You're too young to remember apple in the 90s then. (the non-Steve years)
Every beige PowerMac they produced was a visciously expensive, underperforming steaming turd of a machine, and every OS between 7.5 and OSX was bloated, ugly as sin, devoid of proper multitasking, and just fucking awful. And then there were the licenced clones. Dumb idea.
Even the first iMacs and G3s were shit, because they were still running OS9. OSX couldn't come soon enough.

Didn't really have a problem with pre OSX operating systems, they did everything I asked of them... Design, making music, etc... The PC alternative was horrific...

thats dictatorship vs democracy; I am talking about a consumer product
Apple is now clearly showing the signs of threatened contender with bigger iPhone and the watch which is clearly pushed out quicker than it should be for consumers to be prototype testers as android watches are closing in to their 2nd generation.
And my whole point is I remember Apple to be the original company which made others feel that they are falling behind .. what happened?
(cue in some android fanboy posting video of how Apple stole UI from xerox and they were never original)
