A Lo Blow:
Netgear CEO Attacks 'Closed' Apple Products
Patrick Lo, CEO of Netgear, has used a speech in Sydney to launch a wide-ranging attack on Apple's products.
Lo criticises the proprietary nature of Apple products and believes that the departure of Steve Jobs would force the company to re-evaluate their strategy.
From The Sydney Morning Herald:
"Once Steve Jobs goes away, which is probably not far away, then Apple will have to make a strategic decision on whether to open up the platform," said Lo.
"Ultimately a closed system just can't go that far ... If they continue to close it and let Android continue to creep up then it's pretty difficult as I see it."
