With or without those Microsoft demos, you know that lots of people will still go that route. You have the same choice as before with Flash-only so-called websites: try to navigate them to access the desired content or simply go elsewhere.
At least with hardware-accelerated canvas, it's going to be much faster than Flash on non-Windows systems.
Shortly after Mr. Jobs returned to Apple in 1997 as part of the company's acquisition of NeXT, Dell's founder and chairman, Michael Dell, was asked at a technology conference what might be done to fix Apple, then deeply troubled financially.
"What would I do?" Mr. Dell said to an audience of several thousand information technology managers. "I'd shut it down and give the money back to the shareholders."
All we need to do is boost Canadarm to the level required to operate a giant slingshot to send spacecrafts into space. That's still better than a cannon!
When we talk about software, companies are more like car dealerships. You can't Toyota dealerships to sell Ford vehicles, much less do maintenance on those.
When we talk about media, companies are more like groceries stores. A music file should play on all music-playing devices capable of reading files. Ex: iTunes now sells plain AAC files which can be played on a lot of non-Apple devices. As an example, you can play a tune bought on iTunes and play it on your Nintendo DSi.

If you have one bucket that contains 2 gallons and another bucket that contains 7 gallons, how many buckets do you have?

It sure can! In fact, it does four of them at once!

You call that an antenna?
I don't get that kind of reasoning at all.

In some cases it's industry-standard formats, sometimes even open formats.
Mac OS X saves screen captures in PNG.
Preview can save in GIF, JPEG, JPEG2000, BMP, PDF, PSD, PNG, TGA, TIFF and a few other formats.
iTunes understands WAV, AIFF, MP3, AAC, MPEG-4, H.264.
Calendar uses the iCal format and Address Book uses the vCard format.
Mac OS X itself can print directly to PDF. If an application can print, it can output to PDF automatically.

You mean news like this?
It's a bit late to tell me that I can't do that.
Just in case some of you remember those lines but can't quite remember which movie it was from.
Just fix your sarcasm detector?
Indeed, how can they morally justify taking away the wood chips, citrus peel, and straw puree from the poor?
Oh wait.
You're also too late. They have been overthrown by the Monsanto corn-based overlords.
Completely unrelated, but do you realize that even VHS tapes must have gone through beta-testing?
Time to enter the market with the Pringles Cantenna for iPhone 4! Only 7.99$ and you get a pile of chips* as a bonus!

I also miss commercial breaks.
Yeah, if you have to go then commercial breaks really are a good thing.
Are we talking microwave diners and paper plates here?
Wait, what?
Ok buddy, you owe me a new sarcasm detector!
Charge for it, put ads in it, charge a low price and put ads in it, but for crying out loud make Hulu available in Canada.
I see what you did, there.
Not much of an IPO if all you got is 37 leet shares for sale.
Not only do they open, but the latest version of the Mac mini only requires something called "thumbs" to access the memory slots.
