I hope most Apple website dont get viewed by PC tech savy users.
Because it is becoming very obvious that most Apple website have little or NO technical knowledge
Wow what a totally dumb generalization!
It so happens I tried the other side recently. I spent most of last weekend trying to solve an issue for a friends with a PC and had the 'privilege' of visiting hundreds of so called PC tech savvy web sites! Jeez what a bunch of clueless rubbish most were. Plus I was constantly warned by the browsers (yes I tried all sorts) that many sites were 'dangerous', something I have never even seen before on a Mac. In the end in case you care, the problem was the virus protection installed had deemed Internet Explorer to be 'dangerous' and stopped it connecting to the internet which I found pretty funny. Not that one single tech savvy PC user or site suggested this option.
In contrast I usually find answers to OS X issues quickly and easily ... from Mac tech savvy users
These are conceptual terms, not chip-level or controller-level distinctions. Flash is, practically, not Read Only and is Random Access.
That it's not DRAM or SRAM or EEPROM (or RDRAM or VRAM, etc, ad. nauseum) isn't significant, just as Flash can be MLC or SLC, NAND, or myriad other implemenation technologies. You might as well argue that ECC RAM isn't RAM because you have to seek to the parity bits to read the primary data.

AI is doing fine in every way that matters. It probably costs them more to store the complaints of the 7-sigma-out crowd that likes to boast about technical arcana than it makes back in ad revenue from them.
Back on topic, this is an excellent use of Apple's cash in case North Korea makes good on its threat of War.

In that case, I look forward to future articles talking about the next generation of high-speed rotating magnetic surface RAM. (Aka hard drives.)
