Nope like I said I am not saying it's right or wrong, but a business lying when it is convenient is just the way things work. Lying without legal liability is a business and marketing strategy. Apple is absolutely "allowed" to do this. I never said it was right or wrong. I was just commenting on what happened. From a business perspective, if I was in their position, not having a touch screen laptop while so many competitors had one, I would absolutely have done the same thing and said whatever I needed to say regardless of whether it's true or not.So is Apple never allowed to change its mind on touchscreen laptops just because they once believed they weren't very good?
You need to read more carefully and think more deeply instead of making a knee jerk defense of Apple. Don't just agree with Apple marketing no matter what. Don't let them drag your mind around whichever way they want you to go. They want you to "stay foolish," but you need to "think different." You can do it.
They made some comments about touchscreen laptops that would be impossible to backtrack on without contradicting themselves unless they fundamentally change the very design and structure a laptop, such as saying that it is "ergonomically terrible", as well as other comments. If they release a touch screen laptop without fixing the issues that they themselves previously declared, then that makes those previous comments lies. If they change the fundamental design of what it means to be a laptop itself, then those previous comments would not apply. Thus I am correct either way.
