You should have pointed out that the USB in his precious iMAC was an invention of none other than INTEL I'm generally a bit wary when Intel claims to have invented something. They're already in a huge pissing contest over the Pentium -- and the bi-polar technology which serves as the core of the Merced isn't even owned by Intel (nor have they sought permission to use it). On the other hand, IEEE 1394 or "Firewire" was invented 7 years ago by Apple. QuickTime's so good that Microsoft's tried to steal it on at least three occasions. MPEG-4 which'll be showing up in everything from multimedia compression, DVD, wireless, broadcast, digital audio, etc. is entirely Apple. Fun fact: The "advanced" compression code that enabled Intel's video-conferencing system was originally developed by a one-man game development enterprise in Princeton New Jersey. True.
