Just read this article and thought it was interesting. I have never liked Apple's secrecy and Proprietary systems (though this has made their computers somewhat safer than Windows machines).

Yes.
Ross Perot was quoted, in reference to General Motors, "Success breeds arrogance, and complacency." It's a difficult pitfall to avoid, especially for a "rebel" company like Apple.

Here's another good article on Apple's vision of future computing:

I just maxed my TFSA with Apple stock a couple months ago and have done well ever since. So everybody, please keep buying those pads and phones and apps. Apple is still way cool!
