You guys seem a bit oblivious about what's important to Apple's executives (and likely most of the rest of the employees). They don't care about getting an extra billion dollars. The do what they want to do. And what they want to do is alleviate …

Aren't they forcing people to upgrade without warning or consent? I think their brains have turned completely to mush

Those interested in the benefits of the Beats acquisition might also note that Beats was probably one of the strongest brand identities of any company from the last decade. Look at all the young athletes who will wear colorful Beats headphones to i…

This woman sounds really great. And I see no reason to be cynical about this new direction. Steve was prickly towards stuff like this but execs who are grounded in a different form of reality can understand that business and government have to wor…

I hope they are also offering higher-capacity phones. 16GB models do not deliver the same experience as you have to constantly babysit the storage capacity (particularly if you use iCloud services that sync for you) even if you have a very modest nu…

I think this is an excellent write-up that accurately and clearly describes most of the issues raised. However, please try to remember that the primary reason that Apple works with Foxconn is because there is no other company in the world that can …

Is this the same thing as the WebKit Nightly except it comes through the App Store now?

To me it seems that OSX has been so far removed from this gaming culture and the software teams that make action games probably know nothing about Macs, let alone writing software for them. Offering a super-high-end video card would be quite an exp…

1 - decrypting one phone would demonstrate the possibility of decrypting others - ruining Apple's business. Of course "Bill Gates" supports it. 2 - FBI could have gotten the data but instead they changed the password. There's no chance that w…

I see this article pointing the finger at Tony - but he does have a boss. A bad one who sucks to work for. Google. They are to blame for everything.

Seeing Tim Cook pipe up about this again and again, I suspect that his argument was not for "the most lenient possible" ruling, but more pointedly that Apple not be singled out just because of their success. I am sure he'd be happy if the taxes wer…

I think an important reason for this policy is so that there's less incentive to kill someone for the purpose of grabbing their data

This is an important issue, and one on which Apple has done (IMO) an exemplary job. Tim Cook coming out as homosexual was a watershed event for America. It was, however, one that followed up on decades of leadership in the realm of respecting homo…

Remember they have Dr. Dre

Are these bankers ignoring the iPhone Upgrade Program? It might only be a couple years before billions of people are getting a new iPhone every September.

A very unfortunate illustration of how bonkers and obtrusive the notifications from iTunes are. My "request" to the iTunes Store could not be completed? I do not care. I'm doing work.

Sorkin did move too fast - he based his work on the first biography, which is somewhat crappy compared to the newer one, Becoming Steve Jobs. Between that issue and losing Christian Bale, I think it's too bad he can't just start over now. Seth Rog…

I did a decent amount of research on whether Apple's 256 AACs sound better or worse than 320 mp3s. I'm pretty sure they're better (while also delivering smaller file size, unless I'm crazy, than 256 mp3s). I have never found a song or excerpt wher…

I am shocked that this program is considered a failure. iPads are so educational! I'm not saying that the teachers and administrators did something wrong, but it is hard to see how this initiative wouldn't motivate kids and slowly streamline thing…

Yay! Now Apple can buy Sony.
