Back to your crappy example of a piece of software available for both =
the mac and Windows being a supposed demonstration of the mac being = ahead of
Windows. Maybe you want to give an example of something not = available for
Windows.
Now maybe you want to claim that apple is ahead of the many many =
vendors producing interoperable products like those I mentioned. If so, = go
ahead and give it a shot and support such a claim. Maybe if you = tried by
means other than simple assertion you could make a go of it. I = would suggest
not trying to spin it into either an OS or processor = architecture comparison
like you tried earlier as the standards which = those other products implement
are independent of both and software is = available for a mix of both.
I'm particularly interested in you supporting your claim "Apple is =
so far ahead of the Wintel world in this space that it isn't funny". I =
suspect you can't. This is likely typical mike miller noise.

I don't deny their existence, indeed, I acknowledge them. That's why =

said Apple was ahead.
