April 18, 2012 at 11:04 pmSee Discrete/Autodesk. I assume you saw the list. Their killing field is deep and started before Apple’s and cost people more money because the move was a lot more expensive then.

April 18, 2012 at 11:09 pmCraig, if you are talking to me then I do not have the slightest idea what you are talking about. I asked why I should trust a single word Apple says. No on has answered that other than to ask me who I do trust and why. And I repeat that that is obfuscation of the highest order.

April 18, 2012 at 11:31 pmI did in another response. Because you can make money during the life of the product. Of course if you feel you can’t make money during the life of a product than that would be a good reason not to trust a company.
