It would be a great purchase for Apple. Apple TV+, accessories, apps, retrofit millions potential costumers.
Just for you to have an idea. Every day of the World Cup over 220 million people watch. By the end of the World Cup, a total of 5 Billion people would have watch only 30 days of the most played sport in the world and when you have a game, lets say Manchers City VS. Real Madrid, just the 22 players plus the 13 subs, the pay roll is over 1.5 Billion dollars. You van the Champions, The Premier, La Liga, The Euro Cup. It would be a brilliant move for Apple. Forget the car. That is peanuts. Futbol Soccer around the world is a business of hundred of billions of dollars. LETS GO TIM. LETS GO APPLE. Glazer wants a ridiculous number if you pay even 5 Billion and build a new Stadium like the Bernabeu, or Wanda, or Wembley. You would have spent 6 billion. You will have your ROI the moment you sign the contract. I guarantee you it's a dream. Both franchises are a marriage made in heaven. You just have to bring the people that know about futbol. Zidane would be your first coach and keep Ronaldo two more years. Trust me. It's the best news Apple can deliver to its share holders in the aspect of money making machine. ManU's name per se is worth a fortune. It needs to be pamper and bring it back to life. The current coach is killing it.

iPad mini 7 vs iPad mini 6 compared -- Apple Intelligence on the smallest tablet
Apple should be ashamed for launching a product with the only thing new is the name.
Really they couldn't do a real update with a A18 chip. With magsafe charge. With face recognition.
The past two years Apple has been in a hurry to do things from bad to worse.

Apple TV+ abandons Clooney and Pitt's 'Wolfs' sequel
And the Director gets mad because he doesn't know what a good movie is and what is a terrible, boring, nonsense piece of garbage that they all did to pay the next luxury stuff they wanted to buy.... it's not the directors fault, it's Apple fault that they don't have enough professionals reading tons of scripts and having watched thousands of movies to know what is good and what shouldn't even go for consideration.

iPhone sales propel Apple's earnings beyond Wall Street expectations
Never doubt Apple. There will always be ONE MORE THING.
Thank you Apple. You perform and don't need to lay off.

US DOJ attacks nearly every aspect of Apple's business in massive antitrust suit
One of the most if not not the most ilegal antitrust lawsuits I have ever heard.
-So why didn't Apple sued Microsoft to have a an Apple OS in all the Windows running machines?
+Because Apple could do basically the same in its OS without the need of emulators and Apple has not cried like all this other ones that ganged against Apple.
-So why all the other ones have always cried when Apple got rid of floppies, disk readers, converted te SIM card to a nano and even to a no need, cried so much when Apple decided to get rid of Flash?
+Because Apple has been light years ahead of all the other OS systems and Apple is an ECOSYSTEM. The other ones just make either hardware or software. MS just started whit's Surface, what 10 years ago. Wow, late to the party.
-So why Apple can build its own 5 billion Space ship, invest and decided after 10 year and 10 billion that no need to make a car or abandoned the making of televisions years ago?
+Because they spend their own money for R&D and they don't stretch their hand like INTEL for 8.5 billion dollars.
+Because Apple created its own App Store 25 years ago and Amazon and Google and the other losers they woke up late and now they want also cake.
+Because Apple might not be the the first but when they do something they do it better tan anyone.
+BECAUSE APPLE DIDN'T MAKE SOMETHING UGLY AND USLESS LIKE ZUNE!!!+BECAUSE APPLE DOESN'T SPEND 19 BILLION ON BUYING WA AND FB STILL CANNOT FIND THE FORMULA TO MONETIZE
+BECAUSE APPLE HAS 167,000 EMPLOYEES. SAME NUMBER THAT THE OTHER TECH COMPANIES HAVE FIRED SINCE COVID AND APPLE HAS NOT FIRED AND KEEPS UP OPENING STORES AND SINCE 2017 HAS BOUGHT 20 AI COMPANIES VS MS 10.
+BECAUSE APPLE HAD TWO GREAT STEVES AND ALL THE OTHER ONES TOGETHER DON'T MAKE 1% OF EACH ONE OF THE ONES HAD AND MANY OTHER GREAT NAMES AND CREATIVE PEOPLE.
Because Apple via Steve Jobs saw in PIXAR what not even George Lucas could see.
Because Apple revolutionized the entire tech world with computers, OS's, iPods, iPads, iPhones, iMacs, Apple Vision Pro, Apple Watch and Apple and Steve Jobs have To this date, has 1,158 patents credited in total, of which 377 are utility-based and 781 are design patents. 145 among these were awarded after his demise in 2011.
Shame on the Biden administration and DOJ Department. This year I'm not voting. He had my vote all the way but this is an offense to inlegence. The DOJ should better chase the crooks of the SCOTUS and many other politicians.

Tim Cook praises Trump in US tech titan meeting
I oppose to Apple selling lees and worst products. If you need to produce where the labor is more skillful then move it.
Why don't we have in the US the people to pick the watermelons, build the houses and serve tables or be in the kitchens?
Why are there 7 million US people unemployed (or more), because they don't have the skills or want to dirty their hands and want to live like the corrupt billionaires in the government.
Tariffs and Inflation are the most expensive tax you can impose. Go look in the books of economics. You. never know when they start and when they stop.

Watch a video & download Apple's presentation to get your parents to buy you a Mac [U]
If this video was done by Apple creative or marketing people, they should all be fired.
Lack of humor. Not to the point. Over the top in acting.
This is the new Apple Inc. without Steve Jobs. 😩🤮 -
How to make the most of Apple's Calendar, and when to opt for an alternative
Apple Calendar has the most outdated look and functionality of all the very old looking and bad performing apps Apple has. Just like Contacts, its to difficult to have people create, share and not to loose or miss information. The "best" and only way I have found (and it's pretty 1980's is that everyone shares a master Apple Account and all sign into it).
As for the looks and functions, just take a dive into Moleskine TimePage. Those are looks. Elegant simple, clean but why should Apple create something like that. They have sacrificed style to sales, feeling and sensing the function to report a good quarter.
As per Contacts, same thing.
Long ago System 9 and beginnings of X, there was a very very good app called Now Contact Up To Date. With a great appearance. UI, and the best was that you could share it and it would keep a record as of who and when a contact or an event was modified, altered or created.
Unfortunately Apple didn't have the vision to buy it just like they are not going to buy Moleskine or even license it.
The times that Apple has created apps that really work and they are not bugs after bugs and updates after updates are gone. Steve is dead. Jony is gone. Today is everything about money. Tim is a very good human being but he doesn't have the passion and vision of creating. He creates wealth because that is what the markets wants and demands.
As an Apple investor carrying a big load in my portafolio (my largest position by far. No complains, the returns have been great. I started buying the stock around 25 years ago and held it in the god, bad and better times), a user from the very beginning and having bought thousands of devices (and donating as well hundreds to various institutions) , I can say that I try them, see their flaws as well as their beauty and ease of use. I believe that we, the Apple users and heavily invested in it's eco-system, we are the first ones to scream and demand better and criticize when they do bad or praise them when they do better than anyone.
Lets hope that today announcements of shuffling and get rid of the unneeded, Tim should take a walk around the magnificent SpaceShip, before getting into his office, sit down and take a look at the picture of Steve Jobs and ask him: "so Steve, what are we going to do today that is not only money but something the people didn't know they needed but they want it".
Needles to say, you wouldn't catch me using the other operating systems. Of them al, Apple is still the best. Now lets show them who we are and why we THINK DIFFERENT!

Tim Cook praises Trump in US tech titan meeting
Never thought he would disrespect Steve's great creation of what was once a great company with the genius of its founders. Your comment not only killed the loyalty of Apple workers but the consumers.
I think it's time for Tim to say goodbye. He did good. But way too many mistakes that will eventually become the dimise of a company that was a legend...not anymore.
Maybe he was promised a post in Trumps cabinet.
