  • Apple TV won't get Amazon Prime Video until Apple agrees to 'acceptable business terms'

    I've got an Amazon Prime app on my iPad. What's the diff? 

    I think Amazon sees everyone and everything as competition.

  • Was Mike Daisey right about Apple being doomed?

    Some here are saying Daisey should just be ignored. That's the wrong approach in dealing with a con artist.

    DED is right to carefully research and expose Daisey for what he is. The more everybody knows about a con artist, the better able we are to protect ourselves.

  • Samsung to produce thinner 10nm chips this year [u]

    Samsung: true technology powerhouse. Apple: true marketing powerhouse.
    Samsung spends 4X what Apple does on marketing.

    It kills me how Apple can be so greedy!! Really it costs NO DIFFERENCE to work on a Aluminum watch Stainless or pure Gold...Why should the case material determine the repair costs are??? Because they can and people are stupid enough to pay them!!!!
    "...stupid..."? It's interesting to me that so many people think they are smart enough to decide how others should spend their money. (Sorry to be so harsh.)

  • Apple investor fears about China & iPhone 6s are 'overblown,' FBR says

    Friken pathetic that it takes an analyst to call out those supply check bullshit instead of the Apple CEO who is getting paid $100,000,000 a year.

    Tim Cook is great at operations but he's a total loser at controlling the company message.
    He allows worthless media and analysist to crap on the company name and he does NOTHING.
    Stock has lost over $30 the last few months. The stock is down almost $200,000,000,000 and yet Cook says nothing.


    Mr. Cook is actively moving to protect the share price by soaking up as much stock as he can. Let the institutions sell all they want. The lower the price goes, the more stock that can be bought back. I'm long, so I hope the stock goes to $75 and Luca retires 25% of the float. I'm expecting Apple to issue more bonds any day now. The next President will put forth a "tax holiday" and the overseas cash will be put to work. Patience, Mr/Ms Sog35. In 2-3 years 30% of the float will be retired. The remaining shares will be earning $15 each and a P/E of 12 will fetch a price of $180. Time is on our side, unless you're into options or on margin. Is that your deal? (Don't do that with AAPL.)
