Wait, Apple made an offer to acquire them? I was not aware of that. Anyway, I'm also surprised by the series of very bad moves of all sorts by the Dropbox crew. They're focusing on various areas these days which to my understanding just spells dead end, like being a place for photo storage (competing with Flickr), etc. They lost any good will they had built by having Rice on board, and then sticking with that decision even after seeing the bad reception. It's surprising because I thought Drew Houston et al. were very strategically smart folks who couldn't make these types of mistakes.
