When young Bill Gates first created Windows he had a choice:
To sign a contract with IBM or Apple.
Unfortunately he signed a contract with IBM so we are now all using just a mix of parts instead of a pre-built system. This causes the problems (illegal operation etc) and the Mac is alot more reliable.
Oh well this topic sucks :D

Not quite...

IBM had the choice- Apple OS or Windows...

They went to the house of the Apple people (Jobs), whichn is kinda like having GOD visit you. Jobs opens the door, they ask to have a meeting, he says he's having a party... come back later...

So IBM went with MS for that reason...
