By nickel and dimeing I meant that Apple has many problems that must be addressed simultaneously. I don't see Jobs doing this. He takes one problem and works on it. Take for example the advertising program. Jobs does not know how to attack. An aggressive and I mean an aggressive ad campaign should have been started last year. Instead, we had that "be different" campaign which in my estimation was worse than laughable. I showed the ad which was on the back cover of a magazine to my wife and her comment was "what is it?". The snail ad is good but like the snail it is too slow in developing. We had the snail. Now we should have something like a bar comparison between G3 and Intel or what is extra with Wintel machines is standard with Apple. Someone mentioned Apple had more money than we think. If it does than it should be aware that if you want to make money you have to spend money. A big whopper would be to propose an extended warranty like 30,000 hours or 3 years, whichever comes first. Another sore spot to me and I think it was and still is a big blunder by Apple is the loss of the 800 number for help. Enough said.
