Boy, I've got to put my two bits in on this one. And keep in mind that I am an
avid Mac user. I agree with Darryl. Why should Intergraph or anyone else not
be allowed to setup, unless there is a concern it will take away business from
the company with the most clout (Apple) at the show? And how is it "bad
manners" to display a product (even if the product is not the primary focus of
the show) offering an alternative (and letting the consumer decide)? Sounds to
me like Apple is developing Microsoft's monopoly mentality. I say let the
consumer decide and then maybe companies will make what consumers want instead
of companies telling us what we need.
Regards,
Kurt
