Steve Jobs was and is quite an amazing fellow. One of the Titans of technology. Apple, Pixar, ....you just can't deny him. The compatibility issue has haunted Apple for 25 plus years and yet still, there they are. They must be doing something right just ask those is the comp graphics/video field.
Ok let's see there's: GUI's, object-oriented programming. Adobe, the mouse (yes the mouse whether or not it has a right clicker or not, it wouldn't have anything had Apple not FIRST introduced it into the market) ...people that make fun of apple and macs are uneducated bafoons.
There is no "better" you narrowminded nimrod. Things are what they are. Functionallity determines utility. The Mac has it's niche. You judge it outside of it's realm of utility and think you are being clever. You can tell me that forks suck to eat soup with and we can sit here and chuckle with our spoons in our hands.
