Cmon guys, what is Apple doing that other companies aren't?
Just one example, Microsoft wanted to let you Export to PDF from Office when Vista came out, guess what, Adobe slapped a lawsuit on that a$$ and Microsoft was forced to drop the feature.
Not exactly the move of a company committed to open standards. These companies will throw the word open around when it suits them.
- Apple's support of open standards sounds like a token gesture .. Apple makes a big deal of being open, but is only open when they feel like it. He criticises Adobe for not being open, but admits Apple aren't either. It's hypocritical.********

- right, its not about not being open, but trying to pass for an open company, when they are just like M$Meeklo
- Open standards vs. letting people build 3rd party tools for your platform, different thingukit
