Oh come on. Stop. This is just wild and I mean "wild" speculation. I mean, Smart TVs are starting to get Apple TV apps built into them, but sure... Apple's going to at the same time cut off an entire market of Windows users just cuzz... There's already an iTunes app for the Windows store. They'll probably announce something later in the summer for Windows. Be it Continued Windows desktop support, new Windows store apps, but I seriously, seriously doubt they're going to just say ... bye Felicia to Windows period. Either way, it's all just speculation. Let's just wait and see on what they actually do.

My theory has been for a while that Apple will stop supporting Windows. Sure, they may lose some sales of Apple Music and iPhones, but at some point, I figure they'll start thinking they'll make up those losses in more sales of the Mac. I think people will start buying Macs because they have iPhones and have bought into the Apple ecosystem instead of looking for phones that will work with their Windows PC's. I know my good friend Sieghard and I disagreed on this point a while ago, and so far he's been right, but I'm still thinking time will prove me right eventually!
