It would be a great purchase for Apple. Apple TV+, accessories, apps, retrofit millions potential costumers.
Just for you to have an idea. Every day of the World Cup over 220 million people watch. By the end of the World Cup, a total of 5 Billion people would have watch only 30 days of the most played sport in the world and when you have a game, lets say Manchers City VS. Real Madrid, just the 22 players plus the 13 subs, the pay roll is over 1.5 Billion dollars. You van the Champions, The Premier, La Liga, The Euro Cup. It would be a brilliant move for Apple. Forget the car. That is peanuts. Futbol Soccer around the world is a business of hundred of billions of dollars. LETS GO TIM. LETS GO APPLE. Glazer wants a ridiculous number if you pay even 5 Billion and build a new Stadium like the Bernabeu, or Wanda, or Wembley. You would have spent 6 billion. You will have your ROI the moment you sign the contract. I guarantee you it's a dream. Both franchises are a marriage made in heaven. You just have to bring the people that know about futbol. Zidane would be your first coach and keep Ronaldo two more years. Trust me. It's the best news Apple can deliver to its share holders in the aspect of money making machine. ManU's name per se is worth a fortune. It needs to be pamper and bring it back to life. The current coach is killing it.

Tim Cook praises Trump in US tech titan meeting
I oppose to Apple selling lees and worst products. If you need to produce where the labor is more skillful then move it.
Why don't we have in the US the people to pick the watermelons, build the houses and serve tables or be in the kitchens?
Why are there 7 million US people unemployed (or more), because they don't have the skills or want to dirty their hands and want to live like the corrupt billionaires in the government.
Tariffs and Inflation are the most expensive tax you can impose. Go look in the books of economics. You. never know when they start and when they stop.

How to make the most of Apple's Calendar, and when to opt for an alternative
Apple Calendar has the most outdated look and functionality of all the very old looking and bad performing apps Apple has. Just like Contacts, its to difficult to have people create, share and not to loose or miss information. The "best" and only way I have found (and it's pretty 1980's is that everyone shares a master Apple Account and all sign into it).
As for the looks and functions, just take a dive into Moleskine TimePage. Those are looks. Elegant simple, clean but why should Apple create something like that. They have sacrificed style to sales, feeling and sensing the function to report a good quarter.
As per Contacts, same thing.
Long ago System 9 and beginnings of X, there was a very very good app called Now Contact Up To Date. With a great appearance. UI, and the best was that you could share it and it would keep a record as of who and when a contact or an event was modified, altered or created.
Unfortunately Apple didn't have the vision to buy it just like they are not going to buy Moleskine or even license it.
The times that Apple has created apps that really work and they are not bugs after bugs and updates after updates are gone. Steve is dead. Jony is gone. Today is everything about money. Tim is a very good human being but he doesn't have the passion and vision of creating. He creates wealth because that is what the markets wants and demands.
As an Apple investor carrying a big load in my portafolio (my largest position by far. No complains, the returns have been great. I started buying the stock around 25 years ago and held it in the god, bad and better times), a user from the very beginning and having bought thousands of devices (and donating as well hundreds to various institutions) , I can say that I try them, see their flaws as well as their beauty and ease of use. I believe that we, the Apple users and heavily invested in it's eco-system, we are the first ones to scream and demand better and criticize when they do bad or praise them when they do better than anyone.
Lets hope that today announcements of shuffling and get rid of the unneeded, Tim should take a walk around the magnificent SpaceShip, before getting into his office, sit down and take a look at the picture of Steve Jobs and ask him: "so Steve, what are we going to do today that is not only money but something the people didn't know they needed but they want it".
Needles to say, you wouldn't catch me using the other operating systems. Of them al, Apple is still the best. Now lets show them who we are and why we THINK DIFFERENT!

Apple Maps shows users the Gulf of Mexico when searching for 'Gulf of America'
Apple, really you are going to cave to the stup.... idea of changing the name? You will be in breach of international law. Watch where you step, it might be a very costly decision. More than you can imagine and a lot of us, your users and share holders might migrate to the Gulf of Microsoft.

Apple has more than 2.35 billion active devices, up 550 million since 2022
Apple, you have done it again and 18 years as the most admired company.
Not bad at all to prove the analyst and detractors of Apple that YOIU ARE THE ONE AND ONLY AND THE NUMBER ONE!!!
Congratulations!

Apple TV+ abandons Clooney and Pitt's 'Wolfs' sequel
And the Director gets mad because he doesn't know what a good movie is and what is a terrible, boring, nonsense piece of garbage that they all did to pay the next luxury stuff they wanted to buy.... it's not the directors fault, it's Apple fault that they don't have enough professionals reading tons of scripts and having watched thousands of movies to know what is good and what shouldn't even go for consideration.
