The only innovation I can remember that ever succeeded out of Redmond, WA is the idea that we pay for a license to use software, rather than owning what's on the medium we install. After that, it was buy, borrow, steal, run the competition out of bu…

I'm late to this conversation, but Apple has the highest customer loyalty of any brand, period. There's no doubt they'll be successful this year and for years to come. As much crap as I give them here, I have a hard time leaving them because not o…

I love how Google just throws things against the wall. No one ever said that Apple is definitely releasing a watch or a game console. I bet they both fail...

Designed by Apple in California - build by children in China. However, aren't they all? Do we really have an option? Can't really hold that against Apple, but advertising where it was designed is almost deceiving. Just about every product sol…

I'm very critical of Apple because my expectations hare high, after having seen what they are capable of for so long. However, I must say that Apple has always done 2 things well: They innovate new technology, and they take existing technologies a…
