No Apple ain't evil as if you make a good product then you should reap the dividend's of it.

Well, I have an Android phone (1plus3), an iPad Pro, and a Windows 10 PC - eclectic or confused, up to you....

Re: Is Apple company evil? If yes how?

I have an android phone and tablet and an Apple Macbook Pro and iMac.

So Apple are not evil. I like the computers but prefer the android OS for mobile use as its more open.

Is Apple company evil?

No more so than Microsoft . . or Google, Amazon, Sky, House of Lords, Planning Inspectors, Traffic Wardens, local kebab shops or even that nice Mrs Miggins who owns the pie shoppe

Re: Is Apple company evil? If yes how?

As far as I'm concerned you make your choice and you pay the money..My reasons for not choosing apple is cost. No one company is evil but also no one company is necessarily more altruistic than another..all have some questionable practices.

Re: Is Apple company evil? If yes how?

Truthspeaker, how about we hear your truth. Your opinion?

Personally, I feel that Apple is no better or worse than any other company. I am an experienced Mac user, and own a Mac Mini, Mac Laptop, iPhone, iPad, a home built PC running Windows 10, and also a Kindle Fire HD Tablet..

Regarding which I prefer, I like the way Apple stuff generally works well together (which was not my experience with a Windows PC and Windows Mobile), but I believe you should pick the right tool for the job. I am a gamer, yet because Macs (even running Windows) are not good gaming machines, I don't play games on the Mac. I do play some games on my iOS devices.

Android, for me, does it's job well, but not quite as well as iOS.

Regarding their corporate practices, I don't believe Apple are any better or worse than any other company. They get more attention from the media because they have a higher profile, but all companies will happily pay their staff the minimum they can get away with, and charge as much as they think customers will pay. Regarding conditions in their factories, I am not defending Apple, but do you really think Samsung, Sony, LG or any of the electronics companies treat their workers any better?

Regarding "price gouging", yes, you do pay more than the price for an equivalent PC, but most PC manufacturers are reporting minimal profits, or even losses, with only the larger companies reporting sustainable profit levels. Maybe PCs are too cheap? The market certainly seems to be crashing.

They dont use a standard USB port, the only reason for doing this is to try and fleece as much money out of customers as possibe
