Alleged 'iPhone 7' leak offers crystal clear look at larger single-lens camera, tweaked antenna lin
Cute but that's not what was being discussed. What was being discussed is the disingenuous nature of some of the posters in that when Apple does something it gets a pass yet let some other manufacturer make an identicle item and it gets excoriated by the same peopleigorsky said:lord amhran said:Rogifan is 100% correct. Were this phone design from any manufacturer OTHER than Apple then everybody here would be howling about the "shitty design" but because it IS from Apple it gets a pass much in the same way the iPhone battery cover got a pass from everybody.
This line of thinking by Apple haters is nonsensical because, if anything, Apple is under way more scrutiny than any other manufacturer. For example Android phones have all used camera mountains on the backs of their phones forever, yet Apple releases a phone with a slight camera protrusion and the internet goes nuts. Antenna lines are acceptable for every phone but it's a sin if Apple uses them. The original iPhone was the first mass-market aluminum smartphone, yet somehow Apple is the one that's copying HTC. Rene over at iMore has posted numerous photos showing that none of the ports at the bottom of Samsung's "flaghsip" Galaxys line up, almost as though a group of amateurs used a 3D printer to manufacture it. I can go on and on with ludicrous examples of the design double standard that exists.
So do us all a favor...take Rogifan with you to an Android site and peddle your Apple conspiracies on a forum where such stupidity will be widely, and blindly, accepted. -
Apple, Maine Department of Education working to swap 'toy' iPads for MacBooks
Not totally surprising. The iPad, while nice, isn't something I'd want to use long-term in a classroom setting. I need a full wordprocessor, spreadsheet among other things and for that my MacBook Air is vastly better for me.

Both 'iPhone 7' and 'iPhone 7 Plus' will come in 256GB capacities - report
None but that wasn't what I was referring to. I was talking about Apple finally realizing that in 2016 their stance on 16gb being "good enough" is asinine what with photos getting larger in size and Apple's inability to get cloud sevices.brucemc said:

Open casting call begins for first original Apple TV series 'Planet of the Apps'
So we get a laughably pathetic propaganda puff piece while Apple low-balls the specs for its MacBook line-up and lets the MacPro languish on the vine? No thanks, I'll pass.

Apple customers to receive $400M iBooks settlement payments on Tuesday
There's nothing "alleged" about it. They were convicted & found guilty of such.
