Teh Stevie said it himself: it’s all about the software. The soul of the Mac is the software, and it has always been. This doesn’t mean that Apple would have to give up the hardware though. Apple already has great hardware and people are buying it even to run Windows on it. So there won’t be hardware cannibalization.
A licensed OSX would literally change the world :)
Leopard’s Finder has a new skin but the flaws are still there. Come on! FTFF
And no, Coverflow isn’t useful.
Apple should make an affordable Mac mid Tower. It could serve a lot of markets including business, education, gamers, geeks. Some argue that it’d be too expensive for these markets but consider this: OSX is being crippled in potential by the lack of hardware options. If Apple doesn’t want to license OSX they might as well give us the most popular desktop form-factor which keeps striving in the PC world. If Apple cares so much about their users, be fair and let the users decide which desktop they prefer best.
