Some people are so devoted to products from Apple Computer that they forget it's just a company, not your friend.

Finally, in an unexpected turn of events, the company conquers another field entirely, that of portable music players. - Gene Steinberg Quotes

Before I get to the point, let me say that I'm encouraged that Apple has managed its transition to Intel processors so rapidly. So far, the number of glitches with the new hardware appears to be small, fundamental compatibility is good, and the number of Universal applications continues to increase rapidly. Apple's own product guide lists over 1,000. - Gene Steinberg Quotes
