Holly,

I know you are no fan of Bill, but Bill even owns part of Apple now. Were you aware of that? I know that many computer experts think his products are inferior, but the marketplace decides that, not engineers.

It is true that often the best products fail or maintain a small marketshare because of lack of marketing savvy or undercapitalized marketing. Bill is a superb marketer.

Beta was superior, but VHS won out. Many examples abound in the annuls of corporate history. As far as bundling is concerned, the US automakers have done it for decades and the justice department has never gone after them for that.
