@arstechnica Not even "PC emulators." DOS emulators! Not exactly a big competitor. Or a competitor at all...
This is a good reminder of why a wildly proprietary gated device and library was never ok. Eventually they'll change their minds and come around after all the flak and when the higher ups realize that emulating a DOS system isn't exactly going to send people flooding to the competition or cause rampant piracy or whatever, but it doesn't change that this happens in the first place.
