Arrogance is offensive no matter who it comes from. Steve Job's
arrogance is why OS X shipped without CD burning capabilities, for
instance.
And something tells me that when Bill Gates decides to offer a service
like this to the other 95% of the market in the way Apple is offering
it to us, it'll happen. The only question is - will it happen before
Apple offers it to Windows users and make Apple's offering irrelevant
on the Windows side of things.
