- maniacalrobot 12y agoI'd say that apple were a little bit more influential in 2007 over 2006, you know, the whole iPhone thing, and again in 2010. Google certainly aren't afraid to try new ideas, but they don't close to Apple when launching consumer products
- smoothgrips 12y agoBiggest in what way? Number of employees? Sure. Revenue? Samsung has got them beat [1]. Also, influential is very difficult to prove definitively. I find that word to be very subjective. [1]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_the_largest_information_technology_companies https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_the_largest_informatio...

- minthd 12y agoThe ipad hasn't had that big of an influence - sure it's a huge industry and it's good fun, but people would have done almost the same things using large phones pretty well.
- jonwinstanley 12y agoIt's hard to argue Samsung are more influential a company than Apple when the look of Samsung's products are so obviously "influenced" by Apple.
- smoothgrips 12y agoI never said Samsung is more influential than Apple. I also never said Apple isn't influential. I don't know where you got those ideas from. All I said is, according to what I found, Samsung has more revenue than Apple. Also, I think the word "influential" is subjective. That is all.
