LurkerJ said: lol, you are funny. "In fact they spend very little on R&D relative to their size when it comes to being one of the leading technology companies ..." Apple spent an estimated $6 billion in R&D in 2015. That's in no way little, so nothing to deny here. Comparing them to other tech companies that spends more doesn't make 6 billion dollars "very little". "Apple was never an innovator in my eyes" The rest of the world objectively disagrees. You have a very narrow minded point of view on innovation. |
Remember in my first post to this very thread I said "relative to size" ...
All that cash yet the sum of their component manufacturer's dwarfs them when it comes to R&D spending ...
It matters not what the world thinks just like how science isn't determined by a consensus ...
Apple did not invent smartphones or tablets, period ...
I must admit though that their very good at streamlining things and capitalizing on other corporations strengths ...
