We're all benefiting from competition. That's the main thing I can say that's positive, that's ever come out of these OS/platform verses wars. I just see them all as tools I use to do whatever task I need. I've been waiting for a few years for the PC market to give me something that comes close to the MacMini. Now that these "NUK" type systems are here, Apple will up the ante.. and then the PC and... and.. we win. The PC mfgrs are still trying to find an answer for the iMac. The iPad. MacbookAir.... the results are. I pleased to say, is they have had to put out more expensive hardware as well. The Pc mfgrs know the truth. To put out really good devices will cost them, as well as us. 200$ dollar boxes give you 200$dollar results.
Thank God for gaming and gamers.... They, you, have pushed all these mfgrs more than any other industry, save maybe video/cgi, possibly the cloud crap too. and in four years time.. just wow. I know that's so slow to most of you. I'm glad you all want more, faster, cheeper, and want it all now. So do I.
