What's Next At Apple

pinqkandi writes "Business 2.0 is running a fascinating article on what might be coming up in Apple's future. Besides speculation, some interesting statistics are included, such as how the iPod should create equal revenue to the Mac for Apple in 2006, if not surpassing it. A good read for the Apple lover or loather."

Apple and Orange

[mirko]

Orange Telecom's motto is "The future is bright, the future is Orange" so, who's right ?

Duplicate!

[Matt Clare]

I read this last week!

http://apple.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=05/03/2 4/ 1638226&tid=3

It's true, Slashdot has turned into another Apple rumour site.

What's next on /.

Next for Apple?

[DavidLeblond]

I imagine they'll just keep doing the same thing over and over again...

Kinda like Slashdot [slashdot.org].

next up a new iApp

[Anonymous Coward]

Next up iKickass. The program that makes people actually think all the schlock they make with garageband and imovie is worth listening to/watching.

[justforaday]

They don't count as a real Apple rumor site until they either receive a C&D or have a lawsuit filed against them...

1. Smugness, release 2.0

Oh, please. Smugness 2.0 was out ages ago. Followed by Smugness X, Smugness '04, and more recently Smugness HD. You really should try to keep up.

What's Next At Apple

[Winckle]

A two-button mouse, perhaps?

[gowen]

I use Apple because it actually works. the fact Apple has designers who actually have a clue about design is just the icing on the cake.

go back to your troll-hole you ignorant twat.

Oh, My bad.

Clearly "slavering fanboy devotion" should have been #1.

And mind your language, or you'll look like a juvenile little fanboy in the midst of throwing all his toys out of the pram.

Re:Duplicate!

[Walkiry]

That's nothing, I just meta-moderated a couple of comments on a "what's next for apple?" story. For a second here I though slashdot had had broken the time barrier and allowed me to meta-moderate comments that had not been made yet!

Not sure if the "First Post!" guys would appretiate it though...

Re:Top 5 : What's Next At Apple

[Anonymous Coward]

Rumor has it, iSmug will be replacing Smugness release 2.0

As paraphrased from my post in the last thread...

[Stick_Fig]

To paraphrase a wise man, myself, who paraphrased a wise man, Steve Jobs [slashdot.org], Why is it that the people who keep posting repeats at Slashdot just don't get it?

Hey, it says "Don't steal music" right on the plastic wrap.

0. profit!

Re:Apple and Orange

[gowen]

Fool. Everyone knows you can't compare Orange and Apple.

Re:next up a new iApp

[hcdejong]

Nah, the people who have Britney Spears under contract have already patented that.

Next...

[krunchyfrog]

and iEye?

How about the iPotty?

[IdJit]

No, wait...MS already beat them to it [unige.ch].

[LumpAuvoirdupois]

A gleaming white, wifi enabled, iPod/Blackberry hybrid running OSX, with a really powerful vibrator built in- and great battery life..

[MullerMn]

What's the differnt between fanboy and twat?

Oooh! I know: most of us wouldn't stick our cocks in a fanboy?
What do I win?

Re:Top 5 : What's Next At Apple

[sharkey]

What do I win?

A one-button mouse!

What's NeXT at Apple?

[Anonymous Coward]

Um, ins't that the company that bought Apple in 1997? Or am I being redundant?

Bad idea

[Ohreally_factor]

Don't even mention the Newton in Steve's presence. He'll kick you in the nuts, pour hot tar into your hair, go over to your house and kill your cat, then piss in your corn flakes, all the while muttering, "Goddamn sugar water salesman."

Microsoft has a monopoly on evil.
This has been proven in a court of law of multiple continents.

Re:Huh?

[Anonymous Coward]

Normal people read Slashdot when they're supposed to be working. I wonder what Slashdot editors do when they're supposed to be reading Slashdot.

Re:Open letter to Steve Jobs

[Bodhammer]

I left money there in euros wrapped in an old black, mock turtleneck sweater.

There next morning, there was a small black cube resembling in size the 2001 obelisk sized like the stonehenge in Spinal Tap.

I tried airsnort but the cube just sits there... Any suggestions?
