Halleluiah, something they actually agree on!
Agreed. Especially after the nice installment they got from Samsung. I have seen Apple shifting in the wrong direction right around the time Steve got sick. I used to be in love with everything Apple ever made, their business motto and I was proud to use/buy their products.
Nowadays they have become another Microsoft and the fact I still buy their products (to be honest) is because I am used to the software and user experience, don't want to learn the whole Android and Windows mobile software. That pride that once existed, is no longer there.
Shame the money didnt go to a much more deserving causes.
Indeed. This donation is for publicity only.
what they should of done is donated BEFORE the hurricane hit.
"This is 2.5 million in case something goes wrong......."
oh who cares if a post like that is in this thread. Its the internet its a given.
Samsung to donate 3 million just to top that 2.5
It would be nice to see some funds go to a more direct action response group, such as Team Rubicon.
Glad to see Apple donating though.
Samsung donated on Nov 5, Apple did it on Nov 8. How is it that Samsung wanted to "top that" ?

And exactly how much did you donate before the hurricane hit?

so Apple donates what they make in less then an hour
If Apples net worth was represented as $500,000 then they gave about $2 out of that to Sandy Relief. Not much really.

What's more deserving than hurricane relief?

this is like me or you giving a beggar a few pennies, id have been impressed if it had 2.5 Billion with a B..
I don't know, maybe THOUSANDS of children dying in Africa each day because of malnutrition, no medical care, ... But our thoughts go to people who don't have electricity and gas.
Obviously good to see the money being donated, but this is a ******** amount from Apple.
Around 8 mins revenue from a company that makes 156 billion a year (2012).
In comparison Lady Gaga donated donated 1 million, and I'm pretty sure she does not make billions a year.
Massive FAIL
Why not $500 million?
