- MBCook 10y agoI'd say that's beneath Apple. They usually don't attack competitors directly (used to WAY back, but now now). At least I really hope it is. Twisting the knife at something like this would be a pretty horrible thing to do.
- madeofpalk 10y agoLeaders (or at least those who perceive themselves to be) rarely have a need to attack those who are underneath them.
- MBCook 10y agoTrue, that's why it would feel so cheap. Back when Apple had 4% of the PC market (before iPod) it made sense.
- MatekCopatek 10y agoDidn't they do the whole Mac vs. PC campaign a few years ago? Sure, they didn't point out a specific brand, but on more than one occasion it seemed very obvious what product/company they had in mind.
- 7Z7 10y agoThat was when they were the plucky underdog, like with IBM before that. They certainly aren't (and wouldn't accept opinions to the contrary) an underdog to Samsung.
- dottrap 10y agoAlso, "PC" was never a specific company. You could infer things like Microsoft or Dell or HP or whatever, but they avoided specifically naming a company.
