Apple should stick to building things that normal people DO NOT need.; Reply to this comment

More than a hundre million iPods. Tens of millions of iPhones worldwide. Gaining market share with Mac OS X, notebooks and desktops. Yeah. During the bleakeast recession our lifetime, people all over the world are buying products that they believe they don't "need?"

Good thing you know better than the majority of people on the planet. You must be Warran Buffett.
