Apple No Longer Thinks Differently?

Mark Gibbs over at NetworkWorld is having a problem with Apple’s business paradigm of late and is not afraid to express his views. Gone are the days when Apple was the underdog and the friend of their nonconformist customers, only to be replaced by profit driven bottom lines. Say it ain’t so, Mark. Say it ain’t so. Face it Mark, Apple has become an adult in the computer world.

Prior to 2003, the year Apple launched iTunes, the company was ... well, hardly humble ... but they were rather more modest. They believed in themselves, sure, maybe with what you might call "a passion," but their arrogance was centered on the idea that they made better products and served their customers better than the competition.
