    Hate to break it to you, but Apples marketshare has DROPPED since the Appletalk days. There seems to be some misconception that MSFT is going downhill and AAPL is going uphill but the numbers tell a different story. MSFT enjoyed a 7% increase in revenue last quarter alone, while AAPL's growth has been in the iPod area. There are no similarities between AAPL and MSFT in that front.

    This article is nothing more than a rant by a flamming Apple fanboi. Daniel Eran is too busy jerking off to his giant poster of Stevey Jobs to know whats actually going on. I'd expect Slashdot editors to know better, but they seem to be Apple shills at this point.
