Apple took over the CUPS project. They didn't write it. They're improving  
it a lot with every major OSX release, so I'm not sure why you're so  
upset. Apple is the company that is convincing HP, Brother, Lexmark, etc  
to agree on a common interface for printing, scanning, faxing, etc.  
They're doing a lot of good in the printing world.
