Yes the good programs were bought in, as in Apple bought the
company and tried to mold it to the Apple look and feel.
Garageband, Logic Studio, Final Cut, by the time these become
real Apple apps they will be obsolete.
The article made an unfortunate example of Dell, who were never
really in the same camp as Apple. Dell were at best one step
above a white box assembler, and now they have allowed their
suppliers to push them one step below that level. This ignominy
will never fall on Apple. They'll think of some much more
glorious way to go out.

His point is that by pushing all the manufacturing and
assembly on to another company(and not doing keeping control
yourself) that you are in danger of teaching that company how
to compete with you.
Eventually they get tired of doing 99% of the work and
getting 1% of the reward.
