Say Paul-- Don't want to step on your parade, but I remember seeing recently that Apple's cap is larger than Microsoft... wish I knew where at this moment... but I think you will find that Apple, dispite being on crutches, is still larger than Microsoft.

I just wonder if they will make good on their plans to release the new Mac OS for the intel processor. But likely Jobs screw it up with his egotistical dictates.

After using latest versions of both systems (win and mac) side by side for years, I gotta say the mac is much easier to run and it's directory system is light years ahead of win95. But the new intel boxes are cheep, fast and great for the finance/stock software that isn't available on the mac.

Paul, re: "January, 1984 - Apple's Macintosh was introduced."

And they were pretty successful, opening the market for home PC's. Was their ultimate failure due to their ease of use and their selling of benefits, or were there other reasons they got toasted?
