  • Apple's first iPhone was also the first to realize the potential of the smartphone

    I find Mike Lazardis' comment very revealing. If you can't figure out how Steve "squeezed a Mac" into a phone when everything is right there in front of you, how do you expect to understand what it is capable of and where the future is headed?

  • Apple retracts two wrong specs on Titanium Apple Watch weight

    Actually, is there a typo in this article? It lists two weights for the titanium model, both 44mm. It would be more helpful to place the correct info into a chart for comparison.

  • Apple discontinues Thunderbolt Display, no replacement announced

    @ Stimpy... As a former employee, there were times that there were gaps in their product line. The reality is that because they manage their pipeline to save money, this happens. If you were unfortunate in your timing, I would recommend other products. Some others were budget conscious, and I also recommended alternatives. Finally, sometimes (not often), other companies had better product or certain features that warranted an honest outside recommendation. When the Thunderbolt came out, the elegance (single Thunderbolt cable) and quality (color gamut & contrast) were tops. However, some people needed anti-glare. Compared to other products of equal or better quality, the Thunderbolt display was a good value for a long time.

    Their head is so far up their *ss they use typical Apple "how to say no in a positive" "there are many great displays out there." Can you imagine going to buy a 3K Mac Pro at a retail store and they will be programmed not to tell you which monitor to buy unless its on the Apple Store website. I remember buying a new Mac when the Studio Display were discontinued and this was before the more aggressive employee programming.  They actually told me to go buy a Dell monitor. Great I'm at Apple buying a mac and they are advising me to go buy a Dell monitor because the poor employees were left with nothing to sell and a bag of crap with cranky people like me.
