Since 20 years ago I tried the iMac of a friend and discovered that their mouses have only one button, and my friend tried to evangelize me about how better is to combine keyboard with mouse to do what a regular cheap fucking mouse does with only a button press, I never in my life wanted to try any Apple product.

Apple the first ever company in the world to be at $3 trillion dollars. That's just a big giangantic wow factor there. So microsoft helped apple come back after an almost bankruptcy and than 25 years later Apple whoops microsoft asss with more money profit. How does it feel microsoft? Feel like shit yet?

It´s time for a split.

Absolutely not. There never should be any enforcement by any government in the world to split up a company. That's absolutely preposterous.

Still only 3 trillion what pathetic losers. Send them some money to help them out.

They would have been broken up in that antitrust case if they didn't play it carefully. I guess back then in the nineties, the US government seemed to care more about appearing to not just be in the back pocket of corporations.

Yeah, monopolies for everyone!
(Not saying apple is a monopoly, just pointing out this is a silly comment)

No company should be enforced to comply to a split of the company at all. It's called true freedom. I'd say more but we are not allowed to bring in political talk into the forums at neogaf.

While I don't mind Apple products, iOS has gone downhill in the last two versions.

I wouldn't know as I don't iPhone or iPad. Which of course iPad has it's own OS now though. iPad OS. iPhone has iOS. and than there's of course Mac OS.

No it’s not. monoplies work against freedoms and solid economics. It’s not hard to understand
Apple isn’t a monopoly though.

Doesn't Google pay Apple enormous sums of money every year to stay the default search engine on iPhone, iPad, and Mac?
$3 billion a year.
$3 billion a year.

I wonder how much it would grow if they opened MacOS to be installed on high end PCs instead of windows 11.

So why the discussion on split up? Facebook has come up as a question in question serveys for should they be split up multiple times in quentionares. Yet they still haven't and I've run into the same question probably over 500 times now. Apple is not a monopoly even though they have more money than microsoft right now. There's still Microsoft and Apple.

It's really cool. I'm not a big fan of Apple technology, but I'm really happy for them. Also happy for myself because I bought shares in this company even earlier.

60 years ago, 3 trillion dollars was the worth of the entire US economy. Kinda wild when you think about it.

So which brand do you support? Disgusting Microsoft? Fucking Google? Neglectful Samsung?
I mean of phone and computer makers... everyone kinda is evil pieces of shit. Just curious which one you think smells the best.

They could use that money to save the planet instead of using it for PR brainwash …
I agree all of them sucks! The lesson here is, they didn’t become a big tech corporation by thinking what’s best for the users… it’s sad when we have to carefully choose the less worse one from all of them!

I am talking about the global waste of tech/garbage.
From a company who doest want to include cables because "it causes waste", to cutting down a forest to put solar panels...it all sounds a bit hypocritical

Unless I'm very much misunderstanding, that is not the amount of money that Apple control.

It’s funny that android fanboys are always talking about apple users…. Always…
while apple users are only talking about apple products.
