  I guess we have different ideas for "fighting tooth and nail". - Steve Jobs and Eric Schmidt would regularly discuss matters together. - They have pretty solid "do not poach" agreements. - None of them actively blocks their products from running on each other platforms - None of them launch products with the sole intent of destroying each others cash cow. E.g, Google could release flagship products at budget prices forever, just to take from Apple's market share. They certainly wouldn't lose money over it. Why don't they do it? Competition? Ok, but it never comes to the point where they actually want to inflict damage on one another. This is as friendly as it gets.
