Samsung has rose to the top on the shoulders of the famous. They've spent billions on marketing over the years. What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Apple needs to acquire 4 large companies a year. The interest on their cash holdings a…

Am I the only one that got a strange feeling seeing the pictures of Cook with Dre and Iovine? They come from different worlds. They clash, yet they are so similar in so many ways. Apple has lacked the cool factor for years. I remember the cool iPa…

Trying to buy a year's sub and when I press "manage account," I get sent to iTunes. C'mon Apple.

I'd like to see Iovine up there 80% of the time. The image of a Apple could be improved, if you will, with the quirky Iovine presenting Apple's products going forward. I cringe every time I see the dorky Cook or Schiller with his Mom jeans and big g…

Samsung has offered numerous promotions to sell their phone, even going as far as selling the S5 at buy-one get-one-free. Apple can't diminish their brand with drastic promotions. However, they can with Beats. I'd like to see Apple include free Beat…

Apple has never and will never succeed at headphones and speakers. Beats has succeeded and will continue to dominate. It's a much-needed acquisition. I'm willing to bet that Beats sells 10x as many headphones to the 18-25 demographic as Bose does, …

Coming this Christmas: Buy an iphone6, get a free pair of Beats earbuds or a pair of wired Beats headphones for $75 or a wireless pair for $150. 18-30 year olds predominately buy Beats. It's a massive market, especially with wireless now coming i…

Cook is supposedly this supply-chain genius, yet year after year it seems like we read about demand outstripping supply. The new Mac won't reach balance within 6 months of release. How is this possible? Is it deliberate? If it again happens this fal…

80 million iPhones in 4 months? What is Cook crazy? They sold 53 million this past Christmas quarter. So last year, if they released the 5s in August, they would have sold 70 million. This year, they are releasing 2 new sizes, are expanding into Chi…

The last paragraph sums it up. The upgrade cycle on iPads is so much longer than that of an iPhone. Where iPhones will be replaced every 1.5 years, iPads, especially with the power they pack today, can be used for 3-5 years. I have an iPad Air128g…
