[up]If we don't need the Microsoft page, then do we not need the Apple page either?

Strictly speaking, we don't need most pages on the wiki. The Microsoft page was cut because it was complaining; if the Apple page isn't it's going to stay.

I was one of the people who pushed to keep a heavily cleaned-up version of the Microsoft page. They're just as much a creator as Nintendo and Sony, and arguably more of one than Apple (since I'm not aware of Apple actually publishing any creative works themselves, merely publishing tools to create works with... which Microsoft also does).

I'll admit that you'd basically need to lock such a page, and any relaunch of a Microsoft page would have to be locked upon relaunch. But still, it seems like an odd hole to have in the scope of the wiki.

EDIT: Huh... I thought Apple Computers had a page. I found some of their platforms, but not the company themselves. That said, Mac OS does have a page.
