  • Apple CEO Tim Cook gifts President Trump gold & glass commemorative plaque

    abujazar said:
    Cook is not only selling his soul to Trump with blatant corruption, he's also undermining the political system and contributing to turning the US into a banana republic.
    Because of a photo op and a plaque? What a weak political system we have if that undermines it. 

    But you’re right about what Generalisimo Trump is doing.

  • Apple expected to announce another $100B U.S. manufacturing investment

    What a world we live in now. The market is thrilled about this announcement. I’m sure it’s not about the actual impact of a big investment in domestic manufacturing. It’s all about believing that Apple might get favorable treatment from our fickle king because they are willing to make look good with a joint announcement. Then at some point DJT will tweet something negative about Apple and AAPL will get clobbered again.

  • AppleCare One launches as a single plan to cover multiple Apple devices



    The pricing doesn't change based on the type of devices being covered. That means a customer who covers an iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch under AppleCare One could save up to $11 per month compared to paying for individual plans.
    ........


    AppleCare One can actually save users money, especially if they already have more than one Apple device. For someone with an iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch, separate AppleCare+ plans would cost about $21 a month.

    The AppleCare One plan covers all three for $19.99, so you save a bit each month without losing any features. The savings grow as more devices are added.

    Where does the $11 figure come from? 
    Apple provided the figure. There's lots of ways to arrive at different savings, or even AppleCare One costing you more than AppleCare+. You'll have to do the math on a per device basis. For example, Apple Vision Pro alone is $25 a month, so AppleCare One is a good get.
    Ok, but then "That means a customer who covers an iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch under AppleCare One could save up to $11 per month compared to paying for individual plans." probably should say "depending on your devices" rather than "iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch." Or maybe that for the most expensive iPhone, biggest iPad, and Apple Watch Ultra. Ok whatever.

  • One of these three Apple executives will probably be Tim Cook's replacement

    When Tim Cook steps down as Apple’s CEO, there will be several obvious candidates for the role. However, I think much will depend on exactly when he retires — the timing could greatly influence the choice of his successor.
    Tough crowd. A new poster here, with 2 comments to their name, says something objectively true and relevant, and someone here clicks "Dislike"?  Come on people.
