sucks, you have fat fingers instead of a precise mouse, drawing is
like using an Etch-a-Sketch. And people love them!

A stock price directly influenced by hype. Apple's bubble will pop. I
love it when RF geeks find out how little you can actually do on an
iPhone compared to Android.

Largest based on stock price. That's a moving target. Apple will rot
someday.

Apple gives theirs away too, but you have to buy an Apple phone to use
it. No thanks. I don't like the tiny box you have to live inside in
order to use it.
