Apple investors should cash in on US-China trade war, says Merrill Lynch
How would you know that?flydog said:
Automation can’t replace all human labor so the discussion is purely academic. iPhone production already utilizes about as much automation as is possible.sirozha said:Automation would create fewer jobs in the US? You mean fewer than 0? Would it be better to create high-paying jobs at automated assembly plants in the US or low-paying manual assembly jobs in Vietnam?

LG UltraFine 5K display sold out on online Apple store
OMG. This post makes me sick.johnbsirius said:Oh I really want this new monitor to be announced now. The anticipation is killing me. I’ve got two LG 5Ks that I’m hoping I can find a buyer for. I’m considering selling them as a two for the price of (a new) one; anyone think that’s a decent value? No WiFi issues and after calibration they are almost identical to my MBP display.

Editorial: Intel CPU constraints are sign on the road to ARM chips in the Mac
This whole article is an assumption. When I said that only lower-end Macs would initially be transitioned to the ARM architecture, I based it on the fact that higher-end MacBook Pros use the Intel CPUs that cannot yet be touched by the Apple’s ARM-based CPUs. Back in the early 2000, when Apple transitioned from PPC to Intel, the reason was that Intel’s CPUs were more powerful and power-efficient than PPC. Today, the Apple ARM-based CPUs are competitive only with lower-end Intel CPUs.canukstorm said:

The only way for Apple to ensure that there are plenty of apps for the ARM-based macOS isLordZedd said:I've been through the 6502-68K, 68K-PPC and PPC-Intel switches. If there is a switch to ARM, I'm out. No bootcamp, no VM, no games at all, no professional apps, no drivers for anything.
to make a hybrid iOS/macOS device. With the Marzipan framework, the same app can run in iOS and macOS with minimal effort. That’s the only way to leverage the plethora of existing iOS apps to run in the desktop (aka ARM-based macOS) mode. Otherwise, few developers will want to develop for the ARM-based macOS.

That's an assumption. When Apple transitioned from PPC to Intel, they transitioned the entire Mac line in 1.5 years. I don't expect anything different if (or when) they transition the Mac line to ARM

Samsung posts weakest profit since 2016 because of weak chip, smartphone markets
No, I don't think iPhone was "core" pre-2007. Maybe I don't think so because iPhone didn't exist before 2007? What do you think ?AppleExposed said:sirozha said:
I'm not an analyst, but please remember that for Samsung, the smartphone division is not the core business or main revenue stream. For Apple, the smartphone division is the core business and the main revenue stream.lkrupp said:But only Apple’s drop in iPhone sales means anything, right, analysts?
I think we are going to be unpleasantly surprised this afternoon with the Apple numbers. I hope I'm wrong.
iPhone is no more "core" than the knockoffs from Samsung.
Do you really think iPhone was Apples core pre-2007? Funny how people re-interpret Apples "core" every decade. I predict soon Apple will be a "services company" and their "core" will be "services".
