The right thing would be to return the phone but hey we are all curious. I doubt any trade secrets were unveiled .... but the dude took it out of the office (was he supposed to beta test it) and left it at a bar.

Apple likes control (like most ... just as Microsoft and Internet Explorer) but if Apple gets too big the government just might break'em up or fine them for not allowing other apps to run on their device/OS.

Apple bought Emagic, Soundjam (this became itunes) and developed Aperture. (I like Lightroom better).

What could be Apples' motive? Control and profits (the new Ma Bell?) or simply to make a better more stable product

I'm just rambling......

How about everything that people are forced to run XP to do. Certainly they don't load XP on a mac because the prefer it

I have several XP machines, and they're great for streaming samples. Vista under Boot Camp is really annoying for little reasons to do with BIOS being emulated (such as not all your drives showing up), but it works okay.

I know, I'd run Windows 7 if I had it. MS sent me Vista to test audio programs on, and it works pretty well.

Here you go....

Lucky for you Nick. If there were you'd be serving a life sentence!

Joe, how about some examples? I haven't found anything in my admittedly sheltered life that I can't do on a Mac. I'd seriously like to know.

Almost any control program for pro audio only runs on PC's - the reason I always see people with either the second machine or Xp on macs. Seriously, why would anyone that hates Windows so much be running it if they didn't HAVE to?!

I'm just asking, Joe.

Joe, God created a pile of 7-year-old Windows machines (worth $50 on the used market) for just that purpose: running XP software. I run Giga, Halion, and older EastWest libraries on them, and they're great.

Oh my goodness. Look what I just found on a Mac Swaggart Zombie site:

Apple sells a million iPads in under a month. When in history has another company been so good at duping so many idiots who aren't as smart as Mark Kluth?
