Bozo Level DUH Factor, Bryan Ma.

Here’s what’s important: Apple is a great blessing to the tech community. But Apple REQUIRES competition. Every company requires competition! Competition is the father of innovation.

The incredibly sad state of iPad competition does not bode well for the future. I have to wonder WTF the idiotic biznizz community of today has being doing to the plethora of new inventive people arriving with the current generation. My bet is that they are destroying their self-esteem and initiative, just like China: Criminal Nation does to its entire populace. That’s a BAD THING.

FU crap biznizz managers! Go die somewhere and let the next generation take over and get the tech community progressing again. No more Stone Age of Computers. It’s time for the future already!

Agreed. The history books are full of tech companies that had insurmountable leads and no longer exist because they got too complacent or too arrogant.

Just before the iPad was introduced, almost no company wanted to get into the tablet space. In fact, they all swore that the iPad would be a huge failure. Now that the iPad is an incredible success, every company wants to get into the tablet space and push Apple out. It’s really weird how things turn about.

Nothing is insurmountable. To suggest otherwise reeks of hubris — the same flavor of arrogance that MSFT assumed following the release of ‘doze 95.

Apple, now is not the time to rest on your laurels.

Apple’s probably making more money from its smart covers than its nearest rival is from tablet hardware.

What a crock, reminds me of the everybody wins mentality of the US public education system. (and no junior you don’t win by just playing, you need to excel, you have to be your best, “the best”, you have to “win” that’s why they call it winning) But, forgive me, I digress…

According to Brian everybody’s winning! Apple’s lead is insurmountable, but in the net breath it is “Apple’s & samsung’s” market. (WTF? if samsung has more than a single digit share I’ll eat my hat) Well and except that what MS is doing with surface is going to be a winner (WTF? my jaw literally, MS announces vaporware and this clown is already certain it be a competitor??? Shouldn’t we wait till they, -oh I don’t know-… actually build one?) Then he goes on about how great blackberry is and how great their new (app-less) OS is. Are you kidding me? Blackberries window for getting this thing on it’s feet closed 6 mos to a year ago. They have already missed the plane and they aren’t even at the airport parking lot yet)

Why are fools like this given a pulpit, I just don’t get it.
