Steve Jobs Claims Microsoft Is "Shamelessly Copying"

News.com: Steve Jobs says Microsoft is copying Apple. I'm interviewing Jim Allchin on Wednesday morning.

I think I'll ask him where his photo copier is.

Steve Jobs gets to write the industry's story. Truth is, Apple is ahead in a few areas. The one in the lead gets to write the story.

But there's more to the story than Steve is giving. More on that some other day. I'm taking my son out for a dad/son weekend in Northern California (we're up by Lassen National Park -- it's raining, don't know what we'll do).

Update: Oh, heck, here's two major things in Longhorn. Improved Tablet PC support and improved Media Center. I didn't realize Apple had a portable computer that you could use while standing up and that you could write on. Oh, I guess you could say we copied the Newton, but the Newton didn't run a full-fledged mainstream OS. And, I don't see a Macintosh designed to plug into your HDTV and play and record video on.
