A little perspective.

- I hope they at least gave her some stock (probably not, considering they didn't even give her a new phone with Siri)formed

- Apple didn't invent Siri, they bought it.monospaced
- you should be saying you hope Siri, Inc. gave her some of the $200 Million they sold it formonospaced
- lol you guys are hopeless. she sells her voice for a living!! her voice can be heard at ATM and air port for chrisake!pango

Apple's Evil Plan for World Domination
- I read the whole thing, but I don't see how a plan to make better products is "evil."monospaced
- formed0
I didn't see "better" listed anywhere there either ;-)
They would have to come up w/ something amazing. Unlike phones, there are some pretty nice TVs out there.
But who knows. The one thing they are really good at (or others are just plain bad at) is waiting until it is "right" before they release it. Why Samsung has bothered with that stupid watch is beyond me (clearly just trying to beat Apple to the game, even though it is all rumors).
There's a good video been floating around on how Google was going to take over the world, too.
Who doesn't want world domination?
- He didn't say "better," but he did write "high-quality" and then the whole section about taking time to make a TV productmonospaced
- It's about them making better products, not just getting to the market first.monospaced
- Also note the part about how "haters" don't understand. They just hate.monospaced
- Exactly, all business want to dominate, there's nothing "evil" about it.monospaced

Is Apple Stock the New Microsoft?
The two tech companies share some striking similarities ... and AAPL emulating MSFT wouldn't be a wholly bad thing.

New iPhones haven't saved Apple's stock
Despite glowing reviews and strong sales, new iPhones haven't done anything to get Apple's stock out of the doldrums.

from that article:"That's why some analysts consider Apple's share price drops following iPhone announcements to be meaningless."
- chossy0
This is the preceeding statement.
"That shows no discernible trend. Apple outperformed the Nasdaq a month after the iPhone was unveiled three times out of seven. In the other four years, Apple lagged."
So apple has done worse x 4 and well x3 I would say the trend is towards a bad performance.

What an absolutely mega douchebag!
Surprising No One, Steve Jobs Was a Jerk to His Girlfriend
Steve Jobs, famously cruel and temperamental as the CEO of Apple (AAPL), was equally humiliating to waiters, friends and even one of his 1970s hacker heroes, John Draper.
Jobs insisted he and an early girlfriend, Chrisann Brennan, sleep in separate rooms when they lived together in 1977, Brennan writes in a new book about their relationship. Jobs let Brenann have the master bedroom – for a month. Then, out of the blue, he changed his mind and moved Brennan out so he could have the bigger room.
