Steve Jobs on Competition

Jobs treats competition as something that should force better products and better institutions, not just bigger market share. He says Apple should compete by integrating hardware and software, building better products than rivals, and pushing industries like education away from monopoly toward customer choice.

“What's best for the customer, fragmented versus integrated?”
“Our schools fail because there is no competition.”
“Well, they decided to compete with us.”
