Apple iPhone SE teardown reveals mashup of iPhone 5 & 6 series chips, few new parts
rob53 said:Why are you saying Apple's parts come from a "parts bin"? This term is used for antiquated parts, usually from garbage PCs, but never from Apple products. Using this term, then saying it's also using parts from the iPhone 6s makes it sound like the 6s is also using old parts. Just because Apple is using some parts from the 5s doesn't mean those parts aren't any good. I see the iPhone SE as a smaller 6s, not a reloaded 5s. Give it its due instead of making fun of it.

San Bernardino's top cop says it's likely 'there is nothing of any value' on iPhone the FBI wants A
Maybe get a few contacts out of a phone vs make millions of phones unsafe and foreign products more appealing. If it works out like the cloud fiasco we can drive another 100 billion out of the US economy. Which makes the USA stronger, having 100 billion dollars of economic activity or maybe a few bits of information that can probably be gathered elsewhere?

Judge orders Apple to access iPhone belonging to San Bernardino shooter [u]
suddenly newton said:It sounds like Apple is being asked to install software that prevents the built-in code that auto-deletes/destroys the phone's content when too many bad password are attempted (brute force attack).
In other words, it will give the FBI an unlimited number of password retries.
To paraphrase Mission Impossible:
"This phone will self-destruct in 5 seconds."

Apple sells 74.8M iPhones, rakes in $75.9B in revenue in company's biggest quarter ever

...Really the only thing that can stop this drop is the buyback....
Buybacks to prop up stock price is a huge sign that the markets have no confidence in the stock - and very fleeting in effect.
