Yeeaaah,what IS up with that? I haven't seen the main page for awhile (I'm always logged in on my Mac...), and I was on another machine this past weekend and saw it... Hell, the ONLY good thing out of it was a preview of the Paranormal Activity 2 trailer...
Well, that's a fairly arty way of looking at it -- in terms of innovation vs. knockoffs. From a business standpoint, though, the idea is to serve your customers by giving them something close to what they want.
So, for instance, you use Windows, even though it is the end product of many years in which Microsoft looked at Apple's operating systems and said "Apple good. Must imitate Apple." Windows serves your needs; that outweighs the knockoff factor.
