Re: No Country For Old Men - Walt and Everyone

Never thought you meant loss to mean cheap, I took loss to mean profit loss. Which I totally disagree with. Which do your think apple makes more on, a seat of FCS2 for $1300 or a MacPro for $3000, my guess is the software. My point is Apple doesn't have to make as much on their software because it pushes their hardware. Apple benefits from their hardware sells because it pushes there software sells.

Same goes for the iTunes store and iPod. If the good was to just sell iPods why not open the format to other online stores, they would sell a lot more iPods. But apple does make money off of the iTunes store, always has, they just had the luxury of not having to make it their only profit stream, Apples model mixes hardware and software, hardware and content.

To use a buzz word Apple's business model is a synergy. the total is much stronger than it's parts, that's why it is a locked systems.

These are just my thoughts and opinion, I too have no access to Apple's books.
