how much further can ANY software company go with OS's... I mean really OS's are ment to RUN programs...
Look at some people who are still running OS 6 on a mac classic or a SE/30... 7.5.6 on a performa.... 8.0 on a 9600....look at os 9.2.2 I have that on my AIO and it is fast and snappy and it runs the internet VERY well...and people are happily running and doing pretty much the basic tasks that people with 4K machines are doing...but doing it on 15-20 year old Macs...
If you figure that out you know how much money they saved not being into LAGS? ALOT.....
It's just like little johnny needs a new computer so mommy and daddy buy him one and 3K monster just to write emails and play a game....Duh!!!
Man I remember when I was younger 16 (in 1982) and if I asked my parents to buy me a computer,,,, they would of said, "Go Get A Job" and save up for it... Not today, parents give their kids everything and the kids "don't have to save up"...
it's funny I was thinking people upgrade color classics (I had one) and they run the internet or word, excel... and actually the startup's of the old OS's are so much faster because of the fact there is no BIG requirements on overhead, like there is now...
what's next in 10.7? just an update... just like 10.6 is... companies look for the bottom line, making money, apple is not different...
Then apple will release 10.7 that can run NATIVELY on PC's and the Mac machines will be so much cheaper B/C of that... That will cheapen Apple So much in my opinion... but they make more money on iPods, iPhones....
Bleeding edge... not me... I bought a few NEW macs and tell you the truth the used ones worked out better...#1: cheaper, #2: can run all the apps everyone else can, #3: Did I mention it was cheaper, more money in MY pocket. not corporate...
Don't get me wrong, I Love Apple, I work on Macs and PC's (for 17 years) and I hate PC's..... Like I say to People PC's S*ck!!!!!
And some people say it's a status thing... not to me... PC's just S*ck!!!!!!!!! all around.... Mac's rule!!!!
