Apple "We all cheered when Apple began experimenting with community-driven, open source development for its flagship operating system. But if those experiments are now drawing to a close, should anyone really be surprised? In his columns earlier this year, InfoWorld's resident Mac aficionado Tom Yager noted how Apple seemed to be backpedaling away from open source. Seen through that lens, last week's news that the OpenDarwin Project would be closing its doors looks like just another sign of the times."

Because these are apple products and in the eyes of the right Apple addict they can do no wrong, will shoddy build quality and overheating discourage you from buying future apple products? "Hell no! i'm a hip Mac user i wont touch one of those pee-cees and my iPod rocks!"
Apple have this die-hard core customer base who worship the ground Jobs walks on and who will always buy Apple because it's become an unbreakable habbit.
