And that is why I never buy Apple. I continue to be amazed that a company which is responsible for such cutting edge technology and engineering excellence maintains such an old school attitude to business, its customers and its developers. Apple just doesn't get the concept of openness. It's stuck in the 80s.

Apple's attitude is incredibly modern; just not open.
Do we HAVE to be 100% open all the time now, really? That makes no sense. Apple have killer products all the way from distribution to consumption; they've marketed them and sold them with effectiveness other companies only dream of!
I certainly cant fault them for wanting to keep that success to themselves :)
