    They aren't corporations where one is judged by its ability to survive and boost earnings and technology.

    They are people selling their ideals.

    Grow up, Peter Pan.
    They are selling a product (ie. their persona), for which there is an eager market. Doesn't mean the product is any good. Ditto Apple.

    Peter Pan doesn't grow up.

    If their product sells, then it fits a niche and defines it as good.

    Apple is just like any other corporation that sells things people don't need. They're just really good at it and consumers are just too prone to grab up shiny things.

    I remember my first job out of college. My coworker and I are eating lunch in the Columbia Mall in Maryland, looking around. He says, "You know, if they fired everyone who worked on stuff we didn't need, this place would be empty. We might be the only people going in to work today."

    I gave up laughing recently in favor of crying.
    Are you sure you're not a Juve fan?

    Btw, my company gave me an iPad, and I don't know what to do with it. It's like a dumbed-down iPhone for pre-school kids. I don't get it...
    Sell it

    You can make a cool $800 easy

    Exactly, its about their dumb customers who buy it up

    Can't blame Apple for catering to that niche
