Perhaps someone needs to drop a dime and give the FTC Antitrust Div. a call.
Sad.
I love Apple. I have three Iphone4’s. They are great.
But apple has a long history of closing off its architecture.
My first PC was a Mac IIci.
As users became more adept , Apple’s closed architecture made PC hobbyists move to what was called an IBM PC.
And when you or others make that call, exactly how do you explain that this practice violates "antitrust" laws?
How specifically should Apple's practice of selecting certain screws be considered a "monopolistic" activity?
Why? If you don’t like this policy, don’t buy an iPhone. Nobody’s forcing you.
