Hey, maybe if Apple is doing open source, Microsoft will follow up and do it as well, just as they ripped Apple (who in turn ripped Xerox) off with the GUI interface.
Well, technically they did buy it, but if Xerox knew what they had at the time and what it would have turned into, I don't think in their right mind they would have sold it for what they did. The people that worked at Xerox that developed it were pretty ticked they spent all that time and then they just sell it off and of course then Apple doesn't hire them, who would at that time want to work with Apple anyways.
