Apple is a hardware proverb

 Apple is a hardware company - they build software to sell the hardware. The question really is, Why not support the installation of Windows on their computers?

 The big unanswered question in the market is whether Apple hardware could successfully sell with Windows on it, and by successful, I mean be competitive to a degree that it could grow Apple's hardware share massively.

 Apple has no desire or plan to sell or support Windows, but many customers have expressed their interest to run Windows on Apple's superior hardware now that we use Intel processors.

 Most hardware vendors are still testing their ACPI-compliant BIOS. Windows 98 is the first operating system that supports ACPI, and somebody has to lead the way, whether it's the hardware or software vendor.

 If [Microsoft] could make the same economics of the PC apply to telephony -- a small number of dominant hardware standards, a large number of hardware players and one big software company -- it could yield returns [for the company] commensurate to the PC [market],

 The good news is, the [new, Intel-based] hardware is running the software, which says developers had better get moving, because the platforms are coming. Things are looking fairly positive. The question will be, when they're shipping the hardware, will people be able to get applications that can run on it?

 Market research is showing us that for every $1 spent on Windows 2000, users in turn will spend $10 more on hardware, software, and services. Research also show that for users who already have existing servers and plan to upgrade to Windows 2000, 76 per cent of them plan on upgrading their hardware at the same time.

 When I came here, we were 85 percent or more hardware. There were very few IBM fellows in software. Software was just stuff to make the hardware work.

 Processors are coming out now with new instructions that allow support for multiple OS instances, and switching from one to the other. These hardware features need software support. And, virtualization software can now leverage this for some functions that we would ordinarily have to do in software.

 The question on everyone's lips is - when will we see the next one, and will it have a more malicious payload. Apple Mac users need to be just as careful about protecting their computers with anti-virus software, firewalls and security patches as their friends and colleagues using Windows. The hacker Pex Tufvesson created the music program Noisetracker.

 If what Apple provides as a hardware platform is interesting to the open-source community, it would not surprise me very much that a group of people will find a way to port Linux to that hardware in short order.
