Let's take a look back at what these Mac blogs were excited about this week, from November 27 - December 3.

THE PERSONAL COMPUTER, look where the U.S. create and lead this..The MICRO-WAVE in your home; created by NASA....The list goes on and on.

WHY? Well, Americans think of the fantasy always. EXAMPLE: You get home carrying bags and you get to the door and most Americans have always that if they can only talk to the door to open, or give it some easy command to open without keys... WHAT HAPPENS NEXT...We get to work and try to make it happen...It get down and then sent around the world where everyone else copies it and mass produce and bring the price down.

BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT EQUATION IN THIS IS THAT THE AMERICAN "HAD THE IDEA OF IMAGINATION TO THINK ABOUT SUCH THING"

All other countries population do not. They live in reality and reality to them is that it is natural that they must open the door with such things and that is that. They stay this way UNTIL WE CREATE THE PRODUCT and it arrives to their countries and if they have the money, purchase it and that is it.

THE BASIC T.V.,,ETC...MUST I REALLY GO ON??

I live in Europe. I have lived in the U.K., Germany, France but most of my time, I have been in the Madrid, Spain.

I have also lived in Asia; S.Korea and Japan.

I can TELL YOU the reason the UNITED STATES IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD IS BECAUSE:

1. WE GET IT!.....We have such IMAGINATIONS of the spirit that is so natural to us, is really strange to other cultures. The IDEA OF GOING TO SPACE, living in space is so UNHUMAN to the majority of the world.

We can imagine it because we did it. And the most important thing, WE DREAMT ABOUT DOING IT..The IDEA OF IMAGINATION is something that is so AMAZING ABOUT THE AMERICAN. Make no mistake, you may think, well don´t these people see things in a 3 or 4 dimensional way, do they question and resolve problems or wait for someone else to tell them what to do?

It is AMAZING! The thought of STAR TREK help give many to get used to using a device in the 1950´s as a phone like that. THE MOBILE PHONE

contin.

THINK PEOPLE the days of talking via a hand-held device like the phone at home is outdated. Most people have a home phone device but that is an industry that is in danger if it does not get with the program and offer a reasonable price video-to-to-(HD) phone device with a high-resolution and a nice sized screen (15-inch).

You get home tell SIRI (the TV voice operating system) to call SHERI and the T.V. makes the call and then she pops up on the screen cristal clear without no movement delays. Almost like watching the news. Once this tech. begins, there is NO LIMIT PEOPLE AND IF YOU LOOK BACK AT OUR PROGRESS OVER 30 YEARS IT HAS BEEN MASSIVE!!!

THE STREAMING AND STREAMS AND CONNECTIONS ARE "ENDLESSSSSSSS!!"" That is the JOBS SECRET but it is quite easy to comprehend. The only problem has been knowledge, time, finance, vision and completion.

Many companies and tech will come out of this and a new wave of high tech gadgets and new money makers is about to be launched and BE DA..MN PROUD....THE IT IS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA...OUR COUNTRY BOYS AND GIRLS WHO ARE KICKING ....A...SS AND TAKING NAMES.....

KUDOS....

JUST THINK ABOUT IT FOR A MOMENT.....

You get home and TALK TO YOUR TV to make calls and talk via your tv and video linked in direct with HD clarit, send messages, dictate meetings, voice and video record home events, etc.

LOOK ALL J-OFFS....LISTEN UP...

I have read many of your rants on this site; Apple, Jobs, the competition, etc. but NOBODY has not put that aside and really talked about the userability of the devices being LINKED TOGETHER in such a unified manner!

The idea of having total connection and integration with ALL your DEVICES and synergize that even to your T.V.? Remember, your T.V. can now be used a a forwarding device, not only a viewing programmed device.

The T.V. will not only be an entertainment device, it will be a massive tablet that will enable you to carrying out the same functions but once you arrive home, it automatically streams to you TV. and do all operations and more by you BIG SCREEN!

By Apple invoking SIRI, and once it has had some time on the market (2 years), other makers and challengers out there will make their own and the basic price within (4 years), will begin to drop fast and settle at a premium price but not 2 times expensive. Maybe 1.3-4 times.

FORGET THE ATTACKS and CONCENTRATE ON HOW THESE COMPANIES ARE ADVANCING US...AWESOME NO MATTER WHAT YOU SAY.....

Will it cost and so on....H.E.LLL YES and it da.mn well should because in the end we will always be advancing and get better. EVOLUTION 101.

I do not know why people get all heated up by the Apple vs. All Others debate. There are benefits to having full control of entire product line - and there are drawbacks. Do not think for a minute that other products are not just as limited in deciding what or where third party products go - will it have Amazon Prime - Streaming ability? Will they allow iTunes on an Android? etc etc.

That fact is that integration will be beneficial in certain ways, and another system will have its advantages. Remember the DOJ vs. MS case? I know for personal experience how Microsoft was ruthless to the hardware mfgs - and dictated every aspect of the system. Apple is great for providing quality products that are integrated. If you dont like it - dont buy it. However, for the general consumer, Apple provides a very good experience. Believe me, Google is no saint.

From what I've heard, Apple portable devices beat everyone on battery usage, and not much else.

yeah because why include 4G in an iphone4 or an iphone4s when you can just wait (leeching more money from fanbois) for an iphone5, which will have ipad2.5 guts in it. So cute how people like captainoblivious get all teet-happy when Apple shows their bre@sts.

Oh I see now, Apple is going to forgo charging people for buying their next trivial upgrade out of respect for Steve Jobs. Apple wants to show Google (Jobs's Enemy) that a good company does not have to take advantage of its loyal customers (Fiends), the same way Google does with its search engine, and maps programs............. oh wait we are talking about Apple who pulls in more money than the U.S. government in some fiscal quarters, so disregard the above statement.

I can't wait for the PC heads to start screaming that Apple didn't create any of these...it was Samsung, or Google, or Microsoft...

Just ordered a Samsung with larger screen, faster processor, 4G, tops every spec of the Iphone for under 180 Bucks from Wallmart with unlimited use for 35/mo. - no contract. Faster processor and network access,, see youtube test comparrisons...

Iphone is good, this is as good or better per evaluators.
