Unless you’re a shareholder this isn’t good news. Some people act like this is a sports team to them. Celebrating multi trillion dollar companies is cringe.

I still think Microsoft/Nvidia will go in front. I’m excited for iOS and MacOS 15 but Apple will need to do a lot more in the coming years if they want to stay up where they are.

Vision Pro looks like a failure but maybe with it finally coming to more markets and Apple being so desperately like “please develop for it, please!” then it will have some success but it’s still a $3,500 headset. It’s going to take years for Vision headsets to really take off if they ever do.

iPhones sales are still struggling. Services are doing well for Apple but they need some new exciting hardware to milk for the next couple decades. I think they thought Vision would be that but the headsets taking over iPhone is probably at least 10 years away.
iPhone sales struggling is a silly statement.
 
Microsoft was first? Why? They did nothing since 2000s
You have no idea how big Microsoft services and cloud department is do you?

You think just because Microsoft hasn't been droppin consumer products left and right like apple that MS doesn't do anything lol......

MS is one of the undisputed kings of enterprise and cloud services and software development, among many many other products that apple is not even involved in or considered a joke of a player. (you can't compare apple to ms or ms to apple because they effectively are NOT operating in the same market or markets)

Microsoft has also been taking down botnets that affect even apple products since before apple considered product security basically.

What Microsoft actually does is like comparing a novel compared to what Apple does (media consumption and consumer products only). Basically apple is a single sheet of paper for revenue streams.
 
And I own both companies! I bought MSFT when Windows 3 came out. I bought Apple when Jobs was reinstated as CEO. I bought Nvidia in 2022.

And I don't give a damn what any MacRumors trolls think about it. I retired in 2014, and I'm never gonna have to work again.

Why are you on forums? If I was retired with mills in stock I'd be hand building a clay oven to make traditional pizzas in the middle of the countryside and going fishing. Last thing I would do is talk to strangers online :p
 
I don’t think Apple will be in the lead for long. Ignoring enterprise will/has hurt them and you can only milk the existing consumer products for so long. Too little streams for growth, but axing projects like the car was a good thing. Makes the road much clearer and ironically news of that only increased their price back then. TIL Apple doesn’t even charge manufacturers for CarPlay. Hopefully their AI can actually make use of the Vision Pro otherwise it would be another iPadOS situation.

Fun fact: Apple gained about $350B in 2 days, which is roughly Samsung’s market cap ($370B).

They didn't say how much they invested. For all we know, it could have been $100 each company.

Apple's stock price continues to surge following its WWDC keynote this week, where it introduced an Apple Intelligence suite of AI features coming to the iPhone, iPad, and Mac. In intraday trading today, Apple overtook Microsoft to become the world's most valuable company again, but the two tech giants may trade places throughout the day.

Apple's stock crossed the $200 mark and set a new all-time high on Tuesday, and it has rose another 3% today as of writing. Generative AI has been a buzz topic for investors since ChatGPT debuted in 2022, and Apple finally unveiling its own strategy for the technology has likely contributed to this surge.

Apple Intelligence features will allow users to summarize text, create custom emoji and images, receive priority notifications, and more. Siri is also getting smarter with Apple Intelligence, with richer language understanding and more per-app controls. The features will require an iPhone 15 Pro or newer, or a Mac or iPad with an M1 chip or newer.

Apple had a market cap of $3.28 trillion as of writing, compared to $3.25 trillion for Microsoft.

Besides at the job why would anyone want Mickey in their house I don’t get it? Like the Android virus I don’t get why people use it over Apple.

Nvidia will be outperformed by the Chinese. A manipulated share. Microsoft/Gates/pharmaceuticals. And Apple as controlled opposition.
 
i totally miss-predicted that one. a few months ago i was expecting them to have nothing interesting to ride the AI hype train and the stock to crash. so i sold my stock 😅

oh well... put that money into nvidia and is doing great anyway. but going back, i would sell something else.

Microsoft sucks so much people would rather use their iPhones at work.

Microsoft creates leaky software susceptible to computer viruses and hacking then sells you products to check and protect you from computer viruses and hacking.

I wish they'd just make a simple pair of AR glasses that plugged into your phone.
 
It is my thoughts. I don't like Microsoft. Everything they make in business is boring and tedious and more complex than it needs to be.

Vision Pro is not a failure. Some people 🤡 really want it to be a failure.
