Alright, didn't I say this a few weeks back on the show. I think it was to a guest at the time and the response was not much agreement. In fact, I believe I said this a few times. Now I cannot recall what episode that was.

Re: Apple is Linux's main competition - hmmm
You know, I agree with you man. Microsoft is in big trouble right now, and as far as I'm concerned, Apple is acting as controlled opposition (keep in mind Microsoft bough several non-voting shares of stock years back.... if they still own said stock anyway, they would profit if Apple were to profit). Apple is very restrictive concerning OS X (i.e. it can't be run on third party hardware, even though it can be made to work, thus proving that they're charging way too much for their machines).
