  1. Comment - October Debut for Microsoft 'iPod Killer'

    (Jul 23, 2006 - 7:55 PM)

    Very true about having multiple operating systems. It would increase the learning curve for all these people who haven't caught on to using a computer.

    On the flip side, Mac Os X is a much more stable operating system than Windows. They are both suited to dominate the market, however, Microsoft has the advantage of familiarity with most people which is making it difficult for Apple to gain a larger share. Though Gates has said that he knows he's made mistakes with Windows and he hopes to fix those mistakes, I, for one, am doubtful of whether this will ever really happen. The way Windows is developed just lends itself to a poor outcome.

    This has translated over to some of their other products as well, but not all. The success of this new Audio segment of Microsoft will greatly depend on whether Microsoft is repeating history with a buggy product or introducing a new side of Microsoft with well done products.

    We'll just have to wait and see!

    Yes...lets go buy an MP3 player that costs more than the iPod that only offers up to 1/3 the storage space of an iPod! Wait, what's this, I need yet another program on my computer to transfer files to it?! Oh, and I have to be running Mac OS or Linux!?!?

    No thanks. Something about buying a product that is fairly advanced from an unknown company with little history and no public financial reports just doesn't make me feel right...

    What's sad is that you (EvilJawa) are being so overly biased and hateful that you're discrediting Apple and Sony for what they've really done. The man behind Microsoft isn't nearly as stuck up about his company as you are. In fact, he'll tell you all about how Apple has done a great job and he'll credit them with all sorts of great stuff.
