Steve Jobs died almost six years ago,
That's it. They added Beats headphones, but that wasn't an innovation and frankly cheapened and divided Apple's simple and singular corporate brand. Their computers and phones are fine but stale. They make nothing new that everybody craves any more. Just lots of stuff that's good and everybody uses. Maybe Apple is Blackberry now

Your Say
I've owned one Apple product, a turquoise iBook G3 Clamshell. Had a chance to get it cheap about 15 years ago, so bought it and disassembled it to see how it was made. Turned out it was made just like other laptops of the time, same components, same quality of construction etc. So I put it back together, installed a triple boot OS9/OSX/linux hard drive, fooled around with it some, and put it away. It's still there if anybody wants to fork out for a rare vintage conversation piece, as they say on ebay.
