    Sheesh. The whole thing was fake news to begin with. Created, in large part, by clueless people like Kuo.

    People should stop paying attention to this nonsense. Or buy the stock for the long haul if there's a dip because of such crap.
    I would think Apple appreciates all the press attention, driving more and more interest from potential buyers. IMHO I would be surprised if Apple itself is not behind some of the controlled "leaks" we read whenever new products are soon to hit the market. 
    That's such bs. Provide some -- any -- evidence.
    Evidence for what I think? LOL! But be that as it may have a read:

    Advice: You should take time to read more on your own before calling BS on someone else's (in this case supported) opinion. If you disagree with my opinion that Apple is behind some of the new product "leaks" we read...
     ...please supply some -- any -- evidence that I'm wrong. 
    1) Ridiculous links. About the same credibility as your assertion


    @anantksundaram I 'm actually very surprised now at just how disingenuous you were with you very first post directed to me in this thread. While feigning ignorance of any Apple efforts to "leak" information in an unofficial manner I find you're the VERY FIRST COMMENTER to acknowledge it happens when the issue came up in an AI thread a few years back.

    Actually, I am sounding a tad skeptical about the guy's story in that post. Asking, if the story is true, why Apple is so successful at it (as he claims) and others are not. And that, if such a thing were true, it's more than about just secrecy or playing media games.

    In any event, even if this guy's story were true, that's from seven years ago. Things are likely very different under Cook (I recall stories to that effect soon after he became a permanent CEO -- I don't have the time to go find those stories, unfortunately!).

    Man, you' like a dog with a bone...
