I've never been taken by Apple producing its own television-the parameter such as sizes would swamp the Apple Store. Better to have some gizmo that either works with sets as they now sit, or a gizmo and some innards TV producers pay Apple to add to …

Finance, terms and their laws stymie me. Can someone answer this. Is stock buy back different from buying through the open market? Are companies not allowed to buy back shares of their own company on the open market. I suspect this is the case, or…

There's a change in the winds on Apple reporting and in Apple stock of late and I firmly believe much of this has to do with the strong efforts of Mr Dilger. His analyses are being quoted on many sites, even the negative sites are taking note, and h…
