    According to Shanghai Adups Technology, the software installed on BLU's phones was a "mistake" 
    Bullshit.  They got caught and now trying to backpedal.  Just another nail in Android's coffin.  When Apple was making news for their phones being so locked-down while Android's creator Google being so quiet?  This is why.  Android is a joke of an OS and it banks on the user's stupidity to use their crappy software.

    I pity the chinese user.  China's government is so archaic, it just amazes me that the chinese population has not revolted and bring that government down.
    I pity the USofA user. USA government is so archaic, it just amazes me that the USA population has not revolted to bring that government down.

    Wow! That is affordable? The prices are just incredible. I don't think most people can justify this kind of expense for a laptop. I certainly can't.  They've completely price themselves out of the range of 99% of the population. The MacBooks are a joke and the Pros are computers for the 1%. Just like the iPad pros, they have gotten way too expensive. iPads used to be affordable for everyone. There used to be at least a couple of Macs I could afford. I guess I'm gonna have to learn to live with Windows 10. I use it at work. It isn't so bad I guess. Apple has completely done away with their entry and mid level computers and gone super ultra high premium. For the first time in 35 years I will have to be a Windows user. Too bad. I'm a little sad to say goodbye to the community. It's been nice being one of you.

    One of the faithful now apparently too poor for Apple to bother with.  
    Total cost of ownership will be higher than MBP if you go buy a windows computer. You will probably end up buying two Windows computers to last as long as a MBP

  • Wall Street positive on Apple's Q4 earnings, bullish on iPhone 7 holiday sales

    If there so positive then why is the stock down $4 a share. If this was Google or any other stock it would be up $25 a share. If they look at the big picture Apple is still making loads of money. If it were losing money then I could see the stock drop. But Apple is still way in positive territory and with new Macs on the way soon that will only increase.
    The market still treats Apple unfairly to this day.
    $4 drop is simply some profit taking and normal day to day trading ranges esp after earning as stockholder rebalance their positions.
