      Mac OS is Unix!!! Unix is time-tested by the researchers and users (government, universities and industry) since 1969 (www.levenez.com/unix/). It has been hacked and improved countless times. Unix was and is still the preferred OS for secure, networked, multi-user computing!!! Mac OS is BSD Unix that has user-friendly GUI. Sep 14 01:25 PM

      This consortium approach smells more like the formation of an illegal Cartel for entertainment. The FTC should take notice of this collusion!!! Sep 13 06:10 PM
    • Time to Stand Up for Steve Jobs [view article]
      The problem is, for some reason, people compare Apple with Microsoft or Dell or xyz. The correct comparison should be with Sun, IBM and HP. These are the companies that make the "Whole Enchilada"!!! Not Microsoft or Dell. Jul 23 12:12 PM

      Wall Street is "Loss" Vegas of the East!!! Only gamblers run a company focusing on Wall Street's expectations. It is amply proved by the gyrations to Apple stock value. Jul 23 11:50 AM

    • Why Steve Jobs Should Resign [view article]
      One can get away with corruption, murder and mayhem if one can put appropriate spin on it. Microsoft, after it was found guilty of monopolistic actions should have been split up. No! Instead, its "holey" operating system was allowed to maintain a strangle hold on innovation, costing billions of dollars in damages caused by viruses and the the non-productive labor that goes into protecting the computing systems based on this "holey" operating system.

      Unix, a proven and robust computer operating system, which had many people-years of intellectual input and tax-payer investment was pushed into obscurity until Steve Jobs came back to Apple and resurrected it as Mac OS X for ordinary people.

      "The law is blind" maxim implies that the laws are absolute and that they are applied without any interpretation. Unfortunately, this is not the case. No law is absolute! Laws are made and applied by humans based on the demands made by those with self-interests. The populous generally behaves like a mob and is blood thirsty. It takes one or two with self-interest to make this mob go in the direction they want.

      Most of these who are screaming for Steve Jobs to resign are likely to benefit when he resigns and Apple stock goes down. The only ones I can see benefitting from this are Apple's Competitors or those have a financial stake in Apple's Competitors. My take on this whole Apple & Steve Jobs "Witch Hunt" is, that it is initiated and kept fueled by those who either hate Apple for its success after Steve Jobs' return or those that are going to benefit from its downfall.

      Citing morals and ethics as reasons behind the calls for Steve Jobs' resignation is nothing but a cloak to disguise financial interests of those making this ruckus.

      Since you disclosed that you don't have position in Apple, can you say the same thing about your positions in its competitors?

      If an internal investigation was made and the financial statements were corrected, the case should be closed and people should shut up. The public outcry should be proportional to the damage caused by the act. A write off $90 million is a drop in the ocean when compared to the massive financial and horrendous social damage that was caused and continue to be caused by our leaders.

      You should perhaps perform and "Institutional Risk Analysis" on the damage that was caused and is still being caused to the "American Institution" by our "so called" leaders.       Jan 08 09:40 PM
