  1. Comment - Dell: We Would License Mac OS X

    (Jun 20, 2005 - 12:59 PM)

    I don't think it would kill them. Apple has always been very strict. Thus one would expect that this will not change. If they were to work with HP for example. Apple already has a great relationship with HP and that will make things much easier. HP (Compaq) is also much more strict about the hardware standards they follow.

    I can see Apple and HP joining forces and creating a HP system that will run OS X. If Apple only makes drivers for specific HP or Dell gear, you will still not have the problem of piracy, but will probably double the market share overnight. I know I would switch tomorrow.

    What if HP and Apple did this. HP already has a good relationship with Apple.

    Also, Apple could make drivers specific to the HP hardware thus makeing piracy less of an issue.

    I think this would double the market share overnight. I know I would switch tomorrow.

    If Microsoft feels threatened, they will crush Apple.
