"Regardless of widespread skepticism, I was confident that Vista would dazzle me, and I looked forward to saying so in print. Ironically, playing around with Vista for more than a month has done what years of experience and exhortations from Mac-loving friends could not: it has converted me into a Mac fan."

on the other hand, Apple is the choice against Microsoft domination. it needs hardware integration because it can't afford to write drivers for everything in the pc universe. They can't afford to support everyone with zillions of configurations. Also, no OEM will offer any alternative OS. Apple must get its OS on its own hardware because nobody else will.
So I see the integration as more of a necessity for keeping the Mac choice alive but I wouldn't call it a plus.
Linux will need its own "mac" in addition to the freely distributed software in order to get more to switch.
