[Elecraft] Elecraft and Apple

[AB8XA]

I've compared Elecraft to Apple for a long time. They make products they'd love to use and hope others love them too. Those who truly love great hardware want to make their own great software for it (Steve Jobs paraphrased). I think these describe both Apple and Elecraft. Elecraft doesn't open-source their software, and for the most part, neither does Apple.  Yes, Elecraft might makes kits that let you "get inside" the hardware, but they also don't support or warranty user modifications.  Like Apple, they're announcing a game-changing product at a world major event.

This time, Elecraft has, in my opinion, outdone even Apple in product development secrecy!
