Who else thinks this a poor business decision on Apple's part? I would rather see them align with Microsoft (Azure) than Amazon (AWS). I see Microsoft as less of a competitor than Amazon (in many spaces). And, what are all those Apple owned server f…

Apple just laid off 200 Titan project employees. Titan is dead.

PTSD said: I want a computer that will last me ten years. My Mac Minis tend to last maybe three or four. I think if you're expecting more than 5 years of intensive work from ANY computer, you're asking for a l lot.

Standard Apple. Apple knows very well that this is going on. They only publicly acknowledge it when it's "outed" and put on the facade of "moral outrage." Then, they get the manufacturing partner to stop the practice claiming "Apple did 'The right…
