maybe you want to look at those.
