No, boisssy, the fact that companies use other companies' stuff in their product is a GOOD thing.
The more "parties" you have contributing, the more options you have. Take any computer. Everything is from different companies. RAM, keyboard, monitor, mouse, printer, graphics video and sound cards, speakers, processor, motherboard, OS, etc. And don't get started on all the programs you'll be installing and whatnot. Microsoft NEEDS companies like Intel, Nvidia, AMD to make their computer hardware, and they're OK with that, because no company can specialize in everything.
When Apple tries to do everything itself, it starts failing, not succeeding.
Computers are one thing, obviously its made of all sorts of parts from companies.
But I'm talking about Apple specifically they are not revolutionary, they are a company that puts together this thing called the "Ipad" and sells it for double the price. Obviously business is business, but what I'm trying to get at is that people think Apple is the shit when clearly they ain't shit, but it helps other companies make money from the parts of the Ipad haha.
And Apple can't do anything themselves in the first place, they don't invent anything besides their fail OS. Like I said before, they focus on marketing more than anything, they ain't revolutionary, soon their products will be "so last year."
