It is actually. It shows the effects of Apple maturing into more than just a niche player and the different pressures that can bring. It comes at the same time as an article about Apple starting to recommend virus software for OSX. IMHO The dynamics of being a small player are different to those of being a mainstream company and it will be interesting to see what effects this has.
- unalone 18y ago"Effects?" Do you mean the effects of Apple being parodied? I mean, if anything this clip will sell more Macs. But I still think that this post inspired more one-way other-way dispute than it did enlightened conversation.
- dejb 18y agoNo the fact that they are being parodied is an effect of their increased profile.
