They don't have a TRADEmark, just some mark. I read it also on macrumors.com but I can't find the article now..

That's the (awesome) point: they sue Apple because they have a name and a logo! I think if your business is so tightly connected with your name, you should *at least* bother to trademark it, not just have someone design you a logo (unless you're used to it in USA, I hope not)

Mac OS X's future is on high end workstations, targeting the professional and power user markets. Apple's consumer strategy will be centered on iOS.

+1

Don't think they just spent countless man hours to develop a brand new Final Cut suite to throw away it all some weeks later. iOS for the win, but on *lower* devices, the most advanced Unix-based S.O. on *higher* devices. From a certain point of view *everything* is a device.

I had to work with them setting up some resources while working for a major adult website, as far as I can tell they just had talks with a lot of people in that community (450K+ people) about why they like and don't like. Don't know if this qualify as 'methodology' but at least they bother to talk with actual people and their approach was quite professional and scientific (given their public talks at least). Apart from that I'm just happy those hours setting up blogs had a reason :-)

Immoral perhaps, but no.

What's exactly immoral in helping musical lobbies struggle to maintain their golden ass(ets) instead of letting people choose to - actually - support their favourite artists directly (i.e.: merchandise, digital releases, live shows and so on) ?!? It works - ask Radiohead and Nine Inch Nails to name a few - and sure they won't miss their legacy major. It also have a nice side effect: more lawyers on child porn users instead of 10-years-old "copyright infringers" as it should be in a normal place.
