  • Bill Gates equates Steve Jobs' talent to 'casting spells'

    I think Elon Musk has similar capabilities (compared to Mr Jobs) motivating people to work for him and judging whats good an whats not.

  • Apple CEO Tim Cook rips into 'absurd' Wall Street Journal report on Jony Ive's departure

    Well that's pretty much it. Now Even The Esteemed "Wall Street Journal" is into reporting Fake News. Journalism has lost its way. Sink or Swim folks,, sooner or later people will ignore you. Then you go the way of hundreds of other Newspapers in the country.
    Fake News is Fake News

    Yes, because the major news outlets never run news that is deliberately misleading or absurdly biased...
    Painting all media outlets with one brush is rather misleading as well. 
    I don't think it is, everyone has an agenda, especially news agencies and should be judged accordingly.
    You can never accept news at face value, that would be irresponsible.

  • Jony Ive's departure follows years of dissatisfaction and absenteeism

    It is unbelievable that Apple couldn’t sell that Edition watch. Apple might sell it if they wanted that. While it is also true that the industry cannot tolerate such niche products, the Edition is only a fraction of Apple’s business and with such a power Apple could succeed with the Edition and obviously not go out of business like Vertu. There are a lot of VIPs in the world that would crave for such a watch. Apparently Ive has been left alone on the Marketing issues regarding Edition. The first Watch came in a luxurious box, with 2 m charging cable and a very high quality polycarbonate case. Watch 4 comes in a paper envelope, without case and with 70 cm charging cable unexpectedly short causing the Watch to slip from the hand and drop. The rationale of the Edition was not wrong, that spot on the wrist is very special and there are a lot of people that would decorate themselves on that spot with luxurious things. From high to low that would create demand for the less expensive variants as well.

    Ive’s departure is a loss for Apple.
    It didn't sell, Apple got stuck with a huge leftover.
    The watch was insane because it was identical to the $10000 less models.
    It was also much to bulky to be a fashion statement.
