I have a heck of a time posting on my iPod -- it can be done, but after 2 minutes of pecking at it, I'm searching for a real computer keyboard... like my MacBook, or my Win7 desktop. The handhelds are fine for really short messages but I find them frustrating for anything longer than an SMS.
More power to ya!
I can do well posting and surfing. what kills me is posting pics and html. For that I need my Win7 machine
Might as well pick up the Anti Glare screen cover. I am having trouble locating case, ATT was out. I can not go 4 to 6 weeks without the case. The antenna bars fall after 4 seconds of touching metal rim and sometime the signal searches. I can’t believe Jobs was trying to cop out of the problem. Other than that the phone is fantastic and every way.
Apple II was pre-dated by many other personal computers. It wasn’t even that big of a seller, being way outsold by many options from Commodore (who still holds the record for the greatest sales of any model of computer).
As far as the first mass-market GUI OS, define mass market. The Macs were a small player in the market, the C64s and PCs greatly eclipsing what the Mac had. The GEOS on the C64 sold something like 1.5 million copies, about 5 times more than the Mac at the time.
The iPod? Portable MP3 players had been in commercial production for 6-7 years before the iPod. Rio and Creative both had strong presence in the market.
Apple’s been much more a “take an idea and polish it to a high degree” than to actually innovate or create new concepts. Which is what you state. That’s not innovation, though - that’s simply execution on an existing idea.
And as far as bigger gross? Not a chance. Siemens, Samsung, LG, and several others (including Microsoft) gross more than Apple.
FR has gone down hill with their apple threads. I can’t believe they allow your posts on here without banning you. I understand some name calling and poking people, but about all you do is immediately storm into the thread and call people names.
It’s really childish. As long as people like you are on there I don’t think I’ll be paying FR.
Get off these threads and stay off!! Or stay the hell off of FR!!
thanks Jim.
Yes - others were first, but those others - including the VIC and such weren't the reason IBM faced up to the reality that they couldn't stay out of the personal computer market; the Apple II was.Apple’s been much more a “take an idea and polish it to a high degree” than to actually innovate or create new concepts.

But I don't think you will question that, precisely because Apple has been the leader in fit and finish of its software as well as its hardware, Microsoft has followed Apple - the Mac being the salient example, followed years later by the first successful version of Microsoft Windows - version 3.0.The Mac was not the PC sales leader, it's true - the IBM PC took that niche. But it was followed by those who did have the big market share. It doesn't seem right to me to say that the Mac wasn't "mass market" - GUI existed only on really expensive workstations before the Mac. I was too frugal back then to buy an early a Mac - but I could have bought one.
You're so OLD America. It used to be that if you didn't like something, you'd present an alternative--such as a new newspaper to counter a bad one, etc. Now, it's whine about the bad one and try to get it shut down.
