Every year now, apple is becomming more and more popular; from there hot iPod releases or there beutiful notebook designs, etc. So are they in there 15 minutes of fame, or are they just emerging to be one on of the top companies in the world? Are they going to keep becomming more and more popular in the computer industry, or will another company take over as the leading mp3 seller?

The way Apple is rolling now, I don’t think they will ever fall off the map. Right now they are in there prime. Their line of iPods are skyrocketting, there notebooks are by far the best looking and are slowly becomming the most popular. Then finally, people are switching over from PC/Linux more than ever

The Road of Opportunity

Microsfost is getting hit, and they’re getting hit hard. People are bashing on vista left and right, saying that downgrading to xp would be an upgrade. Then apple on the other side is climbing, they are attracting many users with there Leopard, having people switch over from windows.

I have been interacting with people, listening to people complain about windows. They talk about switching, how excited they are to move over from the awful windows interace to the more beautiful OS X user interface. So right now, I do believe the Apple is here too stay, they aren’t in there 15 minutes of fame, only because every year is better than the last.

The Future Only Get’s Brighter

Now that Apple has everyone talking, they got people’s attention, now they can really take off. They grabbed the music listener’s with the iPod, ever since then, there iPod has been on fire. The iPod currently is 63% of all mp3 players while the next closest, is the zune with only 13%.

This is from the seattle PI:

Zune won 9 percent of the U.S. market, measured by unit sales, and 13 percent of the dollar volume.

The iPod represented 63 percent of unit sales and 72.5 percent of dollar volume.

Believe me on this one, it is just a matter of time before Apple will soon gain control of the computer industry. Most of the people that I have had the chance to meet all have on thing in common, when they get a chance to sit down with a mac for at least 15 minutes, they already like it much better than windows.

The user-interface is just so much more user-friendly. It’s easier to find what you need, to organize things and much much more. However, many PC users say that the PC is way more customizable; meaning you can change the user-interface on the PC more than you can with a mac. That is not entirelly true, I believe that the mac is more customizable. You can do it all the hard way, which is doing it by hand or you can it an easier way, which is just as good in my opinion.

Here, download Mac Pilot, it allows you to fully customize the user interface of the Mac. I used it, and I loved it. I moved my dock, I changed how the doc looks. Believe me though, you can do much more than that, you can change how you login, you change how everything looks. It is all easy too, just check a few buttons then click apply and your done.

Your Thoughts

Apple has been around for 30+ years. They are now emerging as one of the top technology corporations. They captured the music industry, and there on there way to the Computer industry. So is this there 15 minutes of fame? No, it is not, if they just tried to capture the music industry they would be done, but there not. They keep expanding, first it was the music, now they are really trying to attract computer users, at the same time to the mobile phone indusrty.

Apple will never stop expanding. This isn’t there 15 minutes of fame, it’s there lifetime of fame.

What are your thoughts? What else do you think Apple will try to capture from the people.
