Time: 12:36 EST/17:36 GMT | News Source: Microsoft | Posted By: John Quigley

MS has confirmed all development for MAC platform has stopped. Company spokesperson pointed out that the market share for MAC is no longer viable, and that resources would better be spent porting the products to Linux platform. "The numbers don't lie, Linux's market share is 4 times Macs, and with the deal with Novell, we need to strike while the iron is Hot". This change has affected the stock price in after hours trading, MS being up by $3.00 a share, with experts like Jim Cramer predicting a 50% surge in stock value because of the expanded market base for new revenue.

Apple was and IS still the innovator, due not to have the backup finances like Microsoft and playing by the rule, they were small and are today.

The only thing what MS did, was gallop up all competiton and innovations of Apple.

All what vista shows, comes from the Apple braintank.

The only thing they don't do, is copying the Operating System, because it's UNIX....

Now that the money seems to come from another well (LINUX) they step in.
