Apple introduces really good new products and the stock price drops?

Apple didn't announce the iPhone 8, which for Wall Street is all they were looking for. Of course such an announcement would have been highly stupid on Apple's part. Announcing a new iPhone in June for release in September would KILL all iPhone sales for the summer. Look for the iPhone 8 (or what ever they will be calling it) in Mid-August, the traditional time for such an announcement.

For Wall Street, the only thing that counts is iPhone, iPhone, iPhone. . . and then iPhone.

I am considering a full system upgrade in the next year, especially once the Intel Optane starts shipping. I've kept to Win xx systems at home due to inertia, but may take a leap in a different direction with these new announcements.

One thought - can an iPad Pro replace my need for a desktop? It will require a lot of learning new apps on my part but that time may have come.

I buy my Intel systems bleeding edge (except for the OS), and always look for F@H compatibility. Not sure if F@H can work on an A10x processor - but could it work inside a browser, folding away?

In all fairness, I spend almost as much on a new PC as I would buying a new Mac. Being in the business, I would never expect a five year old PC to be functional if I didn't buy high end.

So the choice will probably come down to which OS I want to use - Win, OS/X or IOS, or which combination at one time.
