Well, MS have been using Apple as someone to point to and say: "Look, we're
not a monopoly" for so many years...[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

That ought to turn off more than a few of their users who
will turn to Android for their next device. Bing it on![ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

For many years we have been misled to think that
Microsoft and
Apple were fiercely competitive with each
other. This is not
true.
Never was really true but Apple has always tried to pretend
otherwise. Back 1997 (Jobs was just back and had
become CEO) Microsoft
invested $150 million into
Apple that effective made them partners.
It also did not
help that Apple lost it's lawsuit
against Microsoft/HP in
1994. But Apple was already in very
bad shape by the early 1990's with
Microsoft still climbing.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

You might not have been born yet, but there once was a time when that was very
true. No misleading.
You have to go way back in the aeons of time. To a previous millennium long ago
forgotten and swept away in the sands of time. Back before the Web. Before
Gopher. Before dial-up internet. Even before there was AOL. So far back in
the dawn of history to a time when there was . . . CompuServe.
The passion was probably at least as great as that between Android and iOS
today.
