There is an age old adage in the world of business, "Be first, not better".
Personally I feel it's a stupid mistake on Micro part.
Microsoft isn't first at anything....
They stole the "windows" idea from Apple. They just announced a new xbox 360 "wiimote" knockoff that is purportedly better.
And now this.... can't say it's out of character for them

"Stole it" or made it better? I'd say there is a reason most people use Windows over Apple when both were available at the time!

Both?
Actually, I have another answer -- marketing. I am a PC man, definitely, but I know history, and it doesn't lie .
I'd own a Mac, if they wouldn't make all the hardware proprietary. People who say "they just work!" are kidding themselves. They're being restricted to an overpriced product that remains entirely proprietary, and therefore controlled by, Apple.
But Kudos to Apple for being "worth" stealing?

I'll give you points . Apple is getting better, but still far from where the PC has gone in terms of moddability. It's only been in the last 5 years MAX, that they've started to branch out where the PC's been for well over 15 years.
If they start offering products on the OS that I want to play, I might get a MAC, but none of the latest and greatest games have been written or tested on it, so there is no guarantee they'll work any better or not.
Hehe, that last comment of mine reminds me of Lindows, if anyone remembers that
