I like that, but I don't think it's true. Apple computers are (in my opinion) more reliable hardware; a lot of the appeal to Apple laptops are their simply designed hardware and their durability.
However, the opposite point is true: Apple's competitors are not in the software game.
- burke 15y agoI don't understand why everyone feels a need to argue over whether Apple is a Software company or a Hardware company. This is not a fruit-or-vegetable question. They do a lot of both, with roughly equal degrees of effort and success.
