Microsoft Windows 7
A look back on popular stories from today in a specific year.
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
First, you're a retard. The name of the company is Apple. They make a office suite compatible with Microsoft Office, iWorks. You have to be a kid otherwise you would know Apple existed years before Microsoft was even founded. In fact Jobs hired Gates to do some work for Apple.
@Andrew
bua hahahaha
I suggest you check out wikipedia and read the articles about Apple, Inc. and Microsoft. Microsoft was founded a year before Apple, and Bill Gates has never worked for Steve Jobs. They worked together as partners until they had differences in their visions and Bill left the group.
Drink a little more of the Apple Kool-Aid, though, please. I hear it's tasty and sends you to a magical, far-away world where logic and facts are unnecessary.
"Mac didnt even bother to develope theyr own proper productvity software and begged MS to let them run Office on their Mac's."
I think MS realised money was to be made on the Mac at that time hence why they realeased Office on the Macintosh first before Windows.
"never talk politics or religion" if u wont want to get pissed off at each other. "never talk mac vs pc" should be added to the list.
And also PS3 vs Xbox 360 :')
And iPod v Zune
iPod vs. Zune is almost pretty much the same difference as mac vs pc.
windows xp rules them all!
shut up thomas!
Vista sucks, 7 will suck :)
By that logic; because you suck, so your children will suck.
I actually thinks this is pretty funny, why do you all have to start arguing about it. laugh ladies and gentlemen at yourselves.
In a far more serious move some of you should visit the technology blog of the British newspaper "The Guardian" where one of their pro-microsoft writers is comparing microsoft fighting the 'I am a PC' campaign by Apple as being something akin to homosexuals reclaiming the word 'gay' (and he is serious). Its laughable:

As a casual observer and owner of MSFT stock....finally, an article that properly anticipates the final, true functionality of W7 (vs. the daily overblown, over hyped stories on W7). All those brainiacs and the best they could do is Vista (don't measure the success/failure by sales, measure it by the demand for XP). Hope I'm wrong on W7.
Maybe its time for Apple's OS to stand on its own merrit and get rid of Window support. I like to see sales numbers that is pure OSX. And while they are at it, they should also remove Exchange from iPhones.
I think your right on that. However some Windows users should stop complianing about OS X running only on Apple hardware. This is the way it's been for years at Apple ( Bar the clone years). In fact, Why should it even concern Windows users after all they hate OS X Right?.
God I love the Onion. Nail on the head.
was there any point to this being posted on here besides starting a flame/fanboi-war?
Please, never post something from daringfireball again. Thanks.
Since Mac OS 9 Apple Computers Has Had The Ability For Touchscreen Interfaces. In Snow Leopard it will be incorporated as well as long as the computer has the screen and drivers installed.
