All company's "steal" ideas from all other company's, thats just the way corporations work.
Does Apple steal more, I don't think so.
Apple doesn't own any other companies. However, Apple does have partnership with companies like Intel and some other companies for computers.
Microsoft got some ideas from what Apple were doing in order to create Windows. Apple had themselves got some of their ideas for their Graphic User Interface from Xerox. So neither Apple not Macintosh were the first to create Graphic User Interfaces with a desktop style. All companies use ideas from other companies and try to develop them and bring out their own variations. That is not necessarily stealing. It actually helps in the progression of different computer systems to give us the huge variations of technologies that we have today.Microsoft got some ideas from what Apple were doing in order to create Windows.

no the apple company havent merged with any other companies
Apple is fruit. Apple cannot think to invent anything.
There are many companies. There is Apple, Mac, other tech companies. There's Colgate, Aquafresh and other toothpaste companies. Hope I answered this question.
No. Xerox was. Their Alto computer inspired Apple and other companies.
Apple does not allow other companies to manufacture apple compatible computers. Some, such as Psystar, have tried but have been taken to court and forced to stop.
It depends what is meant by best. If most financially successful is best then Apple would be the best as they are currently valued at $305.17 billion while Microsoft is valued at $242.57 billion. If best means constantly coming up with innovative ideas that are successfully marketed and then copied by other companies then Apple would be the best.
no, Apple made the Apple ][ long before that and other companies made personal computers around the same time as the Apple ][.
Why not look at other companies that are already on there for ideas?
No, it is in the USA. Like other companies they do outsource some work to other countries.
The term "apple" as a common noun referring to the fruit is not copyrighted, as copyright protects original works of authorship, not individual words or ideas. However, the name "Apple" is trademarked by Apple Inc., which means it is protected in the context of their products and services. This prevents other companies from using the name in a way that could cause confusion in the marketplace. Trademarks and copyrights serve different purposes in intellectual property law.
