Story: A worm belies Apple's perfection

uhhh, Apple's products are rated all the time by people actually buying them, they don't need to rate the price, as you say; because the price is right next to the item....

saying apple would build something that is sub par then rate it sub par is more than a little stupid don't you think?

only a journalist with an axe to grind would be stupid enough to think Apple would do that... let alone build sub par products...

what ever apple builds, they believe is the best product at the time they are building it.... or they wouldn't build it....

then the MARKET RATES IT , by actually buying the product....

and obviously the Market has rated Apple products the best.... by actually paying prices in quantity for these products like they do BMWs or Mercedes..... and Apple actually makes a very good profit..... more profit per share than Dell has or Microsoft.....

what business plan is better? just take a look at a stock chart sense the time when Steve Jobs changed the business plan and you can see which one was better for the shareholders of the respective companies.... and the only way shareholders are happy, is if the customers like the products and actually buy them....

and your comment about the worm also shows you have little understanding of what is going on.... the rest of the world told apple that there was no worm.... their PR department is only repeating what the rest of the world already knows... that the malware was not a worm... only stupid reporters who don't know the difference report it as a worm...
