No matter how great many of the Ive era designs have been.... I am looking forward to see what the next generation of designers will do beyond the strict minimalist Ive aesthetic.  

Did any of you read the part about the economic class disruption these buses are assisting? Public bus stops, the kind that use public funded tax dollars are being used by private bus companies and possibly tech companies to shuttle their employees. Why must taxpayers subsidize companies like Apple and Google. I live in NYC and hyper gentrification has pretty much ruined the city I love. Google, Facebook and other tech companies are invading my residential neighborhood and lobbying city hall to change zoning laws which will allow for glass and steel offices building in our low rise, historic neighborhood. Community grass roots efforts are working to prevent this from happening but money usually wins in our capitalist society. Employees of Facebook are now living in newly built one bedroom apartments which sell for $1.5 million. A Catholic school, rectory and circa 1900 church were all demolished to make way for this condo. Meanwhile prices have soared as landlords know they can charge any price to get chain stores (something unheard of in NY until recent years) in commercial spaces, rent stabilized long term residents are either being bought out of their leases, or illegally forced out by gas and heating shut offs which extends for months. If you do not live in a major city you might not be experiencing this dramatic attack on how you live but I know that citizens of cities like San Francisco has suffered dearly from the tech boom. I pity the city which Amazon decides to gut. 

Finally, I do not condone shooting buses, however someone needs to disrupt the disruptors and bringing the fight more public is the first step. 

Any US leader that sucks up to Putin won't get my vote. 

Ladies and gentlemen the new heaviest ever and most likely to need repair iPad Pro 2020!

Can't wait for Apple Umbrella, beautiful but avoid water.

Does anyone that has the new MacBook like it? Maybe Apple spent too much effort on that "nobody asked for it" led strip and forgot about what a pro needs from a pro machine.

“Update not found” ... the quality of service has dropped at Apple...

Yeah, Apple is such a cluster-fuck. Why are you still on the platform by the way? Or are you?

Typical nasty response which is not necessary since they were not trash talking you, just a dumb company.

This is great news, looks like the Democrats will continue to turn Texan into a Blue state. Great for America.

It's a feel-good move by Apple to save money when building new products. It if ever "closed loop" the company will be dying out because if you have enough coming in to support what you are selling then you are not selling enough product and/or people are buying another brands product.

Companies can still buy "used" aluminum from cities and other companies who collect minerals without having to buy from mines. Mining is not only hazardous to the human mining but is also devastating to nearby ecologies.

A merger just like the one Jesus and Santa Claus made.
