What are some advantages of apple's super proprietary approach? After having tried linux a number of times, I'm really seeing the benefits of tight control. Here are the advantages that come to mind
-quality control
-fluid user experience
-software and hardware work better together
The big thing for me is accessibility. Apple has done a great job making all their products, sadly except the apple tv, accessible to disabled users out of the box after years of being one of the most inaccessible OSs out there.
Don't get me wrong. this tight control has drawbacks. I can't use a browser other then safari, but what else is new? I can't use chrome or opera on windows either.
