It is interesting that so many people have absolutely no problem with Google, Facebook... to trample on their privacy like a big white elephant but are more cautious when we are talking about physical property. Do the not realize what these compani…

Brings up memories of the 20th anniversary mac, an allinone computer asking for $ 7,499 at its release. Let's think how that worked out for Apple? At the end of its life time (1 full year) it was sold for $ 1,995. If the low end starts at $4,999 how…

Anybody looked any closer to the numbers? $37m taxes at a tax rate of 30% equals to about $110m of profits. Apple is making only $110m on sales of $4.2b. Sorry but I can't believe that.

Unfortunately my use case moves out of Apple's focus more and more. I don't need a MacPro and I don't want a iMac because I don't want to replace the whole thing when either the PC or Screen is dying (the all in ones are not very green products in …

If Apple opens up NFC to the banks I will stop using it immediately. I even forced my bank to issue a debit/charge(?) card without NFC because I don't trust them to master this technology. These passive systems will answer to any sender/receiver tha…

Because of corporation payed tax legislation Apple can funnel all profits from Europe through Ireland --> taxes for Apple's European business have be collected in Ireland. And Ireland has aggreed to penalize its own companies by demanding 12,5% t…

I think DED's argument: Apple discontiues this or that product only because it doesn't sell, simplifies the whole picture too much! With the MacPro and Mac mini I see it more like the chicken and egg problem: Does Apple not update these computers b…

When looking at the yearly sales Apple performed even worse than the rest of the PC market. When cherry picking the IDC data for Q4/2016 Apple sold less Macs than 2015 although there was the pent up demand for the MBP. I think that Apple starts to …

I can't understand that Apple hasn't included a "Decline and don't answer" button from the start. The create a new calender and move the invitation solution works for me but that is far from Apple's "It just works".
