> Mac forums are stull full of people hating on Microsoft Which is odd because Bill Gates appeared at the Mac launch and Microsoft was the biggest and keenest early supplier of Mac software. Microsoft even offered to help promote the adoption of Mac OS by other companies to make it an industry standard. Thirty years later, it's still supplying Office and more than a dozen iOS apps. The extra irony is that, through its draconian control of patented technologies and huge revenue streams from the iPhone, Apple may now be more of an Evil Empire than Microsoft was ;-)
