i was on time square, supporting microsofts new “i’m a PC”-campaign. unfortunately i ducked down in the beginning of my video, so you don’t see me but my room (lower screen). funny, however.
i neather was in new york, nor near to it, but my face reached it already.
A Doppelgänger!
if there would be a Steve Ballmer look-a-like-contest or a movie about Ballmer, our german soccer manager of Hertha BSC Dieter Hoeneß could surely rock it!
“ my prediction: Apple will get the same problems - in maybe 3 years - as Microsoft had 6 years ago.”
when you open your system (MacOS) to other technologies (Intel, 64bit, …) the same strange shit happens that Windows made down since Windows 95 (IBM, 32bit, …).
when you dance on too many weddings (hardware, software, stores, …) and try to release things as early as possible, more and more bad things will happen (like security vulnerability, account problems like in .me or the app store).
and if more and more people use macintosh, the more viruses and malware will be around.
mostly, commercial things went bad in our times, that’s a normal cycle. after that: someone new (or old?) will come with new technologies and the same things happen again.
it’s just as easy as that.
(another example? Microsoft Internet Explorer > Mozilla Firefox > Google Chrome)
