    I personally think you have something against Koreans in general. You are filled with hatred against a nationality. You should get help. School is the first step.



    It is NOT the nationality--it is the QUALITY of products the make, and the COPYCAT reputation they have!

    That is HOW Apple products generate loyalty--these people will even risk their lives to possess GREAT and EXCELLENT products--can korean copycats generate SUCH loyalty?

    I think Apple itself is a loyal customer to Samsung.

    Actually, Apple is distancing themselves further away from Samesung and are aligning themselves more toward China and Japan!

    To try to to make your point about cars that lose value fast you also throw Chevy, Dodge, Ford, Mercedes, Chrysler, Saab, Mitsubishi, Mercury, Isuzu, and Suburu under the bus in your provided links. No criticism of them?



    And you conveniently cherry picked bad performing examples in your other links.



    Here are the popular Hyundai models, from your own source



    Sonata – Above Average



    http://www.automobilemag.com/am/2008...ata/index.html



    Elantra – Above Average



    http://www.automobilemag.com/am/2008...tra/index.html



    Kia Optima – above average



    http://www.automobilemag.com/am/2008...ima/index.html



    Kia Sorento – Excellent



    http://www.automobilemag.com/am/2008...nto/index.html

    You forgot this OVER-ALL RANKING: CARS THAT LOSE THEIR VALUES THE FASTEST!



    http://www.forbes.com/2010/10/27/car...sed_slide.html KIA TOPS IT...LOL!



    AS for FOXCONN and Sharp--go look at AppleInsider archive and you will see it!

    So according to that list there are



    (4) American

    (4) Korean

    (2) German

    (1) Japanese

    (1) Swedish



    Even Mercedes is included in that list.

    What is wrong with you, look at all the cars ahead of Kia on the that list. And again, Mercedes is included.

    Kia (korea) TOPS and have the MOST NUMBER OF CARS on the over-all ranking of cars that have resale value GO DOWN the fastest==PROVED MY point BEYOND ANY DOUBT!! As for FOXCONN and Sharp--as I said do your own reserach on the AppleInsider it IS there--unless you are a lousy researcher!

    I don't even know why I am even arguing with someone like you but here are more stats.



    The cars included in that list (according to you the definitive source on resale value) are mentioned as low performers in the article. However, this site tells a different story, again this is your own source regarding resale value.



    Kia Sedona - Average



    http://www.automobilemag.com/am/2008...ona/index.html



    Kia Optima - Above Average



    http://www.automobilemag.com/am/2008...ima/index.html



    Kia Rio - Excellent



    http://www.automobilemag.com/am/2008/kia/rio/index.html



    Hyundai Accent - Excellent

    I don't see any articles about any exclusive supply deals involving Apple and Sharp/Foxconn. Why don't you provide a link and prove your point "Beyond any Doubt"?

    LOL, I just realized those are cost of ownership ratings, not resale.



    With his reading comprehension flubs, I should have known better than blindly follow his lead.



    Worst Overall Car Resale Values, ALG.



    http://www.cars.com/go/advice/Story....ory=loResidual



    No Kias.



    This one from Consumer Reports



    http://editorial.autos.msn.com/artic...umentid=435652



    Again, no Kias in worst performers.



    These are residual values, there are no recent lists on anything going back more than 36 months but it’s safe to extrapolate to anything older, which is why the ALG article is titled “Worst Overall Car Resale Values”.

    Seriously AI?



    Its an article that has NOTHING to do with apple. NOTHING. Apple profits are not reported on the Samsung blog, so WHY THE FORK are you reporting Samsung profits on an APPLE blog just to start a war?



    How about sticking to articles that deal with apple and not some other company who have their own blog?

    1) Samsung is a direct competitor to Apple which makes it relevant. They are also the closest in competing with Apple's revenue, profit, ASP, and profit margin.



    2) I cherish these article here because you can't have a learned conversation on more generalized tech site forums.

    I'm sorry, but when the last few pages of this thread went completely off topic into discussing the reliability and resale value of BMWs vs Kias, I can't help but laugh at this statement.

    It has a lot to do with AI, Samsung seems to be the only company who can successfully compete with the giant. Even after the many attempts to knock Samsung out of game buy sueing them repeatedly without success, thank goodness. I don't think I could live in a world with only one mobile manufacture.
