> Nothing happens on an Apple device without Cupertino’s knowledge, and as a result Apple can perfectly tailor its devices for it users (and ratchet up record-breaking quarterly earnings in the process).
Are Apple's devices "perfectly tailored for it[s] users"? I don't see any of that tailoring when I use them.
The reason why Apple ratchets up record-breaking earnings is that they build things people want; they build incredibly good devices.
Google is playing with fire; the thing it has that people want is not G+ or Reader or even Gmail: it is search. If they break search, they will die.
