Bootcamp is forever gone on the M1 Mac.. bad move by Herr Tim Cook.. this will make more people leave Apple - one thing I want to see is the internal IMPLOSION of Apple. I am waiting for this to happen so cook can be ousted and someone who like Steve can run the company. Not having Bootcamp is a tragedy which will decline sales of Apple’s overpriced M1 Mac which is a rip off of Exadata.

Nobody is going to leave apple because of bootcamp.

I just want Apple defeated by Intel.. Intel’s goal
Is to defeat apple. When Steve died, Apple died with him and now we are seeing garbage being produced - badly designed un-upgradable stuff - too much control and less DIY upgrades. Really, I think Apple is eventually going to fall by it’s own greed in management and QA, because I have their iPhone XR and it’s absolutely the worse phone I have owned and I can’t stand them limiting the service area because they FORCE you to buy new. This is why Intel has a much more advantage.. I used to be strong supporter of Apple or fanboi till I read truth about Apple.. now I am extreme anti-Apple after Jobs died.
Maybe you should redirect your anger against Apple into doing something constructive instead of vomiting on Internet forums?

The way to get Tim Cook's attention is to buy up 5% of their common stock.

The owners of AAPL seem pretty happy with how Tim Cook is managing the company.

Yup, my Apple stocks have done very well these last 10 years that I've owned them. Not a major investment in many peoples eyes but a significant part of my stock portfolio.

Most people with investments have an S&P 500 index fund in their portfolio and are therefore AAPL investors. That's people with 401k, 403b and pension plans. I have 4K shares as an investment outside of what I have in index funds.

For now.. but he is so corrupt. Apple is going the way Texas Instruments went in 1980s source: https://dfarq.homeip.net/texas-instruments-home-computer/ - Tim Cook is so corrupt and everyone else with whom works with him. Apple maybe fine now, but it’s a matter of time when Apple will be same fate as TI was in 1984 - HORRIBLE management and corporate corruption. I wait for this day !

You don't understand the massive corporate tech companies today and the incredible competitive advantages that they have over smaller companies. I worked in one of these for many decades and there are reasons why it is so difficult to take them on.
 
Rise and soon fall of Timothy Cook - commissar of Apple and the one who ruined Steve’s company


This, and projected growth, are what matters. Apple has a good track record on growing revenue and profits. Source: Yahoo Finance.

You just libeled Tim Cook. Hope you have a lawyer.

1) M1 is easily copied? Still waiting. Apple came out with their own CPU design that beats everyone in the mobile space and everyone in the laptop/desktop space. They invented a new file system and rolled it out to a billion people overnight with hardly a hiccup. They are about 2 years ahead of everyone in phone performance. They have 20% year over year speed improvements, for more than a decade.

2) the stock is at an all-time high. Their sales are at an all-time high. Their customer satisfaction is at an all-time high. So why is he deluding himself?

3) What the **** is that even supposed to mean?

4) What creative talent is leaving? Jony? The guy everyone complained about for 5 years? Their products aren’t exciting, so that’s why sales of the new iMacs exploded? You are making things up.

5) Ah, the old “my best friend’s little brother” evidence. Let us know when your dentist’s cat-sitter dumps Apple, and then we’ll know for sure that Apple is doomed.

Sadly, the new MacBook pros are built like trash and their QA is horrible - Apple cuts corners now and they force you to go to new model every year where DIY is no longer a possibility - yes, the days of upgradable Macs is ended and Commissar cook doesn’t care - I am sure Jobs looks down at Apple from the heavens and wishes he could stop cook. Cook is the disaster coming to Apple. Frankly. I don’t care anymore about Apple or Apple fan boiyism.. those days are long gone and think different is too - Apple gave in and lost the battle. Just a matter of time - how many of you iPhone users had to bear the forced downgrade in battery performance ? Still Apple is being sued for that and I hope they lose BIG TIME. I love my PowerPC and Intel Macs because they were designed with the heart and art in mind, now Apple’s laptops are garbage.

And yet sales are growing double-digits.

You do know that Jobs appointed Tim as his successor? I’m pretty sure that if there were any doubt about his ability to handle Apple he would not get the gig.

Your meaning of taking them “on” is different than my methods which I will not write here. Private msg me and I will tell you. All I know is Apple’s products, Mac mostly are poorly designed and they shut out DIY options to force one to buy new - the iPhone XR I have is built like **** that it overheats and the battery drains fast. It’s also not working very well with wifi and it’s brand new ! A friend of mine has a 16 inch 2019 MacBook pro and he tells me the machine is garbage due to overheating and internal design flaws - he is about to leave Apple because they are not the same innovative company they once were.. sadly, most of us in Ukraine can afford this type computer but from that, what I see is Apple is lying to everyone and it’s all propaganda - the M1 is all hype and yes Jonny Ive make great Apple products - the apple machine of years ago built better and DIY was reality. Now Apple only care about corporate negligence and practice. Again, Tim Cook is the type who doesn’t care. I do pray Intel does EXPOSE this lie that M1 is all hype.

Consumers have choices. If you don't like Apple gear, go elsewhere.

I've read people that hate the 16s and also people that love them. It's just hardware. If you don't like it, go elsewhere.

I don't see why you're getting so bent out of shape over a lifestyle company.

CPU designer here. Designed x86 processors, as well as PowerPC and SPARC.

M1 is not hype. If you think it is, you should go take four or eight years of electrical engineering and semiconductor physics classes and revisit.

I am not doubting it isn’t but Apples propaganda makes it think it is.
 
They worked together at apple from 1998 till Jobs died. Are you implying that Jobs was too weak all those years?
No, I am just trying to state Tim Cook has a hidden agenda and Jobs didn’t see it, sadly and now we are seeing the horror of Apple’s machines imploding on some of us..
