I see the point that someone could make if they were using Apple as an example but like you, I do not think Apple's OS is their bread and butter plus they are a strange case. Similar to how other low cost airfare carriers have tried to simulate Southwest's model and have failed. I really just can't see a company putting all the resources into developing a new OS and seeing a huge gain. Dell could come out with an OS but there customer base would still want Windows so it would be hard for them to break through .... its not like they could force it on their customers. It a saturated market anyway. I totally agree with you.
