The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I don't know how he came to that number, but I'd do the switch for $10K in a heartbeat.

I asked my wife that question and she said no without missing a beat. Then she said, for $100,000 I'd think about it.

The reason I have an iPhone is because everyone in my family had one. I was perfectly happy with my android phones, but I couldn't FaceTime with parents or kids, missed out on a decade long family group chat, and generally became known as the old technology curmudgeon. So I finally folded.

Apple is a fortress defended by fanatical acolytes.
