No. Apple focus on lame gimmicks and the computers are fancy designed but not the greatest os to use imo. Windows is way cool and easy to learn, i personally think if windows focused on fixing bugs and other issues they'd remove apple from the market as they don't seem to have many stores open where i live now. hehe =) Apple nanos + ipods are bugville. ~Joey Kudos!

Do you really think Microsoft is can remove/ fix all their bugs? Do you think Windows is more reliable? Do you ever compair the performance of Apple and Microsoft?

You are not getting every thing because most the products are developed keeping windows in mind because approx 95% user use Windows OS. But I try Mac Computer and I see a high level of performance, High level of Computing Power, High level of graphics and most important thing is its relaibility in comparision to windows. I am not against Windows. I am using Windows OS because all my work is based on that. The best part of Windows is User friendly Screen, On demand help, on demand Patches and Differnt type of look everyday.

Personally i think they can fix most of the bugs of course but they shouldn't rush a release. (which is what they're currently doing) Windows is more reliable imo. Linux is a powerful os but not as good as windows and apple pcs are annoying (well to me) All my computers run windows. I'm not fan of mac pc's, apple don't really offer what i want. It's just appeals to people who think it looks good imo. Whats your thoughts?

Of course Apple can beat microsoft, but they won't. Imagine, they can produce their own hardware, processor, software, and OS. It's cheaper in production cost. But Apple sets it target to the high level end-user. This high level here doesn't mean economically but also high-level programmer, designer, etc.

Yes.. I think Apple can beat miscrosoft, but they have to focus on the low-level users also and more focus on the services.

Nothing is impossible. I am sure that there is always a chance for Apple to overtake Mircosoft in the near future. You see, Apple introduce successful products such as i-Pod, i-Phone, etc, which is really some attractive products for customers to buy. On the other hand, what do Microsoft offer? Just some software! That's not enough for a computer company.

maybe but for now Apple has this image of coffee drinking, artsy, graphic and fashionista. Apple seems to only attract that type of crowd.
