There's a way of saying what I think you're trying to say. Unfortunately I think you failed in the method of delivery. Personally I see that (part of) the success is the fashion element of the iPod etc and I feel this has a stronger pull in

Very interesting. I had not seen that before. Some of those Braun designs are lovely (I've looked further at this). Even if Jonathan Ive has borrowed from this design, the Apple designs do look lovely in comparison to many of the other com

Statements like this are short-sighted. Apple sells based on design, so I would say that in this instance you are incorrect (based on the number of people who like Apple kit for the design). Hacker News is a business-focused site related t

I bought a Jaguar XK because I love the car, the attention to detail and the style. Yes, I could have bought something much cheaper, probably just as reliable (or more so!) but I chose this route as it has a sense of style. If there's anyt

Great story but it doesn't work for everyone. I actually took this approach and because I was big enough it worked. My own child has a different temperament to me and would not do this. The child who goes up against the bully and loses, en

I'm talking about the online service. If you rely on a service, and put time and energy into organizing what you like, then the fear is that at some point it might disappear. Possibly a little irrational, but thats why I like to 'own' and s

Frankly I'm not sure it's just the 'kids'. I'm 39 and whilst I like the Spotify service, I also like the knowledge that I've got my own music stored. I'd hate to think I'd built up a series of playlists with an online service only for them

Didn't the woman who wrote Harry Potter do the entire first book in a coffee shop? Well, at least thats the PR! Just think - we might have no Harry Potter if her local coffee shop (cafe) had kicked her out. I'll leave that up to you, if yo

Well, I suspect they're happy in their grumpiness. I know a few old (and grumpy people) like my father in law. He loves being grumpy :)

Apple has always had the philosophy of selling at higher prices than others based on the 'quality' of their products - I'm not judging on this, just saying - it also gives them better margins. I remember there was a quote from Steve Jobs s

I remember seeing Fog Creek use glass whiteboards. I keep meaning to get some made, and I don't like the idea of writing all the walls. Just found a link to a photo: http://picasaweb.google.com/spolsky/FogCreekSNewOffice#52853...
