While I liked the upside surprise that Apple reported with earnings, for me, the best thing about listening to the CC was the confidence that I heard in Tim Cook. IMO, it was his best performance as Apple CEO to date. Always trying to read between t…

Three questions which I have- 1)Did Samsung actually lie in any of the trials related to indemnification 2)If the answer to question 1 is yes, how does that affect Samsung in the present trial 3)Does the indemnification affect anything else re…

Haven't been paying close attention to the boards lately but saw the link today on the bottom of solipsisms signature. I always paid attention to JRs posts. He will be missed.

Reading some of the posts that were here earlier, it would seem the distinction between marketing and selling is an internal one. I think everyone has a different set point about when marketing becomes selling and vice versa, or if they are exactly …

First of all, it would be interesting to see what raw numbers they are working with. Second of all, wouldn't it have been better to see what Apple actually sold in terms of phones this afternoon than just putting up a guess this morning? I guess the…

If I am remembering correctly, Apple was in talks for their tech prior to the deal with MSFT and they said Apple wanted to much control. Maybe, they were pushed for a deal by the change at MSFT.

You can't really expect Ballmer to look at things rationally and admit the errors that were made under his administration. If he does that, then the whole time he ran MSFT he would have to see himself and his time there as a massive failure. As the …

The sales figures that get reported tomorrow, while important, aren't the only things that are important. What would have been interesting to know is the backlog of orders that Apple had the past few years after the launch weekend. There have never …

Just some quick hits. Didn't tune in for the first part of the presentation but I liked most of what I saw. Some things will take getting used to but most of what I saw looked great, especially the way the icons sit over the home screen. Wil…

It would seem to me that Apple has more of a perception problem. Partly because of the share price, people equate that with how well Apple is doing and haven't looked to see that the past 2 quarters were the best revenue producing quarters in its …

If he wants to come back, can get his mind back into it and is thought to be the right guy for the job, then hire him. Maybe he doesn't get to be the big cheese but maybe a consultant. Don't know how much of the JC Penny fiasco was his own f…

Both Samsung and Apple are doing well in the phone business. Samsung and Apple are not going away in the phone business anytime soon. Both companies have had a successful strategy when it comes to their "connected" business. With that being …

Sounds very reasonable to me on the big acquisition front. On the small company front, with what Cook says they are doing, I am wondering how long the lockup period for key employees to stay on board? I also hope they discuss with the …

I think the expectation, rightly or wrongly, for Apple was 50 million phones for the quarter. When they didn't hit that number, for some people, it didn't matter what else Apple reported, especially since so much of Apple's revenues are tied to th…
