"New sense of “AppleCare” ... Bingo ... good one!

Given the beating that they have taken in the past month, I would have thought that this is largely priced in now, and then some. This is the statement from the horses mouth that confirms what we've been hearing rumors of. Apple has proven to be ver…

Rarely mentioned ... (OK, never mentioned), is that IBM got quite a bit above 1 trillion way back when (the 70's), when you adjust for inflation. But sure, a Trillion is a huge milestone, and I'm not unhappy that Apple was the one to make it. They…

I'll second Retrogustos request for cycling data. Bike commuting has become a big thing here in Seattle with more jumping on board all the time to avoid the horrible traffic bottlenecks (and get some cardio at the same time ...). I'd like the abil…

I've been waiting for them to get into content creation for a while. Not unlike them to take a cautious approach to something like this but the time is right. After trying to craft a deal with existing networks for years and getting nowhere, the wri…

The New Yorker designer/illustrators have been doing some interesting things with occasionally animated cover designs, and their writing is consistently top notch. This type of magazine publication is a great fit with Apple. Would love to see what m…

The value of the personal data collected is what drives the price of Google, Facebook and their ilk. I prefer to not make it quite so easy for them to profile me, although I end up leaving my fingerprints all over the web despite of my efforts. Why …

May or may not relate to this Amazon, Buffet, JP initiative, but one thing I would love to see coming is some kind of way to cost compare hospital health services. I recall an article a while back that shone a spotlight on the difference in joint re…

Hoping they announce the revised iMacs at WWDC and offer for sale soon after. My legacy Cheese Grater Pro (c. 2009), is showing some graphics card oddness and needs to be put out to pasture, soonly!

Wait, I thought stock price was about the future (even though it beat current expectations)? And yet, it is down, even though Apple is predicting a record-breaking quarter? Of course. This might be people who were betting on a bigger su…

Personally, my own use of Apple Pay has certainly spiked. Even my local grocery store, a local chain of just 5 or 6 locations, now takes it at checkout. Always a weirdly simple pleasure.

Wait - Apple reported $53 billion and change profit, and this 'study' claims that they owe $65 billion in US taxes? That's whack. If a company pays taxes on earnings/sales made in a foreign country, (and also pays the taxes on domestic earnings/sal…
