Apple's iPhone unaffected by chip shortage hitting rivals
lorca2770 said:Nothing NEW!! Apple has been doing it, if I recall, for the last 15 years. Has the competition learned anything yet, or are they absolutely INCOMPETENT?
Indeed. Back then I recall the criticism about Apple wasting all their money on acquiring way too many components (especially memory), since that forced them to not refresh models as fast, and this would obviously affect their bottom line, as people did not want to buy yesterday's technology. Those geniuses thought Apple had a limited fanatical base that would always buy latest-greatest, and could never grow new consumers. I guess they were right, and that is why the iPhone is relegated to a bit player in the smartphone market.

Hank Azaria tapped to play Tim Cook in new Showtime series about Uber
Indeed. Makes me wonder if his protesting the Apu character was a contract negotiation to allow him to do other things - like this.

Apple's record $81.4 billion Q3 obliterates Street expectations
Way too much "first $2.5 trillion" talk that was pushing the stock too high before earnings report. Reality set in.

Apple employees threaten to quit as company takes hard line stance on remote work
Remember initially how it was "two weeks to flatten the curve" and that was that?Would these people be raising the same stink if it had actually been only two weeks?Anyone familiar with Apple's secrecy should already know they want to keep things in tightly-secured physical offices, and not discussed on Zoom.

Future Apple Watch may move its battery to give haptic feedback
I'm still wondering if there are plans to introduce haptic on a watch band. Getting vibrations in the same place can be confusing, but moving them around will help differentiate.
