This gave me a bit of a shock, Apple haven't ever named other PC manufacturers in marketing as far as I can remember.
Now they mention all of them on the front page of the website.
I like the tougher new Apple.

They are just quoting their fanboi, Walt Mossberg, so in theory, the "aggression" is coming from old Walt.

Right, it's just a quote. But Apple has been directly aggressive in the past, toward Dell for example. When SJ was returning during the dark age, Michael Dell said if he were in charge of Apple he would sell the company and return the cash proceeds to shareholders. And to that SJ responded, "To Hell With Dell."

He did? On what occasion was this? I'd like to read/see the whole thing…

It was most likely from a Macworld keynote - perhaps MWSF 98.
