Got one. 2 mins. Big line, ok interest rate.

Obviously Apple is not going to help American manufacturing workers and manufacturing engineers without a push. Glad that Trump is doing that. Of the entire product line the Pro may be the best model to take a bit of a margin hit on to do that. …

Or manufacture it in Taiwan or Singapore or even Korea. There are options with infrastructure outside of China.

I wholeheartedly disagree. Cook is a good beancounter abd operations man. And caretaker while Jobs was sick. But he’s an awful CEO. He’s convinced every level it’s alright to have mediocre products with half complete features and bugs galore. Stev…

Coconut Point in Estero, FL had a few in stock. Silvers not Slate Gray. Even had a maxed out 1 TB version (or was it 2tb, in forget) but I didn't bite

Wish the stock market agreed with them. It's not a spaceship. It's a bubble where they can all delude themselves that Apple is not losing it's relevancy as the iPhone saturates out and no new Apple product comes close to supplementing it.

It's also a pretty easy fix. And a vulnerability that I'm surprised got introduced in the first place. They inserted a way to for someone to write code into a file by using a logging variable right into the main loop of the code rather than throu…

Caveat: Order today. Credit card charged today. (Maybe) shipped 10 months from now. And good luck on the refund if they go out of business before then. Otherwise, I kind of like it. Not DOA for me. Mag stripe functionality makes it useful. …

Well, Google is setting pretty clear expectations on the phone price by announcing it already. Might be hard to charge more unless you move off of the reference design much. Obviously there will be more expensive Android phones. S6's are not goi…

I guess we have to assume that $100 is the off contract price? I don't think I saw it stated explicitly. What kind of margin are you going to get on a $100 phone? $20 a unit would be aggressive. Maybe $10 is more likely. Maybe $5 if you include…

Guess I'm an outlier again. I never used Pandora. Use and like iTunes Radio. Did not go back to Pandora. In the 8%. That makes me special. Or their 800 sample size is too small to be useful.

So does this mean we have to buy it again if we want it for iOS7? That's a first for any app I've ever had.

Also remember that all Cricket said was that they were going to miss their commitment. Who knows how realistic that commitment was in the first place? Does Apple stock have to take a hit because Cricket can't forecast sales volumes before the si…

Frankly, they were overpriced to begin with. This is just a step to returning them to normal Apple pricing. The price premiums they put in when they first released retina were pretty high.

When will Zuckerberg realize that most of my family and friends have very different tastes than I do? My brother's CD collection has nothing I want in it. My college friends have gone on to like a lot of crazy stuff. My wife's friends have noth…

What the hell was he wearing? Some cross between a rain slicker and a bad bowling shirt? If I were the CEO of Apple I'd insist I'd have to power to not suffer such indignities.

Your headline paints this story as some sort of positive for Apple. It's a scathing review of what Apple does to increase profits. While the facts are portrayed more correctly in your full article, I don't see why you try to foist this off as a po…

At first I thought it was just a bootstrap company that would of course have issues with the cash to build out infrastructure. Looking at the site I see VC's all over the team page. Come on VC's, cough up the cash to get some servers.
