APPLE PUTS USERS ON A NEED-TO-HAVE BASIS

Considering how bright and enthusiastic Apple's engineers and
product managers are, I know each day brings dozens of new ideas to the
conference table. Ultimately, Apple turns thumbs down on 995 out of
1,000 of those ideas. Apple could easily stuff in the box with every
copy of OS X four supplemental DVDs containing all the brilliant ideas
its engineers have dreamed up and all the open source projects advanced
by groups within the company. It could fill the unoccupied 2GB of the OS
X client DVD with optional goodies. But it doesn't. The company
famous for the pretty computers and the borderline sinful Aqua GUI
doesn't actually show off. It gives users only what they absolutely
need. Seriously.
