Is it odd that Apple is skipping the iPhone 9 and jumping from 8 to X about two years after MS skipped MS 9 and jumped from 8 to 10?

And Apple is still hiding money, not paying their fair share of taxes.

Bring that up to any hippie apple fanboys you know.

They have a pretty solid defense.

Ever see that new Apple ad with the little girl using the iPad Pro? She gets asked by her neighbor at the end, "What are you doing on your computer?"

The little girl responds, "What's a computer?"

What am I supposed to take away from that?

That the iPad isn't a computer? Because I already know that.

That Apple users are so stupid they don't even know a common word like "computer"? Because I could believe that.

Kind of sad how they are promoting this like they've bought some sort of new and bleeding edge technology.

Apple admits to sabotaging older phones.

Why would they admit this?

Doesn't this open them up to a class action lawsuit?

Yes. I read there were a couple already gaining steam. My understanding was that someone else found the evidence of it and Apple was needing to come up with a reason for it other than "we want you to keep buying newer phones".

"We made it so you can't replace the battery so we slow the phone down as it gets older so the degrading, unreplaceable battery lasts longer.". And then there will be campaign donations, and that will.fly.

I'm sure the people in that class action lawsuit will enjoy their $17 credit to the purchase of their next iPhone, when Apple purposely slows down their current iPhone.

I'd call you a cynic, but as a realist I know you're right.

Big Apple investors want Apple to look into kids and iPhone addiction.

I'm actually down for a study, and I don't mind investors asking the company profiting to pay for it.

However, wouldn't a proper study take a long ass time?
