    New king on the block: Microsoft beats Apple as world's most
    valuable company

    Apple has lost its crown as the globe's most valuable public
    company to Microsoft this week after the iPhone-making giant's
    shares dropped 2%.

    Apple's shares fell 1.8% on Friday, ending the trading session
    at $149.80 apiece. The company's market capitalization dropped
    to $2.48 trillion. Microsoft shares, however, showed 2.2%
    gains, reaching a record high of $331.62 per share, which
    propelled its market capitalization to roughly $2.49 trillion.

    Everytime I read a Windows vs Apple post, I'm reminded of the excellent docu-drama Pirates of Silicon Valley and this amazing cartoon from the early 90s that sums up the epic userbase fanaticism and inexplicable hatred of the opposing platform that was so prevalent in the 80s/90 computer world (didn't they know Amiga rules?) lol. :)
