Look at their products such as iPod, upcoming iPhone, etc. No 3rd party software allowed as usual. And as for the apple comps, upgradeability always was an issue. I most certainly wouldn't wish Apple becoming a dominant home PC, though that most likely won't happen anytime soon. I don't mind apple OS running on PCs, it's better at some point.

This partie support is allowed in iPhone, the problem is that the PC media have confused the words "closed API" and "it must be validated by Apple" with no third partie support.

Actually this is the same situation of OS X, we program in closed APIs (Cocoa and Carbon) and we must validate our applications in the ADC.
