I don't understand why anyone past Kindergarten uses Apple products.

I guess if Angry Birds and Poke Mon Go is your thing, you're golden.

Bannon/Breitbart is now the strategy point guy for the POTUS. A little late for Apple to close the gate...the herd is out of the pen.

Purging of access to "fake news"...

Washington Times

MSM is starting to put this out...

Andrew Breitbart tweet before death adds fuel to online speculation of D.C. sex-trafficking ring Newspapers, pundits blast charges from ‘dark crevices of the Web’ By Douglas Ernst - The Washington Times - Monday, November 28, 2016


quote:

Social media speculation of a sex-trafficking ring in the nation’s capital has burned up social media sites for weeks. Complicating matters is Hillary Clinton campaign chairman John Podesta’s decision not to comment on anything WikiLeaks-related for months. Explosive claims by Internet sleuths, which were prompted after reading stolen documents belonging to Mr. Podesta, have been derided as “viciously phony” by Fox News’ Howard Kurtz. A tweet by Mr. Breitbart shortly before his March 1, 2012, death is now being cited by online researchers as proof that they are onto something big.

Why use the app anyway? Doesn't the browser work just as good?

Most are sheep and keep buying same phone every year with one lil new gimmick that they go crazy over. Just like my wife's crapple phone when the same screen protector and case work with the new phone not much has changed lol

So they want to alienate 45 million people.


Their new business model doesn't look very bright.

it struck me recently that all of these Dems/leftists whining about racism, censorship, totalitarianism, etc, aren't really afraid of all that crap. They just literally cannot process that enough American people rejected the stronghold their political (and apparently personal) heroes had on our polity. Since 2008, they have truly believed that, the Rs would never control things again. That's why we call their reactions "melts." it really has nothing to do directly with principled political, ethical or moral stances.

I know plenty who can use Macs at work now (my firm included).

Most of my friends have PC laptops they ditch when possible for their MacBooks.

Apple is great at marketing. They're also great at making computers.

Odd, I don't know any.

I've been a software developer since the 80's and see very little practical use in my field for Apple products - outside the realm of education. Which by the way is in part to deals struck with states or schools and Apple.

Countless times I've seen college graduates show up to work with zero knowledge of how to use a business computer.

This is true. At my university, a MacBook is required for all students who choose my particular major and degree plan.
