(like caycep said,) from everything I've read, the venom spat back and forth between Microsoft and Apple sounds a lot fiercer than this. This is probably the fiercest rivalry in recent history, and I may be remembering history with more exaggerated brushstrokes, but I don't think this is the fiercest. I will grant that the "battle lines" seem to be drawn a lot less clearly now than they were back then. Again, that might just be the effect of remembering history after the "fog of war" has settled.
