> the most grim and embarrassing thing that's ever been done in Apple's name I think firing Steve Jobs or the famous Bill Gates appearance at the 1997 MacWorld are probably above that. I doubt this situation is even the worst they've bowed to a world leader. | ||

The Bill Gates appearance was grim in the optics of the time but in retrospect, burying the hatchet with Microsoft, ending the lawsuits, and getting firm committments and investments in the Mac software Microsoft was gonna make saved their ass. When you've been beaten, there is no shame in shaking your opponents hand. | ||
