  • "A bunch of powerful guts and USB control ports. Or wireless controls. Personally I would opt for the corded option to save space in the unit and not be bothered by batteries. You could even put a Solid State Drive in to remove any moving parts and go back to the old cartridge based system of games." This really shows how out of touch with modern gamers you really are, which of the three modern consoles comes with a wired controller still? None of them. What's the point of the extra expense of an SSD, when a regular hard drive will suffice? Its not like this is gonna be a portable gaming system? Cartridges, really? Apple would find something as ancient as cartridges completely abhorrent with their clean lines etc. If Apple did ever make a console, it would be cleanly styled with hopefully a new, maybe touch/motion based interface that would be crippled by their insistence on keeping it a completely closed platform. Have you seen the reviews of the download-only PSP Go? Turn that into a home console and slap an Apple sticker on it, you'll get the same type of reviews.

    The Argument for the Pippin Continued.
  • You could really do with reading through what you've written before you post it. I understand that you can't possibly pick all the mistakes under the pressures, and I in no way expect edited articles as in a newspaper, but, it could be better. And to answer your article, I think that Apple is still relevant and is still caring about what they make, and trying to push forward in the product lines they pursue. I think your ending is slightly unfair; you can't possibly presume that Apple will pull a game-changing product out of the bag at every single event they ever hold. You just have to accept that for Apple to continue to create fantastic products means that they'll probably be few and far between, with many more refinements in between.

    Reflections on 25 Years, Does Apple Still Matter?
  • "Apple took a different route and decided on using metal and glass. And as we can see it paid off nicely for them." That is until they made enough money with the first generation iPhones and started fobbing people off with the cheap and scratch-able plastic backs they have today. Admittedly, most Apple products still feel very good in the hand. As for your search for a phone, I don't know if you have them over in America but some of the new Sony Ericssons are reassuringly weighty and have a quality feel, such as the C902 and the T650.
