  • Tim Cook references Spanish Flu, Lincoln in Ohio State commencement speech

    Tim is a worthy successor to SJ.  He’s a remarkable, impressive human being.

  • Apple asks Foxconn to move iPad, MacBook production from China to Vietnam

    This is an immensely complicated decision.  Take a moment to consider then prioritize just 10 factors in the decision.  Always, human rights are in conflict with lowest cost of labor.  Moving all production to the US, where reliable folks wouldn’t even apply for a job for less than 20/hour + benefits, would double the cost of a respective product, pricing that product out of competitive contention in the marketplace.  A dead company has no ability to influence human rights and democracy!

    Why do so many posts here fail to consider such a simple business concept?  Apple understands the big picture and is leading many industries in renewable and recyclable business practices.  If you take a long look, from 1800 to present, you’ll see that business practices are evolving in a more humane and ecologically intelligent direction.  Some countries are way ahead of others, but that’s to be expected.  It’s happening.  Unless we have an economic collapse or a natural disaster effecting the globe, progress will continue.

  • Cook promises Apple will 'learn' and 'take action' in memo to workers

    This is the kick in the ass Apple and Tim needed.  Nice reality check.  No company on earth has more good brains and more treasure to invest.  Now it’s time to get down to bringing new products and services to market.

    As an aside, if you vote conservative, you just got a lesson.  Next time we need money to avert depression (remember 2009?), the Chinese are gonna say stick it to US bonds.  Bridge burned.
  • Phil Schiller again defends Touch Bar MacBook Pro's 16GB RAM limitation

    Thin elegance and power for the MacBook.  Complete Utility and a weird, heavy duty no apologies, plug in anything 64GB RAM, code crushing Monster Truck for the MacBook Pro.  I truly believe Jony has gone too far.
  • Trump says SoftBank to invest $50B in US, hopes to create 50,000 jobs

    Yeah, yeah... where can I apply for that 100K/Year job doing nothing, guaranteed for 10 years.  That'll work for me.
