Who gives a **** what the big institutional investors think? My only concern is who's making the best products, and it sure isn't Samsung or Dell or Sony or HP or any of the others in this sector. And I'm not sure what the "next big thing" could pos…

Where are all these Android tablets? The only place I ever see them is in stores like Best Buy. I was in a board meeting last week with 12 other directors around the table. There were 11 iPads and 2 Mac Airs. No other tablets and no PCs at all. …

Poor Samsung! Even their ads live in Apple's shadows. How sad it must be to work for a company that compares itself to the bar set by others rather than setting the bar.

I say this as a guy who loves Brazil--I've lived there on multiple occasions and maintain an apartment in Rio--but how long will it be before the Barra da Tijuca store is robbed?

Truly one of the worst jobs of headline writing I've seen anywhere. Completely nonsensical. Apparently, innumeracy doesn't disqualify one for a position with AI.

What are the sales figures on the Surface? And how are all those Windows phones doing? I guess the market has spoken. Attack ads against the industry leader, in any field, is usually an act of desperation, and typically precedes the death of the …

If MS gave me a Surface for free I might...might...accept it. And then use it as a paperweight for the paper I no longer use because I have an iPad.

So how much is Walmart paying AppleINsider for this advertisement? And why don't they honestly acknowledge that Walmart pays for the "story?"

I'd suggest that the only way the Microsoft kiosks will get any traffic is if they're located in the restrooms. People have to go to the restroom...

Initial projections called for the sale of 11 copies, but the only sold 9 copies.

Bogus. A rumor started by Google and Samsung to slow the sale of the 5.

Give him a reward for putting those Windows boxes out of their misery...

I must say that this first iteration of the Apple Map app is awful. It's an embarrassment to the company. Using it is counterproductive. And I fear it will be years before Apple can fix this. Let's hope Google produces a useful Map app for the i…

I was once taught that making fun of potential customers is never a good marketing strategy. Apple, just for fun, could turn the tables and depict a scene where exactly one person, looking lonely, waits outside a phone vendor's shop for the …

Another indicator of the decline of western civilization: people who can and will sit in line for days for a phone that will have ample availability in a matter of weeks. I love my 4s but would never have waited in a line of more than 10 minutes …

Reason #137 for dumping AT&T. It's getting pretty clear they don't like customers.
-
Two good friends of mine went into an AT&T store to buy iPhones (and to dump the Android phones they didn't like) and were absolutely badgered by the salesperson to consider the "totally awesome" Android phones. He went so far as to tell them…

Doesn't the image of hapless users begging for help from a "Genius" to do rather simple things run precisely counter to the "it just works" idea? i found the ads just a touch insulting to potential new users.

True. Had I been asked to bet, I would have wagered that RIM would have gone under first. RIM's products are junk (spoken by a former BB user).
