They're trying to go for home runs when some singles and doubles would have been enough to win the game. Now they're down in the bottom of the 9th with a 0 score.

Associating inanimate objects with having greed... a new bar for this thread.
Click to expand...

Well not the product itself, however the intentions behind it can be associated with greed. The intention behind TFT panels and 5400 rpm HDDs.

Is English not your first language? I think there's some miscommunication going on here, otherwise you would've understood where I'm coming from, in regards to the statements I've made.

Are you sure about the italicized bit? i was under the impression that the i7-6567U was the 28W chip, with Iris 550.
Click to expand...
Whoops, sorry. Not the i7-6567U. I meant everything else is correct, except substitute the core i7-6567U for the core i7-6650U. The i7-6650U is 15W with Iris 540 that was released later than the "first 15W chips" released from intel, like the core i5-6300U, which had Intel HD graphics.

Been browsing Twitter, especially Craig and found these 2 tweets. I am now almost a believer of Apple starting with Kaby Lake.

First - he posted this on Juli 21st

https://twitter.com/_HairForceOne/status/753013921091432449/photo/1

Clear indication for September 7th for new iPhone without Headphone cables/jack.

Now 2nd post

Holy Crap Craig is trolling. Dissing Skylake, "play time is over", "You guys like dongles and adapters, right?" WTF?? I love that guy. Is such a enthused geek :)

No it doesn't. They can easily create a video as part of a press release that showcases the functions of the strip. If they decide to show the new MBP at the event next week, it will not be because of the OLED strip. Instead, it will be to show off the entire redesign, of which the strip is just a part.

I think we're both arguing for the same thing. The new MBP needs stage time. The design is worthy of Tim holding the laptop in his hands and for them to stress the innovations within. The OLED bar is worthy of a demo, to embrace developer support and highlight the uses in real time. Couple that with Siri integration with Sierra.

Is english your second language? Because he's absolutely correct that objects aren't greedy. People are greedy, and calling something a "greedy product" is a poor use of language.

Black holes are greedy, they suck up everything in range. Also magnets, those are also racist, they only like metals and only some of those metals.

How do you know that "he" is in fact a he, and not a she. And even if "he" is a he, you don't know that, so why jump to unnecessary conclusions without knowing the whole truth? You clearly didn't try to understand what I wrote, and instead took offense to the English not being his first language statement.

The product has been developed with greedy intentions, and not profitable ones is what I'm saying, however if you're going to make a fuss about the use of language then "English" should be capitalized in your statement. However, on a forum like this, should we really be nit picky? I think not.

And no, English is my first language.

I'm pretty sure it is real:

http://www.istylenews.com/this-fake...r-account-is-fooling-thousands-of-apple-fans/

also if you google "craig federighi twitter" you get hairforceone...
Click to expand...
This literally can't be real though... LOL the insults and shade from that twitter account are insane.. plus I quote from your own link...:

"A Twitter account claiming to be Federighi has been tweeting and retweeting as if it’s Hair Force One himself all week. It has amassed over 12,000 followers in less than two weeks and looks legit at first glance, but don’t be fooled. It’s a fake."

"What’s most telling about it being inauthentic is something that can’t be faked. It doesn’t have the blue verified checkmark from Twitter. Not one of the other Apple execs who have been verified by Twitter follow the account either, including Tim Cook, Angela Ahrendts, Phil Schiller, and Eddy Cue."

WHY WOULD YOU SAY YOU'RE PRETTY SURE IT'S REAL, BUT POST A LINK SAYING IT'S FAKE..???!! LOL DID U EVEN READ UR OWN LINK ARTICLE?!

First: take it easy ;-) I misread this one: "... tweeting and retweeting as if it’s Hair Force One himself all week." I thought they meant that the other account is retweeting from the real one, hair force one. But the missing blue tick is indeed a sign it is fake... sad though, the guy/girl is funny :-D
