They could have chosen Samsung's way of adopting multiple OS instead of depending completely on MS
Nokia was trusted by so many people , but still it went down in no time.
Why ?It Didn't listen to consumers.
Samsung has a cheap design , plastic etc. but that's what people are buying.Why ? because Samsung designed touchwiz keeping average consumer in mind and made design decisions according to consumer's voice (like SD-card , light weight , slim design , removable battery etc.)
Windows Laptops (majority of the sold ones) have crappy screens , cheap trackpads , unbearable keyboards etc. but still sell better than Well-designed,industrial design Macbooks.Why ? because OEMs listen to what consumers want and keep them (like optical drive or high end graphic card etc.) but Apple doesn't.
What have you been smoking??
People buy Samsung products because they have a massive marketing and advertising operation and put more money into getting the brand out than anything else.
And finally windows laptops from OEM's with crappy screens etc sell more than Macbooks due to the $1000 price difference.
Neither things have anything to do with listening to consumers - its all about brand mentality and the money in your bank
