Ed -
 
Actually, I am old enough to remember both Microsoft and Borland producing
tools for Macintosh development. The Microsoft stuff wasn't all that wonderful
(it still isn't on the Windows platform) and Borland didn't have much success
competing with everyone else.
 
Just to really throw sand back at you, Symantec (actually, Think) is probably
more commonly used than Apple's tools.
 
I am not sure where you are coming from with your "disagreements." And I don't
see the anti-trust issues. I do see some foolishness, though.
 
Finally, regarding your last comment - "People need to stop complaining about
what Apple doesn't do, and simply do it themselves" - you CANNOT possibly mean
that all of us need to go out and write our own quirky class libraries and
development tools...?!
