Worse. They do hardware. I did my first Mac coding on 68000 Macs
with NuBus. Those were REALLY open, and I just bet Steve Jobs still
wishes they could go back to the good old days. And I wouldn't be
surprised if Apple ever tries.
If the original Mac had taken off and gotten the market share MS has
today, There would be 2 3D video cards and they would both cost $2000.
Just my $.02,
