Why should Apple users care if Windows based PC users use Thunderbolt as long as they can get the hardware support they need?

FW never took off in the PC low end consumer market, but who cares? For people who wanted Windows machines with FW could always buy a business class machine from Dell, HP, Lenovo, or Sony.

Boy this is quite a switch from the fanboys who used to claim Apple INVENTED USB and the only reason PC users got USB peripherals was because Apple users had them first. My guess is in 20 years or so from now, some future Apple fangurl neophyte (probably Gary's grandson) will claim apple and it's user were responsible for the success of Thunderolt. :)

Alan Baker
To the best of my recollection, no one on this group that I have ever read has ever claimed that Apple INVENTED USB.

Flint
And of course, your recollection is not impaired in any way now that Gogle searches are impossible for you, ...right?

Sandman
Well, wasn't it your claim?

Flint
So it is...

Sandman
That you haven't substantiated? Why yes it was!

Flint
So I haven't, BFD.

Yes, credibility is not your thing. Big fucking deal - other trolls lie all the time, why not you, right?

Sandman
Alan is merely saying that he can't remember anyone saying what you claim they are saying. Either you prove your claim or admit that it was indeed false.

Flint
BFD. I can't remember him saying he stopped beating his mother, either.

So you wouldn't be forced to prove a negative. You claimed a positive, though. Here, I'll remind you:

"the fanboys [who] used to claim Apple INVENTED USB" -- Flint, the liar.

Sandman
because surely you didn't make the claim without first preparing some proof when asked? Right? :)

Flint
I don't feel compelled to prove eveything I posted in CSMA, either.

I know, I just make fun of your lies. You fanboys never feel compelled to substantiate *anything* you write. You just write the most outlandish things you can think of and then go "whatever, big fucking deal" when asked to actually provide support for what you say.

Carry on with the lies, Flint.
