Apple's Missed Opportunity With Leopard Delay

An anonymous reader writes "According to an article on OSWeekly.com, Apple missed a big opportunity by not releasing Leopard soon. They could've taken advantage of Vista's losing streak and one upped Microsoft, the author suggests. 'It's not uncommon for Windows users and technology consumers in general to say that Microsoft missed out on making the most of Vista both before and after its launch. Longtime fans of Windows have changed their tone due to Vista's inadequacies, and regular users are in many cases stuck with trying to figure out why they still can't get certain things to work within the operating system. Granted, it's not a completely horrific OS, but is that even a compliment worth accepting?'"

Re:Macs are not replacing Windows PCs

most FOSS software is not Linux specific and targets Mac OS X as well. Except the fact that OS X is not FOSS. At any rate, until they get something like the Debian repositories, forget about me going for something else than a Linux system. Seriously, the magic of apt (and, on a lesser extent, of yum/yast/pacman/etc) and the repositories is something almost impossible to duplicate in a closed OS.
