Yes, that's true Apple can't compete with them because they charge too much. IBM can't compete with them because they don't want to devote the resources necessary to support OS2.
SUN can't compete with them because unix is too complicated (inconvenient) and way too expensive for the average user. Linux is also too inconvenient for the average user (What there isn't a driver for my brand new video card, sound card, usb device, scanner, mouse, etc.? Well I guess I'll just have to get busy and write one--on second thought, why don't I just install windows!).
