THIS is where you and I differ. I already know that the next BIG thing from Apple will be, well... BIG!
And when it comes to packaging it, it will be BIG, but big with an emphasis on "minimal." I didn't take a
genius to figure this stuff out - or some fake journalism credentials. Just some common sense! While the
next HOT thing from Apple could be any size, the next BIG thing from Apple, will, obviously, be large!
It says it all right there! I'm guessing it will be a Tower. We certainly don't need a BIG iPod. That is what
the Mac SE was - 40MB drive, SuperDrive floppy - and the capacity to hold 10 songs! (5 songs if yours had a 20MB drive).
That was BIG!
Even though.... it was small, it was BIG! And some versions of it were HOT! too! so in that case, Apple's
product was Big & Hot, and sold well! And it proved that 1984 wasn't going to be like 1984!
That had to wait until after 9/11/01 to become 1984!
The real question is... will Apple's next product be........................ inside-out? Now THAT would be unique!
So please... don't push your ignorance of "big products" onto the rest of us. Some of us can read both
between the lines as well as the line itself! Big is the new big! But it's also the old big!
What is the big fricking deal here?!?
