Soup:
Thanks for the additional information. Sounds like Rhapsody is not up to speed for Intel hardware, but certainly has potential for being a robust, fast and powerful OS.
Long-term, I think AAPL must manufacture both Power PC and Intel based machines loaded with Rhapsody, along with licensing the system to other vendors.
With the DOJ on MS's ass, AAPL may have the opportunity to license the system to other vendors with fair compensation.
INMHO, AAPL can only increase or hold hardware sales by having an OS that combines AAPL's reputation for ease of use, multi-platform compatability, and most important-----power and speed..Ala Rhapsody.
The above is even more obviuos for the NC market.
I think this is what AAPL intends to do, but things are on hold--and have been so for a long time due to corporate mismanagement. One would hope that Steve Jobs and cohorts are getting off the toilet and doing something meaningful.
Nothing new, but i thought i had to restate the obvious. |
