Perhaps that points out one of Microsoft's major weak points. Their  
idea of studying the competitor may well be very weak. I'd say this is  
born out of arrogance. After all they (Microsoft) have been the  
dominant PC OS supplier in the world for a long time.

Apple is an arrogant company in some ways, but the one thing Apple  
does better than most other retail companies, is that it has not  
forgotten that the must serve their customers with premium products  
both hardware and software wise.
