Comments on: Ballmer on mobile: Apple will lose and we'll win because 'we're separatists'

CEO Steve Ballmer has fighting words for Apple, but he keeps forgetting the party line, probably because it keeps changing.

It seems there are the usual types of people in this topic - those who simply hate Microsoft and will never like anything they do and those who are willing to try things out.

Like Alex, I tried out a WinMo device - a Samsung Omnia - and for me it's much better than the iPhone. This will not be the case for other people but for me it is. The rest of you should put aside your prejudices but, sadly, I doubt you will.; Like this Reply to this comment

by shycelticwitch November 4, 2008 1:34 PM PST: Once again, Alex is writing his books on CNET. My hand gets tired of scrolling to get past the onslaught of useless drivel that he calls experience. I am so excited for you that you have all of this technical knowledge which means absolutely zip when it comes down to the brass tacks. Just because something has more parts to it doesn't mean it's better... it just means there's more to go wrong with it.

If you want to say Apple sucks, do it. Don't waste our time and insult our intelligence with OPINIONS that have little to do with the facts.; Like this Reply to this comment

How in the heck can you write books if you can't even form a proper sentence?; Like this Reply to this comment
