Fair point, I did actually mean open source in the more general sense than the copyleft subset of open licences.
> The success of Apple has nothing to do with the copyleft software they use....Now if you say "open source has been an integral part on the success of Apple", I would agree with that.
I sense you're nitpicking for the sake of nitpicking :) In any case, I think we agree the same point.
