Apple is an exceptionally profitable company with the highest margins in the industry. They achieve this by making sure that they profit from everything that they do. So, when Apple launches a completely new product, they do so at a premium price by…

2.2 active devices? Most are single iPhones in the hands of a single user; but a typical Mac user will have three devices: a Mac, an iPhone, and iPad. So, 1 billion or more individual users is a fair, conservative guess. When you have one-in-seven o…

With the exception of specialised cases (eg. Sony & Siemens mentioned above) all these companies must realise that no matter what device you produce, you are actually participating in a war between operating systems. That means Apple versus Goo…

I’m sure that Apple will launch a large screen iMac, probably a 32”. They’re taking their time, no doubt, and they are almost certainly losing sales, as people who want to replace their 27” iMac will prefer to wait (like me). I said that Apple would…
