I forgot one product line for my list. . .
- Apple CarPlay. . . adopted by 37 major car makers around the world.
Sorry, you are just so completely wrong.

However, the argument doesnt change the fact that, iPhones are the thing that have elevated Apple to its high profits and big market cap. That might be a good thing right now, but, its not what builds a secure future for the company. iPhones will NOT be forever popular and will not sell in high-volume forever. Apple is trying to diversify in order to not be so dependent on iPhones, but part of their diversification has Apple looking to IBM to rescue the iPad from becoming irrelevant. That Apple admits that they cant play in the enterprise field without help, speaks volumes about how much they themselves feel about their future. IBM is not going to rescue Apple or the iPad. The iPad will continue to sell in decent numbers, but, its in a fading market, and the new market is in hybrids, which Apple is rumored to be entering with the iPad Pro, which means that, Apple will be coming in late to the market, but, with Apples loyal fan-base, the iPad Pro will sell well too, but not because it will be better than any of the competition. You really don't know what you are talking about. You have no clue about business. Rescuing the iPad? The iPad ALREADY has 75% of the Enterprise market and growing. . . because Android is leaky for security, and the apps for their tablets are still basically blown up phone apps. The tablet market only looks like the iPad is being overwhelmed because of large numbers of junk tablets in the under $60 price range. The top tier? No one is making ones that are even challenging the iPad. The competition's tablets are not integrated at all with anything.
I will grant you the large screen sizes. . . but the Androids had to go large to get enough battery life. However, when Apple finally did go large screen, they blew Android sales out of the market.
Im not here to separate you and Apple. Nobody should come between a love thats so strong. I just cant see where people can be so fanatical about a company or a product. Its nonsensical and yucky to me.
You anti-Apple fanatics mistake appreciation for excellent design, great user interface, and software that does just work, for "love" and then convert that appreciation to insults and other such idiocies. YOU are the one who exhibits fanaticism in your repeated attacks on something YOU ARE SIMPLY TOTALLY IGNORANT ABOUT. We are just attempting to educate you. . . but you have a hermetically sealed mind, completely convinced of the superiority of your facts and opinion when you have no facts and your opinion is therefore worthless. . . because you have no experience with what you denigrate.

I didn't set the criteria of "ANY COMPANY ever". A government entity is not ever considered a COMPANY, it is a government agency. Are you that dense????

RE: AT&T is paying a 5.6% dividend.
Well, it’s still in the NYSE, so nothing’s stopping anyone from owning it.
