Apple surges past Microsoft in revenue and almost matches it in profit

This is interesting but not the real story.  The real story is how 10 years ago it was "open source" that was going to wipe out Microsoft (Apple wasn't even part of the discussion and Google had just been born).  Well guess what?  It's the closed ecosystems and new proprietary cloud models that dominate with Open Source still interesting but not really a source of significant innovation.

Is that what open source has come to? Just a low cost solution for proven functionality?
