You cannot innovate in how things are integrated however. You got to stick to the industry standards. Nor can you say innovate by switching the CPU architecture in your computer.
A vertical integrated system like a Mac allows for much more innovation.
In fact this is true for any vertical integrated system. If you look at Amiga, NeXT, SGI, SPARC and many others, they where always far ahead of the PC in terms of technology.
- Guthur 6y agoSure, you can create a closed vertically integrated system which will allow you the freedom to do what you want, but you've not created a platform for others to integrate with when you do. The point is those industry standards make the PC a more open platform, where multiple vendors can contribute innovation on the same common basis.
