I still think that when the story of this era of Apple finally comes out, the dirty little truth will be that Steve Jobs' health went seriously south earlier than anyone even hinted at, and from about early 2009 on, the principal dynamic at the top …

And hopefully this is the "next big thing" from Apple -- finally taking the enterprise seriously. I trust it will deploy soon in other markets besides the US.

It honestly bothers me that it didn't reach 50 percent in 48 hours. This bug was unbelievably bad.

What about the MITM exploit? This affects virtually every aspect of the operating system, including Software Update. I have to say, I'm seriously considering downloading the combo updater over a friend's Windows machine and then transferring it to…

Carl Icahn sees nothing except money. If making it means destroying companies, he does it with abandon. The best example is TWA. He made around $470 million in personal profit . . . . and left TWA with $540 million in additional debt. There is n…

Reason to vote against; Carl Icahn is living and walking proof of how legal bias in favor of the shareholders and against management, employees, customers and all other stakeholders harms the US economy. Reason to vote for; if Apple keeps up its M…

I'd hope that we'd get back to having four sustainable national companies. Industrialized economies with just three mobile operators almost invariably have huge rates and horrible service. You need the competition. T-Mobile/Sprint is slightly les…

Talk about a polar opposite to Browett. No louder way of admitting their previous strategy was wrong.

The two features I regard as by far the most important are the multiband LTE support (which ought to be standard on every 4G phone) and the dual-tube flash (which ought to be standard on every electronic flash from every camera manufacturer). The L…

Actually, it does not start with i or end with Pad. It starts with quad, and ends with core. Basically, new improvements to computers are far more incremental than they were and a lot less consequential to end-users.

What formosa said. I don't buy that the 32-64 bit distinction is important for smartphones. I do buy that Apple is in a unique position to have the whole lot work truly well in the long term -- decades forward -- on the same 64-bit system, and I b…

I'm curious, is there an option to slightly bold up the font in 7? That's the big downside to it, the text really is spindly. It makes me think they weren't nearly scientific enough with legibility. If you want to see something that really is well t…

This thread is unbelievable. It amazes me how many people rationalize having big corporations extract ever more ridiculous profit margins out of them. Apple's gross margin is, what, 40 percent? It isn't that long ago that margins less than half that…

As long as the extra time means extra attention to quality control. I want it to be like 10.2 or 10.3, work out of the box without lots of stupid glitches. A launch like 10.5, 10.7 or even 10.8 would be very unfortunate.

I think some questions need to be asked about what was going on at Apple during the last year or two of Steve Jobs's life. Certainly not software development, as the long wait for Aperture 4 and iWork 2011, er, 2012, er, 2013 demonstrates. And b…

Is there anything else you can say to the new phone besides "OK, Google Now" in order to wake it up? I basically really like the packaging of this new phone, but I'm simply not up for this kind of dorky marketing in public. Or private. Also, I ha…

@ andysol, Good to know. I wish they'd put a more network-oriented drive in there, however.
-
So does this mean I can get an Airport Extreme, and then insert a decent network hard drive rather than the mismatched Barracuda that Apple is shipping with the Time Capsule? A Western Digital Red would be perfect for this device — you want the coo…

Well, I can't speak for everyone else, but I have the grandfathered unlimited data with a Galaxy S3. And I have to say, I really don't want to give it up. Not with the way cell phone use seems to be evolving. And I don't expect Verizon to change …

This would be a good opportunity to require portability of devices, even of non-GSM carriers. I speak of Verizon and Sprint's failure to open their platforms to other devices. There's a huge potential for churn between CDMA carriers, primarily Ver…
