Well it's probably because all of their computers are prebuilt with relatively weak gpu's for gaming..even if they had prioritised it through the software how many people would game on their hardware. Though now with thunderbolt 3

Same thing when Microsoft launched Xbox One in 2013. They talked about TV content that they would be investing in. I was just thinking...why are you getting involved in making TV shows?..you and Sony effectively have a duopoly on the consol

yeah...it's just that a lot of people already have at least a 5" smartphone and/or tablet (tablet sales have been shrinking due to this) so I don't know how much of the tablet aspect is appealing nowadays...3 years ago i

Zelda at launch was a strong boost...and I suspect they will get another boost at holiday season when Super Mario Odyssey comes out. But there are a lot of months in between that are not filled in with much... Since the console is not like

I don't think launch sales are a good indicator to go by... There is enough of a hardcore Nintendo fanbase to buy up initial launch supply. Let me know of the sales in July.

I have both a "dumbphone" and a smartphone. But honestly, if you want a dumbphone get something like an old BlackBerry Curve. That way you still retain full keyboard capabilities instead having to use T9 for texting.

These blanket platitudes are kind of annoying...the same liberals who like saying this stuff over and over in Canada also have damaging policies towards the economy in general.

> Apple is betting heavily on wireless, and lightning headphones is just a stop-gap solution while wireless headphones improve. A way for people to be able to buy some cheap, simple headphones to replace the bundled ones if they need to.

BlackBerry essentially killed itself in a few shorts years (basically 2007-2010) by not seriously reacting to iphone and android. I'm convinced if a blackberry 10 OS phone had come out in 2010 they might have held on to market share..

Ports aren't really an issue to me...in a couple of years everything will be USB-C and/or wireless charging/headphones anyway. Big issue is Apple has no new innovative products. Apple Watch isn't really enough of new pr

I'm guessing iPhone 8 will be a enough significant design change to maintain sales. However we are getting to the point with smartphones like we did with PC's ten years ago where they just became "good enough" for everyd

Although I'd imagine a liquid diet where you are mainly only consuming smoothie type beverages has to be less hard on your digestive system just because of the simply fact it requires less effort to break down?

Even if you're not a leftist you can see there would be a much higher efficiency of people only having a car when needed. You only have to look at driveways and parking lots to see how inefficient car use is currently.
