Will Mac Ever Overtake Windows?

Mac vs Windows. For most of the computer geeks/nerds of my age (14 years old), we see them as 2 separate OS in a war probably going to rage until they declare war on humans…

…Anyway, older tech junkies will know that Microsoft was once part of apple – using Steve Job’s incompetence to steal the “Mac look” before separating from them with a Mac clone. The ‘Mac look’ was simple – a bitmap on a screen with a clicker on it, and a gadget called mouse to control the clicker.

Meet Windows. On another note, Jobs was fired not long after that and the only way he got back into Apple was via Pixar (yes, he co-founded Pixar).

Now, more then 20 years later, Windows is credited as the first one which added a bitmap as a control interface, and Mac is using humor to rip Windows apart, a finger at a time. Apple now has a cult following (sorry, fanboys), and everything they produce is promised to be super, and sell well. Whatever happened to the failed Apple TV? Oh, it did not get dragged down…

Let’s face it. Apple has a coat of invincibility. Whatever they screw up, they are instanly redeemed. For Windows? One word: Vista. Vista screwed Microsoft up real bad. Now it seems that Mac is better then a PC, not just a good piece of software”.

But really? Let me make this clear: MAC IS NEVER GOING TO TAKE OVER COMPUTERING, UNLESS THEY DO ONE THING.

The one thing?  Mr Jobs need to open their hardware. Macs are only made by Apple. Not by dell, IBM or any other 3rd party company. I recently wrote a post on my blog relating macs to Communism. Why? Because the Mac’s hardware is made by apple. You cannot have a custom Mac. Sure, it stops the user base from fragmenting, but it means Macs can’t be improved on by others.

If Macs take over, Dell, IBM, or any other companies making PCs will die. It’s a competitive market- and each try to 1-up the other.
