But is the car even going to be sold to the public or is it going to be for an Apple car service? Many may not want to buy a car without a steering wheel, but many may be happy to rely on a service car that arrives when they need it and gets them to…

I wonder how many of Samsung’s shipped tablets end up as giveaways?

Why would Appke introduce another phone of iPhone 8 dimensions, it doesn’t make sense. If there is an SE2 then it will be iPhone 5 sized, but with edge to edge display and will look gorgeous.

Ahhh, the Red Delicious apple. Not very red and not very delicious. In saying that, my favourite the Granny Smith, even my dog won't eat.

Until someone goes to jail for things like this then it's all just an entry on a balance-sheet and the cost of doing business. Dems would have voted against it for not going far enough, Reps are always on the side of big business, the Dems MARGINAL…

How dare France try to level the playing field. Tax-dodging multinationals have an unfair advantage over small local companies who can’t base their operations in tax havens.

It's not difficult to point to better retention rates, when you predecessor was John Browlett. Under Browlett the joy of working for Apple became a nightmare. It was he that suggested (as a way of saving money) that Genius members should try and j…

The MBA is the way to go. The Touch Bar is just an almost pointless device that is just another thing that can go wrong. The longer battery life is more important than the better video chip and brighter display.

I have only one good thing to say about the one-port MacBook. At least the battery was glued to the bottom case instead of the keyboard housing.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the iMac G4. The angle-poise display that seems to float in the air is an ergonomic dream, while the base with the CD drive that seems to poke out its tongue is both cute and beautiful. As an aside, I still have …

I really like dashboard and use it daily :-(

Having replaced several MBP KBs and used compressed air to sort out sticking keys on many others I can say that I'm very happy with the 3rd-gen on my retina MacBook Air. I eat toast over it and so far have had zero issues in the 5 months I've had i…

Speaking as an ex-genius I can say that under Angela I always got the feeling that she resented having support staff dirtying her gorgeous retail environment. Training time disappeared. The highly trained Geniuses got annoyed at spending hours bei…

The biggest issue with fast turn-a-round is the crappy post-repair diagnostics and trackpad calibration. Hair-pulling frustration levels when something that should take 15 minutes, could take hours or even days to complete.

A bunch of hypocritical lying Republicans, pretending to care about the constitution. I assume that their main issue is they haven't received any lobbying money from Apple

Foxconn has a long and illustrious history of announcing local investments, receiving up front money from excited and often stupid local politicians and then walking away with the money. It's another form of revenue stream for them. Brazil Vietnam…
