3. Apple continues to follow Job's business strategy of locking in their customers and then exploiting them.No one is forcing anyone to buy Apple products but they must be doing something right having the highest market cap of any public company in the world along with the highest brand value. Fact. I guess success makes them a bad guy and a target. To be expected.
And if you're following Apple at all you'll see that the company isn't as locked into Job's old vision as it used to be.
It's going to be fun watching "Apple Pay" vs MCX "CurrentC". Which evil will win? ;-)
