California doesn’t have just one or an overall ‘quality of life’. You can find almost any kind of community and any level of ‘quality of life’ you want.

Sure you can, if you a willing to pay the price. OBTW 30 year CA resident until I retired and RAN out of the state.

Did you know that half of the people living in California are yes originally from places outside of California? It’s not just California that creates the stigma you’re referring to.

Yes. We know that . The issue is there too many residents that come here to live OFF California and thats why the over-taxed middle-class decide to leave the state for AZ and TX and other points.

This is one physical project that will be finished after the next Mac Pro is. Maybe.

And each iteration of iPhone has more tech than the last. Why shouldn’t apple charge more as its pricing it’s tech to the value within. Car manufacturers do the same thing.

Because tech gets cheaper over time, and because consumers don't care about the new tech anyway. No tech product gets more expensive over time except Apple's.

Old tech gets cheaper over time, new tech costs and it shows in the price of goods. Your statement is disingenuously false as the note 9 made its debut in the same ballpark as the Xs.

Go for it! And please...come back and let us know how that works out for you, say, next February.


"Nobody's excited about their products anymore, and investors don't know that."

Nobody? You're speaking for everyone now? Two hundred+ million customers who willingly open their wallets year after year to purchase Apple products would likely disagree with you.

Dang, earnings came in early this year.

thanks for posting that @RPATX33

I'm surprised it looks like Apple did not install solar. This is TEXAS for gods sake.

Wind, solar help Texas meet record power demand during heat wave

The Texas power grid comfortably met record demand during this week's heat wave with abundant power supply from wind and solar plants, data from the grid operator showed.
