Considering that Steve Wozniak often does not spare criticism, even at the expense of his former company Apple, which he founded with Steve Jobs, we probably don't have to speculate for long about how he expressed himself regarding Microsoftu. Wozniak said in an interview with the BBC television station that Ballmer's departure Microsoftu can only benefit because the outgoing CEO MicrosoftSteve Ballmer was not as prominent in his role as CEO as Steve Jobs v Appyou. Microsoft According to Wozniak, he rested on his laurels, which he created through phenomenal success Windows a Office especially in the nineties and failed to respond to the changes that have occurred in the mobile phone and computer markets in recent years.
Moreover, Wozniak's words were confirmed by the market itself, when the shares immediately after the announcement that Ballmer would be leaving his position as CEO within the next twelve months Microsoftu, increased their value by almost ten percent. Apple, which Wozniak founded, on the other hand, praised its flexibility and innovative approach to technology, thanks to which it managed to stay ahead and essentially set the pace in the world of computing technologies. Wozniak also supported Tim Cookand, the current general director or CEO of the company Apple, who celebrated two years in his position during the past weekend.
However, Wozniak did not forget to remind that Samsung is for Apple a really strong opponent and stated: “Samsung has excellent marketing capabilities, they have distribution channels in many markets in which Apple did not work or even does not work now. Pro Apple that will mean a fight. Steve Wozniak is known for using his hundreds of millions of dollars he earned after founding the company in recent years Apple, promotes the Seagway and appears in various lectures or TV shows around the world, in which he likes to give interviews.

This is perhaps the first time that Apple does not criticize. :)
On the other hand, I have to say that Apple it may be the best, but if their services do not work in Europe or in our country, then only one company wins here and will crush the competition, namely Samsung.
Apple TV it is very important that it transmits the image from my Mac/iPhone to the TV, so it can also be used in the Czech Republic/SR, I bought it mainly for that reason :)
Microsoft rested on their laurels? I don't think so. They probably didn't manage to steal anything new. Like before.. :)
to Mira: hh very nicely written, to this day I wonder what they agreed on back then that they Apple sononeHe let go.
So maybe he's not here Apple Store ? Isn't there support like Samsung's? (Official page on FB, where Samsung ČR answers questions and writes news.
SIRI is it not in Czech?
SIRI does it not work 100% in the Czech Republic?
Passbook is useless here?
Are the maps much worse here than in the US? And we don't have 3D models of buildings here at all.
Don't we have iTunes Radio?
There is no LTE. (It's not a fault Apple but it's about how we are cheated)
I could go on.
:D Apple has a different policy. It does not add as many things as Samsung which is in all sectors. You can't expect that from such a small market like ours you can't get the same services as in the US. Rather, you are pointing to Czechs who do not want to learn and are waiting for everything to be in Czech. Passbook works very well, but there is no company that uses it... LTE is here. iTunes radio is supposed to be (while you're complaining about something that's under development). As far as I know, phone support works...
Rather start looking for faults in yourself
Apple it does have a different policy, but considering how big they are, they could support more countries. It's as if the Gods live in the USA and we live here, just to avoid being told.
But Samsung is in South Korea and they don't have it much better there than the Czech Republic.
That's right, why doesn't anyone use Passbook? Prothat not everyone has iPhoneAnd why not? ProIt's expensive. And it has a bigger future here. NFC. It's hard to say if Apple he uses this technology but I don't care. :) anyway, few people will buy the virtual ticket scan terminals.
Cermb0:
that's exactly what happens to me too, I get a great phone, but the phone is great only in the USA, Germany, Franceancnarrow, GB and the like
elsewhere than in the guilds and in Slovakia, we don't even have proper maps, siri is completely trimmed, passbook, apple stores, itunes radio will only be in the US
Army
– why should I find fault with myself, when apple here they deliver the cake without frosting, it's tasty, but in the US it has marzipan frosting, so it's the best there
- at apple it is clearly written on the website that the radio will only be in the USA and they said that too keynote
feel free to look at the things I have ios 6/7 and find out the real availability of the function in SR and CR, you will be surprised how many things are cut
Army:
and not to forget: other restrictions:
– facetime only between ios devices
– imessage only between ios devices
in other words, one has no way to use the new super functions in a world full of shitsungs
I understand FaceTime and iMessage. iOS must have some exclusivity.. But with the others it's misery.
Steve Wozniak has a Polish name and possibly Polish roots. They say you look at it like a Pole at a clock. this fat guy likes to blow his nose and take money for it.
It's a shame.
There is no shame in taking money that anyone offers you for what you do.
Nice Romane. :) I would be interested in the support of the aforementioned Samsung phone and other products of this brand. So far I have not seen people visiting Samsung stores with requests similar to those of Apple. As someone mentioned above, a brick and mortar store as Apple store in the Czech Republic it is not. However, we have several APRs here and whatever product it is Apple, you can always find free support in most APR stores! And I note that APR has nothing to do with Apple storeOn the contrary, the support and functionality of services that Apple offers has not been surpassed by anyone yet. And I believe that the program will set the direction in IT and services. Others will AppThey will just teach and try to get closer to a similar level.
Well, it doesn't have that kind of support even in the US, but at least they have you there Apple Story
SIRI it is true beta but in this state it could easily be another 5 years but at conferences we Apple shows options that cannot be used. Show sports results, order a table at the nearest restaurant, write someone a message (this is not possible because it is not Czech).
Roman: Woz certainly deserves respect and admiration, but the truth is that since Apple II did not bring anything groundbreaking in the world of IT. And you have to admit that sometimes Woz is really stupid. BTW - his fortune is estimated "only" at 100 million, not billion.
Cermbo: Apple store (stones) not even Austria, Hungary, Poland, etc. and Apple it still works there. Calling support is free of charge, if you don't speak English, feel free to write an email in Czech and they will get back to you in Czech.
Siri master the languages spoken by the vast majority of the world's population. The languages of several million nations will come later.
So far, no other manufacturer has the kind of support and availability of services that we have Apple. Not even Google.
Well, even I use Passbook :)
Maybe I could also use a Passbook, always a ticket and so on.. Where exactly do you use it?
I collect Club when shopping in Tescocard points. It's definitely more friendly than carrying a card with me, I always have my phone with me and I don't even have to rummage through my pockets or wallet, and most of all I wanted to try it and people will be amazed :D
Well, that's great, I was recently looking at the Passbook app in App Store but I didn't see Tesco there. I would really like to use Passbook but unfortunately it's not possible here, everywhere else is more like NFC..
Beware, many people think that Passbook is limited to only those Apps.e.g App Store, that's not true. There are also third parties.
Maybe it could be about that. LsA to write a larger article, I believe that there are more ways to use Passbook, you just have to search, but I may be wrong, in any case, at least it should work with Tesco.
First of all, you need to go to this page:
http://makemeapass.azurewebsites.net
Click on Create now: in the Tesco card and fill in the data from the physical card, then an email will arrive and in it directly in iPhone it is possible to use it in Passbook :)
By the way, I think that you can also create your own Passbook cards on that website...
