52. Samsung vs. Apple- My take

Is Apple perfect- no but I give them a couple of Kudos. First it is an American company. Most everyone on this site is always complaining about republicans outsourcing. Apple has but at least they are trying to move production back. Apple also employs AMERICANS in their help centers. They have gone solar for their data centers.

They are the innovators. Do you pay a little more sure but t least they are located in America.

Is their operating systems superior for their computers. They sure are. Did they change the phone market- yep.

All Samsung does is copy. We always talk about supporting American companies so what gives.
