>Apple designs something new, tries hard to get it right the first time, and commits to it completely. Oh really? That must be why they removed all of their USB and HDMI ports to replace them with Thunderbolt ports. Anyway, let me get back to writing my IOS apps in AppleScript and hosting my website on my Xserve. While I'm doing that I'll being sharing my music listening habits will all of my friends on Ping. The point of that is that they hardly ever commit to things as 'completely' as you imply. They just have a conservative marketing strategy where they won't release anything until much later than most companies would. |

That doesn't even make sense. Thunderbolt and USB/HDMI cater to different needs. When they added thunderbolt they DID take out their Firewire ports. And when they added USB they did take out legacy mouse, keyboard etc ports.
>Anyway, let me get back to writing my IOS apps in AppleScript
Again, doesn't even make sense. Applescript is a legacy language they maintain. Designed pre-OS X. Not something they actively designed for iOS or anything.
>and hosting my website on my Xserve
They would, if enough people were interested. They weren't, so they killed the product. Same for ping.
