PMJI, but I'd bet that Apple is in *more* long-term trouble than CBM.
CBM at least has unique technology that does some things better
and/or cheaper than the alternatives out there. There really are
some good reasons to buy an Amiga. But look at poor Apple, all they
had was an operating system that used a mouse. And to use that
operating system you have to buy a comparatively expensive machine,
which they are only now addressing. Windows machines have really
hurt them, especially now that windows software is every bit as good
as the Mac stuff, and in many cases is exactly the same in feel and
features. While I think Macs still have a lot of advantages as far
as setting up software and connecting hardware, and I think Finder is
a lot nicer than windows, I'll bet that those advantages are pretty
hard to communicate to potential customers.
