Wrong. Other Apple products filled a global need when the globe needed it.

Name three life-changing, hell I’ll accept three time saving, features this stupid “watch” provides to the world, a world willing to accept.

You can’t because not even Apple is hitching their wagon to this star. Sorry. Apple is now a one trick pony... phones. Their portfolio has fallen flat. All other products they have are flat or in decline. Investors beware.

Ok, I will invest in Apple, and you can invest in Betta News.

The Apple Mac has out-grown the PC market in 35 of the last 36 quarters. . . many times by double digits . . . while the overall PC market has been declining, even including Apple's growth. Apple had 53% of all PC industry profits in the last quarter. You data seems to be lacking in accuracy.

I can’t name three things about the watch. It’ll sell at least 10M units at $500 a pop though. Probably far more, long tail, as companies work out how to monetize it. I’m not buying one because I think it’s kinda lame, but that is only my personal opinion.

You are utterly, utterly wrong, however, about Apple being a one-trick pony with phones. The MacBookPro is the go-to development machine of choice in Silicon Valley. Sure, some people choose a Lenovo with linux, but it’s rare.

Bear in mind that these are people building big, big stuff. It’s my job to make sure they do ... and they like the MBP. That tells you a lot. Never, ever, Windows.

Apple are not going anywhere.
