I remember about 8, 9 years ago I warned that Apple was paying 
too much attention to the iPhone and that it was neglecting the 
Desktop/Laptop users. Who cares, right? I read about a year ago 
that Apple had a problem and sales were dropping, because they 
were neglecting their Desktop/Laptop users. Well, what can I say. 
I stopped using Apple years ago, because they became the same as 
(or worse than) MS. This whole App-store lock-in, the whole 
you-have-to-register-or-die-approach. F**k you! Enter Linux.
