Zettabyte Shut Down

jpt.d writes "Zettabyte (those who put the SuperDrive in the eMac) have been shut down without detailed explaination. They only say, 'Due to Legal Restrictions we will no longer be able to sell our SuperDrive equipped eMac.' Does anyone have any more details about this?"

    From the days of the original Mac, it's this type of crap which has kept the Apple machines behind the curve, technology-wise. That is, slow to adapt to changing markets and technologies. Sure they control everything about their machines and the market, but look at the price they pay. It's going on twenty years since the first Macs came out and look where they are in the market -- hey, about where they were twenty or so years ago.

    Let's just say they're content with tiny market share and pat them on their little heads and IGNORE THEM like we've been doing for, oh, about twenty years.

    Oy, I'm really cranky today, sorry.

    . . . that Apple is their Un*x loving saviour from Bill's Evil Empire and Palladium would do well to note that their actions indicate they want to be just like Microsoft. They're just not as good at it.
