9. I can agree

it is a good thing IF and a big IF the PR ploy evolves into something with more substance.

Now if Jobs were still at the helm, I would completely doubt it. But with Cook, yes, there is a chance. He is a much more psychological healthy man.

So we will see.

Well, on edit, it seems I was right. This is purely for PR. It is not a significant act. It might cost a little in labor costs which they can easily handle, but it is designed to save them money in the long run, and it is only for the Mac lines which are really nothing to their stock.

So yeah, I stand by what I originally said and we will simply have to agree to disagree.
