I can't believe this is even an argument.  Apple has less than 10% pc
market share.  Virtually no business market share.  Until someone
comes up with a product that can compete with office (what is iWork
market share btw?)  This will not change.  I hope apple sells a ton of
computers...  Cause they will all have office on them and msft will
get paid nonetheless.  Look for apple to smoke msft in 12-36 months?
I don't even think the credit crunch will be over in 12-36 months.
How is apple going to smoke msft when the consumer is not there?
Apple's vast majority of products are sold to the American consumer,
and if you haven't been reading any news, I'll let you know the
american consumer is not looking to good right now
