Awesome! This is so true! In every phone, there is a PC trying to get out. Did you hear that Apple? A PC. Not an iDevice with a stripped down operating system.

You are correct. But that was before WWDC 2011. I believed in Apple. But I was wrong.

Apple doesn't need that. Mountain lion will be a mix of iOS and OS X.

Oh by the way, do you hear Apple, "What!? Can't hear you! After we're done swimming in our money we'll get back to you."

p.s.- I was going to thumb you up, until you went on a mini "I hate Apple" rant.

Well I've seen this long coming and I think it's wonderful in so many ways.
Btw I have to.. ugh.. defend apple here.
They actually went far in the road of merging Mac and IOS.. if not iPad 3, iPad 4 will for sure offer full Mac capabilities.
And with the airplay, you can fully mirror IOS to Mac already.
