  • Qualcomm responds to Apple lawsuit, says iPhone maker behind 'regulatory attacks'

    THIS is their response? 

    Qualcomm is in deep doodoo. 

    Apple gave factual data on where Qualcomm went wrong-withholding a specific amount of money owed-out of spite. 

    Qualcomm then spins a web to connect all their woes to Apple. 

    When that hat is the best they can do, you already know who stands where. 

    Its going to to end poorly for Qualcomm. 
    Agreed but why would Apple have agreed to the terms in the first place?  Why is this only surfacing now, 6 years later?  There's always more to these things than might first appear.  Not quite sure how anyone can reach any conclusions with the limited amount of information available three days into this going public.

  • Comparison: Which Apple MacBook is right for you?

    This is by far Apple's most convoluted and confusing Mac lineup since I can remember.  What the heck is going on at Apple to be making so many mistakes?

  • No, Apple did not switch to USB-C on its new MacBook Pros to profit from dongle & adapter sales

    Apple products are awesome, but usually carry premium prices. Apple should include required dongle-adapters at no extra charge with new MacBook Pro.
    I shake my head at the "if you can afford a $2K laptop you can afford an adapter".  Seriously? What kind of good customer experience is that? Especially when the newest iPhones ship with USB-A. But if we're going to use that argument then Apple didn't need to ship the iPhone 7 with a headphone adapter because if you can afford to spend $700 on a phone you can afford a $9 adapter. Maybe so but it comes across as Apple nickle and diming people caring more about the bottom line than a good customer experience. 
    There are so many different adapters/interfaces that can be plugged into those Thunderbolt 3 holes that if Apple asks you "OK, bundle which ones?" you cannot even reply to that...
    Nonsense, a few of the more common ones like usb2/3 and hdmi would have been a good compromise.
