Yeah. And in my opinion, Amazon is eating Satya's lunch. So, it's not clear to me what Microsoft is a leader in anymore.
I am not an old timer like some here that has a MacSE, but for 20+ years, this is the biggest come back of Apple, and many of us were once hoping for. For me it was a simple thesis, something that is so much better deserve to be in a better position. May be it was more of a hatred against Microsoft in a way, since they were shipping crap after crap.
And here we are, Apple dominating and will continue to do so. But since 2016 Apple smells exactly the same as Google in 2003. Don't be evil Hypocrisy.
Except this time around Apple has the better product, services and brand. From a strategic point of view there are no major flaws of weakness. Google's only major weakness was relying on browser for access. That is why they created Chrome. They also saw what could happen if everyone were using iPhone. They will have access dictated by Apple so they need to built Android.
But Apple has no access problem. They are the final End Point ( or starting point would be more appreciate ) of all technology and digitalisation.
> I'm blind because I think Apple products are so great.
Not really, objectively speaking it is hard to argue Apple's product are not some of the best on the market.
