Yes, that little company in Redmond does rather well without also 
saddling themselves with manufacturing computers.

Indeed, the best computing value I've ever had relative to other 
concurrent offerings was my Power Computing box.

A lot of folks like to point to Apple's failed cloning experiment as an 
example of why cloning must necessarily fail.  But such a view overlooks 
that Apple is the only example of such a failure.

I would argue that if Apple had entered cloning with anything more than 
a half-baked, half-hearted effort (to to mention the iron fist they 
wielded over cloners) we might once again see a 10% marketshare for an 
Apple OS.
