On June 23, June 19, according to foreign media reports, Mozilla Chief Operating Officer John Lilly recently criticized Apple CEO Steve Jobs for ignoring the existence of the Firefox browser.
At Apple's WWDC conference last week, Apple released a beta version of the Safari 3.0 browser for Windows systems. During his speech, Steve Jobs first demonstrated the current processor market structure. The IE market share was 78%, Firefox was 15%, and Safari was 2%.
However, Steve Jobs then showed another chart where Safari's market share was 15%, and the rest were all IE browsers, with no share of Firefox.
"It's not careless, It's not accidental negligence on other browsers, or even a sales trick," Lilly said in his blog recently. There are many words that can be used to describe Steve Jobs's speech, but they cannot be 'careless 'or 'unexpected '."
Lilly believes: "In fact, this is Apple's ambition. They think they can win so much market share ." In this regard, Lilly said that because of Steve Jobs's thinking, Mozilla will not leave.
Lilly was also angry with Steve Jobs. Lilly also said that Steve Jobs's idea was outdated. Moreover, Apple cannot achieve this goal.
According to the Net Applications data, in May this year, the market share of IE browser was 78.7%, Firefox was 14.5%, and Safari was 4.8%. However, on the first day of the release of Safari Windows 2nd, a system security vulnerability exists, which makes Steve Jobs very embarrassed.
