Right-o.
Savings aren’t really that great. A serious investor is going to print the statement for future reference.
Well at least online availability will not involve transport costs to all four corners of the world.
Every little bit helps …
Why, exactly, would one need to print it for future reference? Why not an electronic copy saved onto your computer’s hard drive, and backed up by something like Time Machine? A serious investor who is not technology illiterate sees no need for a lot of paper lying about.
Wow, can’t wait till Greenpeace complains about that.
where is my dividend for christs sake?
by feb 25th apple will have 30 billion on the bank. what do you want to do with it, steve? buy a big company? i don’t think so, apple is all about focus. and don’t tell me you need it to wheater the storm or buy small companies for new technologie. you may need 5 bn for that, not 30.
