As usual Apple came much, much later than others and thus could use newer technology.
Funny how times have changed. Apple was utter shit back in the early days of personal computing when it took more than a rounded rectangle to be innovative.
Praising Apple like they've revolutionized anything is a slap in the face of those who actually did pioneer.
