<<Apple is one of the sad stories of proprietary nature just like AOL>>
It's true that Apple's use of a proprietary operating system obstructed its growth, but this was because it was incompatible with the de facto standard--MS DOS and IBM PC's. AOL's proprietary content and benefits, on the other hand, supplements the internet--it doesn't supplant it.

Regards,
Eric
