"If Apple ever overruns Redmond, we'll all look back on Microsoft as comparatively benevolent."
Excellent statement, Jerald. As a lifelong Apple and PC user I would have to agree. I believe some measures that Apple has enacted in the past regarding some "defective" items have been highly suspect. You're correct, Microsoft would appear benevolent in comparison to Apple's sometimes draconian edicts regarding some of their hardware issues.
That being said, as a lifelong member of both camps (Apple and Micro$oft) Apple users tend to behave like a bunch of hall monitors at times. Always ready with whistle in hand, to blow it when the littlest Apple hardware steps out of line. That's just my opinion, I could be wrong.;)
