Amazon’s Kindle Fire tablets have been some of the best competition to the iPad, mostly because they’re cheap but come with good software. It seems like Amazon would sell the Kindle for as cheap as possible if it meant taking a slice of Apple’s pie.

Earlier this morning, a rumor was floated by TechCrunch that Amazon is making a $ 99 tablet to compete with the iPad mini. It sounded crazy at  [Read More...]

There was a time when companies feared going into negotiations with Apple. When Steve Jobs walked into a meeting, he demanded that your company bend to his every whim, or he’d walk away.

Now that Steve’s gone, other companies have noticed that Apple is actually a lot easier to deal with. At least, that’s the observation from France Telecom-Orange CEO, Stephane Richard, who thinks Apple’s not as arrogant as they used to  [Read More...]

Steve Jobs unveiling the iMac G4 at Macworld 2002

The 2002 iMac G4 is one of our favorite Apple products ever. It had a dramatic design that no one had ever tried by emulating the sunflowers growing in Steve Jobs’ backyard.

Apple discontinued the iMac G4 in 2004, but thanks to Apple’s solid build quality and engineering, a herd of over 1,300 iMac G4′s have lasted a full decade in the service  [Read More...]

Google just announced its earnings for Q4 2012, and guess what? They made a ton of money. We’re shocked.

Actually, Q4 2012 was really great for Google. The company earned $ 14.4 billion in revenue, which is 36% better than what they did last year. While we tend to think of Google as an American company, only $ 5.99 billion of that revenue came from the U.S. while the rest was made in international markets.
