The Apple Business Model
I am a regular reader of an IT magazine called PC Pro which is very good and one of their regular reviewers and contributors who specialises in ‘graphics related’ matters because he runs his own graphics design business up in Scotland, is called Tom Arah.
I have never met Tom though we did once have an exchange of emails on the subject of Wacom drawing tablets and although I ignored his advice at the time, experience will out and in due course, I came to appreciate the points that he was making. Although I don’t take everything he writes as Gospel, when it comes to computer graphics, an area of great interest to me, he is always worth listening to as I did recently on a rather excellent Photoshop plug-in.

Gilbert Adair wrote an article in yesterday’s Independent about him ‘falling out of love with Apple Mac’. I fell about laughing, it provoked a massive response which considering all the really important things in this world was as pathetic as it was funny but to me, not at all surprising, people do love their Totem Poles I guess.
I have written before that the saddest thing about our consumer society is that in retail terms, the iPhone is the most ‘radical product’ to have been produced in the past 10 years – how totally depressing !
