Apple: A Bigger Open Source Enemy Than Microsoft? 

,----[ Quote ]
| But I remain perplexed by the mentality that Apple, by virtue of being a 
| perceived underdog (at least on the desktop market), is somehow on ‘our side’ 
| despite being no different than Microsoft in most regards.  Maybe I’m just 
| too much of a freetard (to borrow the eloquent language of Fake Steve Jobs), 
| but I find this reality hard to deny.    
| 
| It’s also worth observing that, as the computing industry continues to move 
| towards high-powered mobile devices, in which Apple is heavily invested, a 
| more direct confrontation between Linux and the Mac world seems inevitable.  
| The days of ignorantly blissful coexistence may be numbered.

| As far as the fanboys are concerned, Woz speaks heresy when he compares the
| Iphone SDK limitations to Google's Android.
|
| He said that punters were not getting all they want when companies are
| proprietary and lock their products down. He said he would like to write some
| more powerful apps for the Iphone than you're allowed.
