anymore. It's too expensive so they hire out OEMs. This is basic knowledge of anyone involved in the industry.

Even HP has a laptop manufacturing division, but everyone knows they don't actually make any laptops, certainly not any that are sold. I just had a simple request, find recent any Apple product, open it up, check inside for a "Made by Ireland" chip or part. Take a pic and post it here and this argument is over. The problem is no one has seen it in the last 5-6 years (this is being safe, we could probably go a few more years back). 1999 is a loooong time ago. Some of the major players in the tech industry didn't even exist then. Heck generations come every 3-6 months now in the tech-manufacturing industry. I'm simply saying, is it right to call all these tech companies manufacturers when they simply have the back end chip design and actual manufacturing work done by OEM's/ODM's? Those in the industry don't think so, so why do some Wikipedians disagree? What next? We'll label chocolate makers and chocolatiers interchangeably?

I have more Macs around the house than most people out there, heck I used to help people fix their Macs, but I'd be silly to ignore the labels and think that Apple actually manufactures all the parts except the screws. The days when Apple did that are long gone.

However the lingo shouldn't fool anyone, the last sentence indicates that "substantially all" of their products are pretty much assembled in China with the exception of the Mac Pro's. I owned a couple of Mac Pro's and none of them say they weren't made in some place in Asia. The rest of Apple's line simply says Made in China. Anyone can take a trip to their local Apple store and read the bottom of the boxes and all their devices. So all I see is at best a downplaying of it, like how Coach downplays the fact that their bags are made in China in the same factories that make purses for Target and Walmart. There are hurt feelings here but Wikipedia should not be based on feelings but on fact. So far we've found out that out there is a possibility that Apple may still be manufacturing in Ireland, a facility that Apple calls a manufacturing facility, but oddly no one can find a single Apple product in the last 5-10 years that says Made in Ireland. Even my employer's Apple servers say Made in China, where Apple owns no factories. --<a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/24.193.80.232" title="Special:Contributions/24.193.80.232">24.193.80.232</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:24.193.80.232" title="User talk:24.193.80.232">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-24.193.80.232-2009-04-05T05:11:00.000Z-ZimZalaBim-2009-03-08T03:00:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">05:11, 5 April 2009 (UTC)</a> (I've revised this statement to be clearer)<span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-24.193.80.232-2009-04-05T05:11:00.000Z-ZimZalaBim-2009-03-08T03:00:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-24.193.80.232-2009-04-05T05:11:00.000Z-ZimZalaBim-2009-03-08T03:00:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-24.193.80.232-2009-04-06T14:45:00.000Z-24.193.80.232-2009-04-05T05:11:00.000Z"></span>I emailed the famous iFixit guys (whom take apart new Apple devices all the time) and asked them if they had any parts that were made in Ireland.

Perhaps we might have seen it say... 15-20 years ago but not now. Yeah Apple was once a manufacturer, sure they call that last plant in Cork a manufacturing plant (but only say that final assembly goes on there), but like many other major brands, they currently are not manufacturing anything on their own, its not cost effective to do so. No one can even produce a single picture of any current Apple products in the last 5 years made in Ireland. I can't find it and I've serviced or own an example of almost all of Apple's line including their servers. The only possible part that could be made by Apple right now that I can find is what people call the "DRM Chip" inside the earphones for the new third generation iPod Shuffle. Even then its just a possibility. Same goes for HP and possibly Dell, they don't seem to have any products that they produce themselves either. They all definitely don't produce any laptops. Seriously, I propose simply removing Manufacturer from the HP (laptops specifically), Dell or other pages that don't have any recent evidence of manufacturing anything. None of the layman will notice, and it will appease nearly-OCD sticklers for details like me. --<a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/24.193.80.232" title="Special:Contributions/24.193.80.232">24.193.80.232</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:24.193.80.232" title="User talk:24.193.80.232">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-24.193.80.232-2009-04-21T05:58:00.000Z-Lars_T.-2009-04-07T19:20:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">05:58, 21 April 2009 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-24.193.80.232-2009-04-21T05:58:00.000Z-Lars_T.-2009-04-07T19:20:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-24.193.80.232-2009-04-21T05:58:00.000Z-Lars_T.-2009-04-07T19:20:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Terrillja-2009-04-21T06:13:00.000Z-24.193.80.232-2009-04-21T05:58:00.000Z"></span>So the cnc machines in Apple's HQ, in the US are for what exactly?

You're moving the goalposts and trying to redefine words. It's obvious we mean a manufacturer in that it produces products that they sell to consumers. Otherwise we'd have to call any home inventor a "manufacturer". It's obvious those Apple prototypes are not for sale, and when it comes to the tech field, working prototypes often use parts or are made to order by the OEM/ODM as anyone doing business in China (like Apple) well knows as we can derive from the iPhone prototypes. There is no shame in OEM/ODM-ing all your products. There's only shame when you fake it, which Apple hasn't, don't know why Wikipedia has to do it for them. <i>Again, read the top quotes from the 10k.

The impact on the iMac would not have been as great if it had been a huge 6 colour affair. But there is another reason: cost. All that paint costs money, and as it happens, the colours chosen do not print well in standard 4 colour CYMK printing, so all the early Apple stationery and manuals (at least the covers, internal they were usually black only) were in expensive custom 7 colour printing (6 logo colours plus black for the body text). I can't find an online reference to that, but it's in an Apple book, maybe one of Stephen Levy's, or even perhaps Sculley's <i>Odyssey: from Pepsi to Apple</i>. When Jobs came back, he simplified everything, from the cluttered Mac range down to four simple products: 2 consumer and 2 pro, 2 laptop and 2 desktop which helped take Apple from loss to profit (not that they were that much on their knees still having $1bn in cash, and biggest annual loss was only $250 million odd). The logo was no exception, and monochrome looked very cool against black on the Powerbook, and also on the iMac. The shape was always more important than the colours.</dd></dl> <dl><dd>The PowerBook G3 Series aka Wallstreet released in April 1998 (I have one from new bought 4 days after the opening of the UK Apple Online store - I'd been looking at the 3400, and logged on to the store to discover brand new G3 models) is unique as the first Mac with a monochrome logo (on the lid) and as the last Mac with a 6 colour logo (on the inside above the keyboard on the bottom of the screen).</dd></dl> <dl><dd><a href="/wiki/User:Tony_Spencer" title="User:Tony Spencer">Tony Spencer</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Tony_Spencer" title="User talk:Tony Spencer">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-Tony_Spencer-2008-07-16T00:43:00.000Z-original_post" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:43, 16 July 2008 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Tony_Spencer-2008-07-16T00:43:00.000Z-original_post"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Tony_Spencer-2008-07-16T00:43:00.000Z-original_post"></span></dd></dl> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-64.103.25.233-2009-06-03T20:09:00.000Z-original_post"></span>There is this tale, promoted by <a href="/wiki/Sadie_Plant" title="Sadie Plant">Sadie Plant</a> in her book _Zeroes and Ones_, that the bitten apple logo was a reference to the way <a href="/wiki/Alan_Turing" title="Alan Turing">Alan Turing</a> committed suicide, by eating a bite from an apple that was prepared with cyanide. The rainbow-colored logo was assumed to be a reference to the rainbow flag of the gay community, as Alan Turing was gay himself. Unfortunately for that tale, the rainbow Apple logo was designed by Rob Janoff in 1977, replacing the previous logo graphic of <a href="/wiki/Isaac_Newton" title="Isaac Newton">Isaac Newton</a> under an apple tree. The <a href="/wiki/Rainbow_flag_(LGBT_movement)" class="mw-redirect" title="Rainbow flag (LGBT movement)">rainbow flag</a> was designed later, by Gilbert Baker, in 1978.

Macs are well known for longevity, many companies keeping them for 8 years. My PowerBook G3 Series is still serviceable after 10 years, even though it has been around the world on a 14 month world tour, has a cracked case, the batteries have long died, the screen dimmed a bit, and one power supply burnt out. We have yet to see computers from 2006 match that. Ask again in 8 years time. The odd rogue one is bound to hit people from time to time, and the longer you've been a Mac user, the more that will arrive one day. My PB G3 was nearly declared DOA because the floppy module was bad even though the laptop itself worked fine, because it was so new there were no spares for it, but the engineer checked and there were two floppy modules in country, so I didn't have to get a new one and redo 14 hours of transfering data and installing apps. But in 18 years of working freelance in hundreds of places with Macs, I've only ever encountered one that failed (Classic whose power supply went up in a puff of white smoke).</dd></dl> <dl><dd>I think the perception is bias, both against Made in China (I have the last non-Intel iMac, the G5 iSight, working perfectly 2 and a half years later and Chinese and a 1st gen iPod Nano, also Made in China) and the Intel from the Motorola purists. This has often been said on the Apple web site discussion boards, people only complain, but as many point out, people never post good stuff, you just see the problems there, that's what they are for. It's unverified bias/opinion and should be excluded in its entirety unless it can be backed up with actual data.</dd></dl> <dl><dd><a href="/wiki/User:Tony_Spencer" title="User:Tony Spencer">Tony Spencer</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Tony_Spencer" title="User talk:Tony Spencer">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-Tony_Spencer-2008-07-16T00:59:00.000Z-Adderz91-2008-06-13T17:32:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:59, 16 July 2008 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Tony_Spencer-2008-07-16T00:59:00.000Z-Adderz91-2008-06-13T17:32:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Tony_Spencer-2008-07-16T00:59:00.000Z-Adderz91-2008-06-13T17:32:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-68.102.118.231-2008-07-22T00:35:00.000Z-criticism_section"></span>I haven't noticed a decrease of anything in apple products, they only thing I've noticed is that who ever put the lock on this article is doing a TERRIBLE job of maintaining it (the article)! --<a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/68.102.118.231" title="Special:Contributions/68.102.118.231">68.102.118.231</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:68.102.118.231" title="User talk:68.102.118.231">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-68.102.118.231-2008-07-22T00:35:00.000Z-criticism_section" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:35, 22 July 2008 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-68.102.118.231-2008-07-22T00:35:00.000Z-criticism_section"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-68.102.118.231-2008-07-22T00:35:00.000Z-criticism_section"></span> </p><p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Foxtrot_MGS-2008-07-27T00:06:00.000Z-criticism_section"></span>There has been much speculation and suspicion of extreme over pricing of apple products. When one looks at the hard ware of an average macbook and does some research, it becomes clear that all the components don't warrant the price. While the preloaded OS does represent a percentage of the cost it still seems like too much of a cost. In another example the Microsoft Zune and iPod (while still a quality product) are similar function and while the Zune includes a wifi receiver, FM tuner, and larger screen the price of the iPod can exceed that of the Zune. The price of production of Apple products may in fact be higher then tech experts speculate, but the fact that an Apple notebook can cost over $1,000 while a PC notebook with similar (if not faster) hardware can be as low as $600 begs to differ. There are two possibilities;Apple is pricing their products too high or, for some reason, it costs more to produce a Mac due to unique hardware. <small>—Preceding<a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Signatures" title="Wikipedia:Signatures">unsigned</a> comment added by <a href="/w/index.php?title=User:Foxtrot_MGS&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="User:Foxtrot MGS (page does not exist)">Foxtrot MGS</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Foxtrot_MGS" title="User talk:Foxtrot MGS">talk</a> • <a href="/wiki/Special:Contributions/Foxtrot_MGS" title="Special:Contributions/Foxtrot MGS">contribs</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-Foxtrot_MGS-2008-07-27T00:06:00.000Z-criticism_section" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">00:06, 27 July 2008 (UTC)</a></small><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Foxtrot_MGS-2008-07-27T00:06:00.000Z-criticism_section"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Foxtrot_MGS-2008-07-27T00:06:00.000Z-criticism_section"></span> </p><p><b><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Adderz91-2008-07-28T02:03:00.000Z-criticism_section"></span>PRICE IS NOT LEGITIMATE CRITICISM</b> Pricing is due to a number of factors, and should most definetly NOT be included in the criticism section.

As the European Union is a single market it is anticompetitive to restrict sales based on location and is illegal. Despite this a user in the UK for example cannot buy a track from the German iTunes store. In addition they have kept the prices higher in some countries (UK$DK) without good reason.

I thank you for joining though. </p><p>Ok now do you agree that specific product criticisms should NOT be placed in the Apple Inc article? They have their respective wiki articles. The Apple Inc article should only contain information relating to Apple Inc in general, Macbook Pro criticism should stay on the Macbook Pro page should it not? Not only are they making this article excessively long, but they dont belong here. </p><p>OK next point, i know im terrible with citations. I dont know how to put them in properly, ive written down all the numbers, some articles shouldnt even be referenced. Im going to find out now how to put the citations as little numbers. Currently im putting them as whole words </p><p>I will add more information on what exactly Rev A products are. <a href="/wiki/User:Adderz91" title="User:Adderz91">Adderz91</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Adderz91" title="User talk:Adderz91">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-Adderz91-2008-07-28T06:38:00.000Z-environment_and_Criticism_sections." class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">06:38, 28 July 2008 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Adderz91-2008-07-28T06:38:00.000Z-environment_and_Criticism_sections."></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Adderz91-2008-07-28T06:38:00.000Z-environment_and_Criticism_sections."></span> </p><p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Taftgod-2008-07-28T07:15:00.000Z-environment_and_Criticism_sections."></span>Hey Adderz, had to resubmit this as it took me a while to write.

The section on the DRM alternative is misleading because it makes it seem that the other companies use windows DRM in retaliation to itunes, which doesn't make sense because they do not have the option to follow itunes. The fact about the incompatability of windows DRM is useful, but since there is no source i opted to drop it. <br/> 2. Grammatical issues <br/> 3. iphone issues are probably not relevant even though some criticized apple's decision to go with cingular (not at&t, which should probably be explained if it didn't make this section even more inappropriate). Also, this section references "current" conditions of the iphone, which is relative to the time of writing and not a good habit for wikipedia (unless the date is written). There is a way to jailbreak the iphone right now, and there will never be an "official" way<br/> 4. "forcing owners to pay a premium to apple for the service" is biased and can easily be concluded by the reader at any rate. </p><p>As for merging environmental concerns, i think that it should be merged under another heading, separately from the other criticisms, or not at all. At any rate, an ongoing criticism by environmentalists / Green Peace is extensive enough to warrant a division of some kind.

Longtime Apple consumers have claimed to observe a marked decline in the reliability and durability of the company's computing and iPod lines, particularly since Apple's migration to Intel processors in 2006. The MacBook and MacBook Pro series of laptop computers in particular drew considerable criticism for problems associated with malfunctioning fans, surface discolouration, excessive heat production (up to 80 degrees celsius), and warping cases and batteries, particularly among "revision A" models. The Dublin office of the European Consumer Centre (ECC) consumer body has reported complaints about products made by Apple, many of which relate to an alleged design fault in some Apple laptops that causes the computer to break down after a certain number of computer restarts, usually outside of the company's warranty period. ECC Dublin claims there is a problem with a soldering connection in some well-known Apple products such as laptops and iPods. The existence of AppleDefects.com, a site dedicated solely to the discussion of faults within Apple's product portfolio, would appear to vindicate some of the claims being made.[107][108] Apple has been criticized for post-launch product changes. The iPhone was particularly subject to this criticism after the price of the phone was reduced by $200 just two months after its release, resulting in a flood of complaints to Apple.[110] Apple did however attempt to rectify complaints by offering $100 store credit to early iPhone customers. Apple has been accused of pressuring journalists to release their sources, with regards to leaked information about new Apple products, going as far as filing lawsuits against "John Does".[111] In particular, Apple fought a protracted battle against the Think Secret web site, eventually ending in a settlement that closed the web site but maintained the anonymity of its sources.

By not allowing other companies or individuals to interoperate with its DRM system, Apple prevents competition and divides the market. iTunes does, however, play non-DRM protected music. Apple has been criticized for possible sweatshop conditions in factories in China where contract manufacturers make its iPod.[113] Immediately after the allegations, Apple launched an extensive investigation and worked with their manufacturers to remove all unacceptable conditions.[114] Another common criticism of Apple is that its products are often not user serviceable, instead requiring they be returned to Apple for repairs and upgrades.[citation needed] Typical examples include the batteries in the iPod, iPhone and MacBook Air which are non-user replaceable, and the difficulty of installing simple fixes (e.g. replacing the hard drive) in MacBook Pros.

It's not ready to be dropped in, though, because the references are messed up. Also, the paragraph should be reworked to be more cohesive or there should be bullet points. Any criticism is welcome.

Even if there are sources on the matter it would be hard to prove with increasingly complicated technology. The early adopter abuse seems noteworthy but another example would be helpful. I think that what we have now is necessary for the time being. We need someone with better apple experience to point out another abusive launch. Otherwise the issue is specific to the iphone and thereby not suitable for this article. The bullet-points are great, the revisions are great. I'd say just put it in the official article.

Four areas of particular attention are product and packaging design, responsible manufacturing, energy efficiency, and recycling. Design dictates the quantity of raw materials, type and recyclability of materials, energy consumption required for manufacturing and use, and the ease of recycling. Like other flat panel displays and Apple's displays eliminate more than two pounds of lead, consume up to 80% less energy in sleep mode. Apple plans to completely eliminate the use of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and brominated flame retardants (BFRs) in its products, and arsenic in the glass of flat-panel displays by the end of 2008.[88] <span style="color:#FF0000">The EPA rates Apple Computer highest amongst producers of notebook computers, and fairly well compared to producers of desktop computers and LCD displays.[89] </span> Since 2004, Greenpeace has confronted Apple for not setting a timeline to remove PVC and BFRs, which still exist in recent products such as the iPod nano and MacBook; and for not promoting a global end-of-life take back plan for Apple hardware (although it does within Europe and Japan where this is required by law); as well as for not having reusable components.[90] As of December 2006, Greenpeace ranked Apple last out of ten electronics companies in dealing with toxic substances in their products, mostly due to a lack of relevant documentation and timelines.[91] On May 2, 2007, Steve Jobs released an open letter named A Greener Apple,[92] responding to some of the allegations. In his letter, Jobs stated: In one environmental group’s recent scorecard, Dell, HP and Lenovo all scored higher than Apple because of their plans (or “plans for releasing plans” in the case of HP). Apple claims to be ahead of all of these companies in eliminating toxic chemicals from its products.[92] <span style="color:#FF0000">A study in January 2006 by the United States Environmental Protection Agency found that Apple's hardware compares favorably with that of its major competitors on environmental friendliness.[93] </span> On June 5, 2007, Apple updated their MacBook Pro product line. This hardware update is environmentally notable because LEDs fully replaced cold cathode lamps in the 15 inch MacBook Pro's display backlighting,[94] a first for Apple laptops (the iPod has had LED backlighting since its creation in 2001). This ameliorates Apple's environmental stance, as cold cathode lamps contain mercury, whereas LEDs do not. In addition to the 2007 update, in 2008 Apple released its first MacBook Pro with arsenic free LCD.[95] At the 2007 Macworld Expo, environmentalists such as Greenpeace presented a critique of Apple. Rick Hind, the legislative director of Greenpeace's toxics campaign, said, "(The company) is getting greener, but not green enough." Hind commented further, "The Macbook Air has less toxic PVC plastic and less toxic BFRs, but it could have zero and that would make Apple an eco-leader."[96] Climate Counts, a nonprofit organization dedicated to directing consumers toward the greenest companies, gave Macintosh an 11 points out of a possible 100 which places the company last among electronic corporations. Climate counts also labeled Macintosh with a "stuck icon," and the environmental group added that Macintosh was, "a choice to avoid for the climate conscious consumer."[97] On the other hand, Macintosh CEO Steve Jobs, stated to the environmentalists, "get out of the computer business (and) go save some whales."[96] </p><p><br/> </p><p><br/> </p><p><br/> <span style="color:#FF0000">And here is my proposed rewrite, if youd like to alter it, criticize it, obviously that will be fine. I have deleted the first paragraph as i feel it does not have a neutral point of view. The first sentence says it all "Apple has a track record of being an environmentally conscious company.". The source was taken from Apples own website and therefore not neutral. I have also deleted the excerpt from "The greener Apple" as, again, it is not neutral and taken from Apples own website. Also i dont think it can hold much validty because it states "One environments scorecard" but fails to mention that source. I have changed some paragraphs around. I feel its necessary to group together the criticisms AGAINST Apple first and THEN detail what they have done or "said" in response. I have also added more sources for the Greenpeace paragraph. Just so you know, the Greenpeace scores arent finished yet <br/> <br/> Also something fun to note, two paragraphs BOTH reference the same source, its simply worded differently.

It is a graphical representation of the history of the company and belongs on this page as an illustration. Many articles feature these, because they quickly communicate information and to eliminate it based on the fact a link already exists, or for those who are vision impaired is simply ridiculous, no offense. It would be like not printing pie charts in the USA Today because some of their readers won't be able to read them, or because there is a reference to see more detail on page 15 in the article. Timeline's going back until a greater consensus is reached.

Apple is very clear about capitalization, e.g., "iPod touch"; not "iPod Touch"; iPod nano, not iPod Nano, etc. I can start fixing these, but have to be very cautious about what I change, as changing capitalization breaks links to filenames. I'll start fixing these, but I want to bring it up publically, as I expect, otherwise, some more "senior" editor might take it upon him/herself to go around behind me and "fix" my corrections.

The reference <b>does not specify</b> that "Apple products" are criticised, which is what the article says. "Apple products" include the iPod, iPhone, desktop macs etc. The reference says -- "The depressed economy hurt iPhone and Mac desktop sales <i>but high-end products</i> that are often deemed as overpriced, didn't falter amid decreased consumer spending and a gloomy economy outlook." It clearly specifies <i>high-end products</i> are often deemed overpriced, but no way in the world does it say <i>Apple products</i> per se are deemed overpriced. Furthermore, nowhere does it mention <i>comparison</i> with competitor products. To be accurate and NPOV, that sentence should say no more than "Apple's higher end "pro" computers are often criticised as being overpriced." It is blatant POV to include anything that is not stated in the reference.</dd></dl></dd></dl> <p>I think the quote needs to be struck out. It is an opinion and the writer fails to produce any evidence to support this. Therefore, I would say that it was an unreliable source at best.

It <u>does</u> list Dell's manufacturing locations, including China, but omitting Ireland (My wife and I have identical Dell Latitudes, except mine is assembled in Malaysia and hers in Ireland!). It does lists the location in a separate section and not in the lead. Personally, I think it's lead type information, but if it's at least in the article that's good. On a related subject, the Apple article says, "an American multinational corporation." It's either a single nationality or a multi-nationality, but not both.

Hmmm... I probably have an explanation for all of this. One, you probably have a relatively low resolution screen. Two, there is so much information that it somehow stretches the infobox sideways instead of extending it down. If you have a sandbox, you could put it there and fiddle with the formatting. If not, just ask me and I'll put it in mine. Then we can collaborate and see what can be done. I looked at the raw format of the infobox (by pressing the edit button of course) and all of the letters made my head swim.

I thought the {{no wrap}} template around certain fields was the culprit, but after removing them... nothing changed. Also, since you sort of asked, my resolution is 1360x768.

I have a nice wide screen and a good resolution, but for me the infobox takes up the whole width of the screen (minus the left-hand column menu). The article only begins after the infobox.

In 2009 Apple became the first in the industry to ship all portables, desktops and handhelds free of toxic brominated flame retardants and mercury. In October 2009 Environmental NGOs, Clean Production Action and ChemSec announce Apple as a leader in having successfully banned families of toxic compounds, brominated flame retardants, mercury, arsenic, chlorinated flame retardants, phthalates and PVC. Apple introduces an innovative method by restricting compounds by looking for toxic elements bromine and chlorine. <a rel="nofollow" class="external free"

world over, about these alleged incidents. The Apple, Inc. article should at least make mention of the massive manufacturing facilities that produce just about every modern apple product that has been sold in the last few years. It would make a crude mockery of an 'Encyclopedic article' to have a situation where you deem the de-facto manufacturing wing of an entire company (nay, sector of the economy) to be unworthy of more than a passing mention in the articles on the company. <a href="/w/index.php?title=User:Decora&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="User:Decora (page does not exist)">Decora</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Decora" class="mw-redirect" title="User talk:Decora">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-Decora-2010-05-28T23:28:00.000Z-On_censorship" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">23:28, 28 May 2010 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Decora-2010-05-28T23:28:00.000Z-On_censorship"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Decora-2010-05-28T23:28:00.000Z-On_censorship"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Logo_is_no_longer_correct" data-mw-thread-id="h-Logo_is_no_longer_correct-2010-04-27T15:48:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Logo_is_no_longer_correct-2010-04-27T15:48:00.000Z"></span>Logo is no longer correct<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Logo_is_no_longer_correct-2010-04-27T15:48:00.000Z"></span></h2><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-bar"><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metadata"></div><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-actions"></div></div></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Mineralè-2010-04-27T15:48:00.000Z-Logo_is_no_longer_correct"></span>Apple's current logo is just a black apple.

See the logo on the top left of <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://apple.com">apple.com</a>, for example, which includes a gradient and lighting "streak" like the one we are currently using in the article. The "black" Apple logo is actually a glyph included in many (all?) default Mac fonts:  (if you are using a Mac, at least; otherwise, see <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://hea-www.harvard.edu/~fine/OSX/unicode_apple_logo.html">here</a>). Apple has used the simple black logo glyph in many documents for at least as long as I can remember, dating back even to the time of the multicoloured "rainbow" Apple logo.

As I remarked about provisional/contextual use of a simplified logo in traditional print, the same variations may be used on other marketing materials like packaging, brochures, etc, so I would concede that the hazy distinctions between icon and logo become even more blurred in the nebulous sense of overall branding. But for the record: I still think it's best (ie, simplest) to go with the mirror/glass logo unless and until there is a definitive Apple website page (or reliable third party) stating otherwise. -<small><a href="/wiki/User:PrBeacon" title="User:PrBeacon">PrBeacon</a> <a href="/wiki/User_talk:PrBeacon" title="User talk:PrBeacon">(talk)</a></small> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-PrBeacon-2010-06-15T09:20:00.000Z-Logo_edits_keep_getting_reverted" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">09:20, 15 June 2010 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-PrBeacon-2010-06-15T09:20:00.000Z-Logo_edits_keep_getting_reverted"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-PrBeacon-2010-06-15T09:20:00.000Z-Logo_edits_keep_getting_reverted"></span> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Apple_worth_more_than_Microsoft" data-mw-thread-id="h-Apple_worth_more_than_Microsoft-2010-05-26T22:35:00.000Z"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Apple_worth_more_than_Microsoft-2010-05-26T22:35:00.000Z"></span>Apple worth more than Microsoft<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Apple_worth_more_than_Microsoft-2010-05-26T22:35:00.000Z"></span></h2><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-bar"><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-metadata"></div><div class="ext-discussiontools-init-section-actions"></div></div></div> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Eraserhead1-2010-05-26T22:35:00.000Z-Apple_worth_more_than_Microsoft"></span>See: <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/27/technology/27apple.html">http://www.nytimes.com/2010/05/27/technology/27apple.html</a> </p><p>This should be in the article. -- <a href="/wiki/User:Eraserhead1" title="User:Eraserhead1">Eraserhead1</a> <<a href="/wiki/User_talk:Eraserhead1" title="User talk:Eraserhead1">talk</a>> <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-Eraserhead1-2010-05-26T22:35:00.000Z-Apple_worth_more_than_Microsoft" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">22:35, 26 May 2010 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-Eraserhead1-2010-05-26T22:35:00.000Z-Apple_worth_more_than_Microsoft"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-Eraserhead1-2010-05-26T22:35:00.000Z-Apple_worth_more_than_Microsoft"></span> </p><p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-99.253.207.70-2010-05-28T15:48:00.000Z-Apple_worth_more_than_Microsoft"></span>Yes.

Every operating system has security holes and indeed there is no point numbering them here; it would have very boring both to the writer and the reader. However, the security holes were not my main point, but rather the combination effects of the marketing or reputation that Macs or other Apple products are safe/immune from dangers of malware/viruses etc with the plain fact that they are not. The sources that I have provided verify both the facts that Apple has as many security holes as other operating systems and the existence of a myth that Apple products as "hacker/virus/malware"-proof systems. The only reason that Apple does not have the same reputation as Windows is that the hackers have not started exploiting Apple's vulnerabilities yet. However, as some of the sources provided outline that the false sense of security can create even bigger problems. This effect is almost unique to Apple.</dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>So... so... on my opinion I think it would be very good to insert somewhere in the articles a paragraph or two concerning the wrong impression of security that is given by Apple (and others I guess) in comparison with PCs to its users when in fact it is not. This is either related to the culture section, since this myth is part of the culture the Apple projects, or with the criticism section. I think the later is more appropriate place.</dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd>I will try to write something short and insert it at some point the following days. <a href="/wiki/User:A.Cython" title="User:A.Cython">A.Cython</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:A.Cython" title="User talk:A.Cython">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-A.Cython-2010-06-28T20:31:00.000Z-Eraserhead1-2010-06-28T19:17:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">20:31, 28 June 2010 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-A.Cython-2010-06-28T20:31:00.000Z-Eraserhead1-2010-06-28T19:17:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-A.Cython-2010-06-28T20:31:00.000Z-Eraserhead1-2010-06-28T19:17:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-GoldRenet-2010-07-07T10:00:00.000Z-A.Cython-2010-06-28T20:31:00.000Z"></span>I have read you piece and think it has issues with <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NPOV" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NPOV">WP:NPOV</a>.</dd> <dd>Firts: the title would be better "Allegations of false security projection" instead of "False security projection".</dd> <dd>Second: The piece begins with asserting that Apple advertises its products as being <i>more secure</i> and you refer to an <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3Z386vXrt4">Apple ad on YouTube</a>. But Apple doesn't claim in the ad to be more secure, but to be not susceptible to PC-viruses.</dd> <dd>Third: I searched the <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://search.mcafee.com/search?q=Mac+OS+X&site=us_site.Virus&num=50&sort=date:D:L:d1&output=xml_no_dtd&proxystylesheet=default_frontend_us&client=default_frontend_us&getFields=description&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&filter=0&">McAfee Threat Center Database</a> with the words <i>Mac OS X</i> and got 14 results. 3 of them (Linux/Tored.worm , OSX/Tored/worm and W32/Tored.worm) were Windows viruses and only had the words Mac OS X in their description. That leaves 11 results. Two of them were a PDF-list (File Name Size _31661fcdac82_4c09_872f_4df296f6181f.exe 45,056 ...) from McAfee and another webpage from McAfee (Titled: McAfee Threat Center) and not related to my search. That leaves 9. Another one of them is a macro-script for MS Word for Mac. This only affects MS Word for Mac and can only run within that application and can affect documents opened in it. It doesn't affect the actual Mac OS X-system. That leaves 8. 5 of those 8 are trojans. As you know, trojans have to be installed by the user in order to work. The trojan tries to trick the user into installing it. That leaves still 3. OSX/Cosmac is labeled by McAfee as a program, so it has to be installed and run by the user in order to work. That leaves 2 (OSX/Leap and OSX/Inqtana.a). OSX/Inqtana.a is a proof of concept-virus and therefor never released in the wild, it dates from Februari 2006. That still leaves one: OSX/Leap. McAfee lists it as virus, but there has been controverse about that, with some saying it is a trojan. McAfee itself says the following in their description of OSX/Leap: "Leap requires user interaction in order to infect a machine, as the user receiving an instant message containing the worm will have to extract the executable from the archive and then run as admin. When run, it appears immediately that it is not a harmless jpeg file but in fact a malicious binary file. It runs in command/shell mode calling a terminal session for it to execute. The default message "Welcome to Darwin! " can be seen.". So, Leap requires the user to be an admin user, extract the executable and run it in order to function? Sound more like a trojan to me. But because it is labeled as a virus by McAfee an there was controverse around it, you could say, with some good will, that there has been 1 Mac OS X virus and that it dates from 2006. The security hole has been plugged a long time ago by the way. I have to conclude that if Apple claims not to be susceptible to any virus that there is now in the wild, they are right.</dd> <dd>Fourth:Then you say that criticism over Apple's claims of being <i>more secure</i> (which they don't claim -> see point 1) have risen over the years. Then I find this link to an article on <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://money.cnn.com/2010/06/17/technology/apple_security/">CNN Money</a>. Basically the article claims Apple is the new hackers bulls-eye and the article refers to the stolen e-mailaddresses of AT&T customers that used a dataplan with their iPad. So, let me get this straight: the article suggests hackers are now hacking Apple-products, but then I read the following: "Hacker group Goatse Security was able to obtain 114,000 iPad 3G users' e-mail addresses and iPad SIM card ID numbers from AT&T's (T, Fortune 500) website last week. The vulnerability was on AT&T's site, but any hit against the iPad dings Apple as well." So because AT&T's website has a security leak and gets hacked, Apple's security is somehow hacked? Come on. It goes on by saying there has also been found a security leak in the Safari webbrowser (this is not related to the stolen iPad emails-addresses). Yes, of course a security leak, but Apple has never claimed to be <i>more secure</i> in the ad, it claimed not to be susceptible to PC-viruses. And even if they would claim to be <i>more secure</i>, products can have security leaks. <i>More secure</i> doesn't mean 100% secure.</dd> <dd>Fifth: Another link, this one to <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.theinquirer.net/inquirer/news/1601569/apple-dips-microsoft-security-standards">The Inquirer</a>. One of the first things I read were: "Bastion of smugness": referring to Apple and Apple users. Later I read: "While fanbois love to tout their belief in the superior security of their shiny toys" and "Those Apple faithful who like to point out that their toys are subject to fewer attacks are simply falling into the mistake of thinking that this is because of better security magically put into place by Steve Jobs and his minions." The language in which the article is written is unprofessional and source-unworthy. I consider a Mac to be a useful computer, not "a shiny toy". The fact that you included this article as a source gives a clue about your POV.</dd> <dd>Sixth: Then you write the following: "since every year a significant number of vulnerabilities have being found" and you give sources. The <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://threatpost.com/en_us/blog-list">second source</a>, going to threatpost.com doesn't lead to an article, but that's besides the point. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://blog.washingtonpost.com/securityfix/2006/12/january_2007_month_of_apple_bu.html">Source 1</a> (Washington Post) and <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://news.softpedia.com/news/Apple-Patches-23-Security-Holes-in-Mac-OS-X-Leopard-Snow-Leopard-144694.shtml%7Ctitle=Apple">3</a> (Softpedia) seem to be ok for the given statement, but given that Apple doesn't claim to be <i>more secure</i> in <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M3Z386vXrt4">your source</a> of the first sentence, the statement doesn't make sense.</dd> <dd>Seventh: It goes further: "and at the same time this number is comparable" and you give a source from <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://news.techworld.com/security/1798/mac-os-x-security-myth-exposed/">Techworld</a>, but it concerns an article from 2004. Isn't that a bit old? Mac OS X isn't static, it evolves.</dd> <dd>Eighth: Then it ends with a quote of a security expert working at an anti-virus company. While I have my doubts about the neutrality of opinion of an employee working at an anti-virus company concerning the security of products, it is an opinion that can be included, just like other sources opinions. The problem with the whole piece is that it only gives one POV which to my opinion goes against <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NPOV" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NPOV">WP:NPOV</a>.</dd> <dd>Nineth: In reply to what you write on the page :"And if you do not believe these articles check out below the humongous number of security holes apple had per year (and i only spent 5mins in google). Moreover, if you want to compare the number of security problems that pops up every year (more than 50 per year for Apple) with other operating systems then compare it with OpenBSD, which had 2 since 1997...". Patches to security holes != number of security holes. There can be and probably are more security holes in a product than the number of patches that are issued. It is possible that there are more security leaks in OpenBSD, but that they aren't yet discovered. It can be that OpenBSD is more secure, but it can also be that less people audit OpenBSD-code to discover security leaks that with Mac OS X. All I want to say is that the number of patches/discovered security leaks doesn't equal the true number of security leaks a product has. It depends on a number of factors.</dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd>All taken together, the piece is not neutral. Some things don't make sense, there are bad and low-quality sources and some things can be included as longs as there is also another POV included. One could easily write the opposite, make a header "Praises for Apple" and get a few sources from a few blogs that Apple is the best that ever happened and is secure as hell. But it wouldn't be neutral, just as this isn't. You could prove every POV as there are enough sources/blogs/articles on the internet to prove everything that you want and that's why more POV's must be included and quality of sources has to be higher. The piece is very one-sided written in its POV. <a href="/wiki/User:GoldRenet" title="User:GoldRenet">GoldRenet</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:GoldRenet" title="User talk:GoldRenet">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-GoldRenet-2010-07-07T10:00:00.000Z-A.Cython-2010-06-28T20:31:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">10:00, 7 July 2010 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-GoldRenet-2010-07-07T10:00:00.000Z-A.Cython-2010-06-28T20:31:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-GoldRenet-2010-07-07T10:00:00.000Z-A.Cython-2010-06-28T20:31:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-RN-2010-07-07T13:51:00.000Z-Security"></span>I agree with basically everything GoldRenet (excellent explinations btw) says, and also could point out a few more things if I was more focused on this article, I just restored the link and cleaned up the refs.

I sometimes like to write large letters ;) Sorry if I seemed harsh, it wasn't my intention and certainly not meant ad hominem. However, the thing is that the security of Apple (especially Mac) products and the advertising around it, are very controversial. So if there will be a section about that on the article, it better be well researched and documented with multiple POV's. Also, there are two sides on the security-issue:</dd> <dd>The first is Apple's advertising of the security of their products. If Apple makes false claims and if this is documented on the internet, it should be included in the article. However, in the given ad, I didn't find a false claim. I searched their website (more specifically the <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.apple.com/why-mac/better-os/#viruses">Why You'll Love a Mac</a>-section) and their marketing machine certainly walks a thin line, but they also don't explicitly make false claims, as far as I can tell. Though, if a false claimed is found, there has to be a source that documents and criticises this false claim. As it is now, the sources don't follow the claim, because the claim doesn't exist. There is a disconnect between the source of the first sentence and the sources of the second sentence. If the first sentence would follow its source correctly, we would get this:</dd> <dd>"Apple advertise its products as being non-susceptble to viruses and persuading the public's perspective that there are none for the Mac. However, criticism over Apple misleading the public has been risen over the years since every year a significant number of vulnerabilities have being found, and at the same time this number is comparable with other products such as products from Microsoft."</dd> <dd>But of course, it wouldn't make any sense anymore. Sentence 2 wouldn't follow sentence 1 anymore.</dd> <dd>The second issue around the security of Apple products, are the security features/leaks/shortcomings of the products itself and the technologies behind it. For example, criticism about security features/shortcomings in Mac OS X Snow Leopard or iOS are better fit on their respective pages and not on this general Apple Inc. page. And in fact, on the Snow Leopard, there is a security section with for example criticism about the fact that ASLR security technic isn't yet fully implemented in Snow Leopard.</dd> <dd>I'm neutral on whether to remove the section and place it on the talk page or to leave it there. The advantage of leaving it there would be that everyone who sees it, sees the badge and can contribute on the talk page. However, the section is based on wrong assertions in the beginning. Until or unless someone comes with a documented source that criticises Apple's claims around security in their advertising, the section is rather useless.</dd> <dd>Again, sorry if I seem harsh, it can happen that I don't realise it of myself, and I certainly assume good faith, this is far from vandalism :) <a href="/wiki/User:GoldRenet" title="User:GoldRenet">GoldRenet</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:GoldRenet" title="User talk:GoldRenet">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-GoldRenet-2010-07-07T15:01:00.000Z-RN-2010-07-07T13:51:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">15:01, 7 July 2010 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-GoldRenet-2010-07-07T15:01:00.000Z-RN-2010-07-07T13:51:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-GoldRenet-2010-07-07T15:01:00.000Z-RN-2010-07-07T13:51:00.000Z"></span> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-Eraserhead1-2010-07-07T17:20:00.000Z-GoldRenet-2010-07-07T15:01:00.000Z"></span>@GoldRenet, "That leaves 9.

I do hope that I have provided enough material that show that Apple is not as secure as Apple wants to project. </p> <ul><li><i>"But Apple doesn't claim in the ad to be more secure, but to be not susceptible to PC-viruses."</i> I am sorry but I have feeling this is potato tomato logic... Apple is technically a PC ever since they switched to intel processors. So the distinction between Apple and PC is false. Lie number 1. Moreover, programs that run on PCs i.e. Microsoft Office or Firefox run on Apple as well therefore if a virus hits a particular program on a PC it can also hit an Apple computer as easily. The only difference is the different architecture on the operating system (OS) which might prevent the virus of bringing the whole OS down. But this is in direct conflict with the ad the Apple guy could sneeze as well since some popular programs running on an Apple product are the same as in a PC and therefore equally susceptible. Lie number 2. But this difference in OS is not enough since it does not guarantee any level of security. As some sources above outline, Apple is less susceptible to hacker attacks not because it is more secure (or less susceptible in comparison to PCs) when a hacker attacks but rather there is no hacker interested to attack an Apple product. Here are two quotes, one of which is from a <b>book</b> whose publisher is <a href="/wiki/O%27Reilly_Media" title="O'Reilly Media">O'Reilly Media</a>, Inc. in 2009...

I do not know if Apple crosses the line on legal terms for false claims but on my opinion certainly crossed it in terms of morality, respect, and trust between the company-client relation.

In our case both AT&T <b>and</b> Apple. Let's not hide behind words.</li></ul> <ul><li>You complained about one source being from 2004? What!? All the sources I have provided are from 2004 till June 2010. And the subject I am trying describe is that Apple since it became popular has projected a false image on security! Of course Apple products are not static they evolve... well expect its security problems, which are popping up all these years: 2004, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010. I do not want to ruin your day but the sources increase in numbers as we approach summer 2010. <b>The problem becomes bigger not smaller!</b> Using a parabolic term to describe the issue at hand... <i>Apple effectively devolves</i>.</li></ul> <ul><li>You also complained about a quote from an expert on security working in an anti-virus company. On what grounds the quote I am using is false? That quote does not even say anything about Apple, it is generic (i.e. applied to anyone) and makes sense! He is a bloody expert on his field. What is next. The guy who found 20 security holes that not even Apple knows them has worked in <a href="/wiki/NSA" class="mw-redirect" title="NSA">NSA</a>. Now what is his problem? Worked for the government and thus this is government take over of the free market? They are experts on their field. Please do not take an offence but I will go with their opinion rather yours. Provide an expert to challenge them!</li></ul> <ul><li>Claim about poor sources. It is partially true. I have used mainly news sources and some well respected blogs (from Washington post etc) and one book on security from probably the most respected publisher on computers. Unfortunately, there are not many books that touch this issue, because things change very fast in the technology world. So I used what was available and seemed reliable enough. But all sources bluntly show one thing. Apple is misleading the public on subject of security of its products. Now you want to change the words e.g. not misleading but say the nurture of the lack of awareness, that is fine by me.</li></ul> <ul><li>Finally, please do not get me wrong. I have an iPhone and I admire the impact of Apple on breaking the Windows domination in the market and the public perspective. However, it does not change the fact that most people, who have Apple products, have false sense of security because they are unaware of the security vulnerabilities, which are found at same rate as in other non-Apple products (Windows, Linux etc). I also apologise if my english were poor and maybe to some readers misleading. Any valid criticism is welcome. I will more carefully re-read the comments above and try the following days to improve the paragraph in question.<a href="/wiki/User:A.Cython" title="User:A.Cython">A.Cython</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:A.Cython" title="User talk:A.Cython">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-A.Cython-2010-07-07T17:53:00.000Z-Security" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">17:53, 7 July 2010 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-A.Cython-2010-07-07T17:53:00.000Z-Security"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-A.Cython-2010-07-07T17:53:00.000Z-Security"></span></li></ul> <p><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-A.Cython-2010-07-07T19:26:00.000Z-Security"></span>Ok here is where Apple bluntly claims: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.apple.com/macosx/security/">Mac OS X doesn’t get PC viruses.</a> This is not true. The user GoldRenet has already searched at the McAfree site some viruses that exist at Apple products. Although he claims that is not entirely related Apple products since the <i>Trojan horse</i> is an application rather than on the operating system. But that crazy logic i.e then PCs are also immune from viruses since if you do not have any application running then you not do anything or being infected. If there is at least one virus (unfortunately it is much more than one) that through a program, a corrupt file or other possible way does something that the user does not want on the computer without Apple being able to protect him/her then Apple should advertise <b>Mac OS X <i>does</i> get PC viruses!</b> Moreover, the user GoldRenet only looked for the cases where there is an actual virus infecting Macs with a very specific keyword.

I remembered that there were trojans packaged in pirated iWork copies. I searched the database again with iWork as keyword and got two trojans I think. Unfortunately McAfee doesn't always list Mac OS X as words in the description as targetted platform. The reason I left trojans out was because Apple claimed in the commercial that there were no viruses for Mac. They did not claim that there was no malware for Mac. I follow Mac-related news since a long time, and as far as I know there has only been one item of malware that was described as a virus by an antivirus company, and even that was controversial, see my post above.</dd></dl> <dl><dd>To respond to A.Cython. Your English is excellent ;)</dd> <dd>1: Just like applications, malware has to be written for a specific OS, not purely for a CPU architecture.</dd> <dd>2: You say that there are programs that run on both Macs and PC's. Yes, that is true, but these applications have different versions for each OS. In webbrowsers or plugins there may be cross-OS security leaks, but exploiting this would, as far as I know, still require OS-specific malware. If someone is an expert on this, feel free to contribute. The situation for MS Word for Mac and MS Excel for Mac is specific as there are macro-scripts with malicious intents written for. These scripts can only run in the macro executing environment of MS Excel and Word itself. They can run cross-platform but they can't do anything outside of the application, they can't harm the OS. It runs in a sort of virtual machine within MS Word or Excel. Again, if someone knows more about this, feel free.</dd> <dd>3: You also seem to mix different sorts of malware. Viruses, trojans, macro scripts, etc are all different forms of malware. You began your piece with saying that Apple advertises itself as being more secure and you give an ad as source. In fact, Apple doesn't advertises itself as more secure, it advertises that there are no viruses it is susceptible for. As far as I know there has only been one item (OSX/Leap and it has also a couple of aliases, dates from 2006) of malware for Mac OS X that <i>could</i> be described as a virus. If you know the name of another virus for Mac OS X in the wild (not an alias of OSX/Leap and not a proof of concept), you can give it here.</dd> <dd>4: As for the fact that there are security vulnerabilities for Mac OS X: of course. Apple does not claim (as far as I know) that there are no security vulnerabilities for Mac OS X, it claims that there are no Mac OS X-viruses in the wild that target its platform. And this is where I think you section is wrong. You make Apple claim something they did not say in the ad.</dd> <dd>5: You say: "In essence if there was a hacker, who have built a virus to target Apple products, then the Apple guy will sneeze just like the PC guy in the ad.". Yes, that may be true, but as far as I know there has only been one piece of malware for the Mac that <i>could</i> be described as a virus. And what does Apple claim in the ad you gave: There are no viruses in the wild for which Mac OS X is susceptible.</dd> <dd>6: You say: "I do not know if Apple crosses the line on legal terms for false claims but on my opinion certainly crossed it in terms of morality, respect, and trust between the company-client relation." You know, I completely agree. Apple's claims may be technically correct, but most people don't know the difference between a virus and a trojan and don't know which implications this has on the Mac OS X-platform. Those people think that all malware are called viruses, and so they wrongly think that, seeing the ad, if they buy a Mac they won't be able to get any type of malware.</dd> <dd>7: I am not offended by The Inquirer, because it is their style for all of their articles. But have you looked at the writing of their articles? It is totally unprofessional. I have nothing against the people writing these articles, but they are very unprofessional. Such writing, you would not find in a quality newspaper, and it's quality sources we need. Or are we going to descend in this garbage quality? Again, the quote may come from a true expert, but what he says is the following: Apple isn't as secure as you think. Yes of course, but in the ad you have given, Apple claims something different, they don't claim to be secure, they claim to have no viruses that exploit their platform.</dd> <dd>8: About iPad and AT&T. Yes, indeed, for having 3G on you iPad in the USA, you have to go with AT&T. But consider the following: if you had a computer and the only email-site you can access is Yahoo, will you blame your OS company or Yahoo if there is a security breach in the Yahoo website? This is a tough decision according to me. You have to look at it from both sides.</dd> <dd>9: About the source of 2004. The reason I say it is too old is the following. You first say in your piece that the number of vulnerabilities in Mac OS X are about the same as in Windows. Then, you give a source from 2004. Is this relevant? How many people still use Mac OS X Panther? A more recent article comparing modern OS'es would be more useful. And again, your second sentence in the piece, doesn't follow the beginning sentence as you start from a supposed claim by Apple in an ad. A claim that isn't there, maybe only technically, but this is an encyclopaedia, standards of quality should be high.</dd> <dd>10: I completely agree that Apple doesn't make people aware that, even though there may be no viruses for Mac OS X, there certainly is other malware.</dd> <dd>11: I don't admire any company. I like using Apple products, I admire that people are working hard to make them, but I don't admire the <i>Company</i> Apple itself. Companies are only here to make money.</dd> <dd>12: As I said earlier, a lot of people don't know the difference between a virus and a trojan when watching an Apple ad and therefor get a false perception about security in Apple products. But technically Apple is correct. I agree it is very difficult to make a good, neutral, well documented section about this. But because it is a controversial subject for many people, it has to be a section of high quality.</dd> <dd>13: About the difference between PC's and Macs in getting malware: see points 1 and 2.</dd> <dd>14: The reason why you get more and other results when you type Mac OS in the search field of McAfee, is because you then find viruses written for a version of the classic Mac OS, more precisely: System 1 to 7 and Mac OS 8 and 9. These viruses do not work on Mac OS X as the base of the classic Mac OS and the base of Mac OS X are not the same. Mac OS X is a departure from Mac OS, it is a very different system. By the way, I don't think Apple ever advertised their computers as non-susceptible to existing viruses back in the days of the classic Mac OS when there were viruses in the wild for the classic Mac OS.</dd> <dd>15: The section could have risks becoming too one-sided. Like I said, one could also make a header "Praise for Apple Security", write some fluffy stuff and back it up with some articles and blogs from across the web. One could prove everything with sources from the web.</dd></dl> <dl><dd>I'm certainly not against a section about this, but it has to be neutral and of high quality. One could for example write that although Apple's claim in the ad are largely correct, the public has too little technical knowledge to correctly understand them. The problem is that one has to find good sources to back this up.</dd> <dd>PS: I see that you just wrote some extra, but I'm sorry that I can't reply to that now, as I was also just posting a reply. <a href="/wiki/User:GoldRenet" title="User:GoldRenet">GoldRenet</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:GoldRenet" title="User talk:GoldRenet">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-GoldRenet-2010-07-07T22:25:00.000Z-A.Cython-2010-07-07T22:09:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">22:25, 7 July 2010 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-GoldRenet-2010-07-07T22:25:00.000Z-A.Cython-2010-07-07T22:09:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-GoldRenet-2010-07-07T22:25:00.000Z-A.Cython-2010-07-07T22:09:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl> <dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-GoldRenet-2010-07-07T22:34:00.000Z-A.Cython-2010-07-07T22:09:00.000Z"></span>Ok, luckily it wasn't too much extra :p</dd> <dd>Now, I never disagreed on the fact that Apple products have security vulnerabilities.

Yes. But what is the section about: "Allegations of false security projection". Apple does not claim that it's products do not have vulnerabilities or that it's 100% secure. If Apple advertised that its products are 100% secure and do not have any vulnerabilities, then that would be a false security projection. As long as Apple does not claim that, it isn't any different than products from other companies.</dd> <dd>8. Actually, I can find myself both in your arguments in this as well as in mine :)</dd> <dd>9. As this is a section about allegations of false security projections by Apple, this can only be included if Apple made false claims around its products in 2004 or before. See also (5). This is not a section of the security of Apple products but a section of false advertising of Apple around the security of its products. The security itself of its products is already written about on the Wikipedia articles of some of its products.</dd> <dd>14. As far as I know, Apple has never advertised the classic Mac OS as virus-free. They did however advertise Mac OS X as virus-free. Since 2001, on every Mac you have Mac OS X installed. What did they say in the Get a Mac ad from 2006: buy a Mac and you will have no viruses to deal with. As every new Mac (for years already) came with Mac OS X and not the classic Mac OS, their claim is not false.</dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd>I'd also like to say something about a new source you provided in the section: a <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.mcafee.com/us/local_content/white_papers/threat_center/wp_newappleofmalwareseye_en.pdf">Report from McAfee</a> about Mac OS X security in 2006. On 16 Februari 2006 McAfee reports the existance of the OSX/Leap trojan in its database and handily calls it a virus (which it is not, as OSX/Leap cannot arbitrarely execute and reproduce itself, unless the user launches it and fills in an admin user name and password). Then, on 4 May 2006, McAfee releases a report basically to spread fear among Mac users that they are not safe from viruses; a large part of the report is dedicated to the "virus" OSX/Leap and the proof-of-concept virus OSX/Inqtana.a. The same day, they release their <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.mcafee.com/us/about/press/corporate/2006/20060505_011515_u.html">newest product</a> of antivirus software for Mac OS X, so all these Mac users don't have to be scared anymore after reading the McAfee report. They can now just buy McAfee antivirus for Mac! I find this all very suspicious.</dd> <dd>More so, the report itself is sometimes misleading. For example, the table on page 3 takes Mac OS and Mac OS X viruses together. That would be the same thing as taking Windows and Linux Mint viruses together and make a table of it. It doesn't make any sense. If they had only taken Mac OS X, the table would look like this: a timeline from around 2000 to 2006. Only in 2006 there would be a bar with 2 <i>viruses</i> (actually trojans, but by McAfee labeled as viruses). I also refer to the <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://nybw.businessweek.com/technology/ByteOfTheApple/blog/archives/2006/05/mcafee_stabs_at_mac_security.html">following post</a>: I don't agree with everything in the post, but it has some good criticism, and by the lack of any better sources... And <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.macworld.com/article/49440/2006/02/oompa.html">another article</a> on the opinions around whether OSX/Leap is a virus or a trojan.</dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd>I think the example about Java you now included in the section is a good example. For pointing out that Apple projects falsely around security in connection with this Java-example, you could do something with the following I found on <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.apple.com/why-mac/better-os/#viruses">this page</a>: "When a potential security threat arises, Apple responds <i>quickly</i> by providing software updates and security enhancements you can download automatically and install with a click." Before the Java-sentence you could add a sentence pointing out that Apple advertises to respond quickly when a security threat is discovered. After that sentence, there is the Java-sentence that criticises the slow response of Apple. Although it would technically be incorrect as the advertising page I included came a half year after the criticism, there is not much choice I think because it would be else undoable.</dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd>I will withhold my further comments on the section itself until you think you're done with it ;) Actually, readers should better read the talk page, this discussion is much more informative :p <a href="/wiki/User:GoldRenet" title="User:GoldRenet">GoldRenet</a> (<a href="/wiki/User_talk:GoldRenet" title="User talk:GoldRenet">talk</a>) <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Apple_Inc./Archive_8#c-GoldRenet-2010-07-10T17:00:00.000Z-A.Cython-2010-07-09T16:42:00.000Z" class="ext-discussiontools-init-timestamplink">17:00, 10 July 2010 (UTC)</a><span class="ext-discussiontools-init-replylink-buttons" data-mw-thread-id="c-GoldRenet-2010-07-10T17:00:00.000Z-A.Cython-2010-07-09T16:42:00.000Z"></span><span data-mw-comment-end="c-GoldRenet-2010-07-10T17:00:00.000Z-A.Cython-2010-07-09T16:42:00.000Z"></span></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <p><br/> </p> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="c-A.Cython-2010-07-11T17:48:00.000Z-GoldRenet-2010-07-10T17:00:00.000Z"></span>In reply to above comments: <dl><dd>1.

As far as I know, this is a good source. I don't know whether you were planning to use this source in the section, but if so, I'm not sure whether this is notable enough as (according to the source) a Virtual Machine Based Rootkit appears only to exist in research labs. Your second source does not say what you mean. It says "The use of fake video codecs is a social engineering tactic exclusively used by malware targeting Windows, and seeing it used in a Mac OS X based malware attack proves that successful <b>social engineering approaches</b> remain OS independent." The exploit is not cross-platform, it simply says that exploits using this social engineering approach also exist for Mac OS X. This is not the same as saying that a specific exploit works cross-platform. Just like the phenomenon <i>trojan</i> is not specific to Windows or Mac OS X, that does not mean that each trojan doesn't have to be be written for a specific OS. The description of the trojan in the source says: "OSX/Jahlav-C is a Trojan <b>created for the Mac OS X operating system</b>.". It is not cross-platform.</dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote"><p>5.

I think this perception is partly the result of Apple advertising that is misinterpreted by less technical-knowledgeable people. If Apple advertises its products as virus-free, most people don't understand this does not equal malware-free. Apple knows this and tries to protect the benefits of it. In that, I think <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.macworld.com/article/137267/2008/12/antivirusremoved.html">this source</a> you gave is good as Apple tries here to protect its image as having no malware for its platform. Apple has formulated its statement vaguely enough as to not claim that the security techniques in Mac OS X protect the user against <b>all</b> malware, but it tricks the less technical-knowledgeable reader into thinking that Mac OS X has features that protect against all threats.</dd> <dd>About the McAfee's report: it is not about not <i>liking</i> the report. The timing of McAfee's actions is suspicious and the report contains misleading elements (like the chart that takes Mac OS and Mac OS X together as if it was the same platform). Therefor one could allege McAfee of making false projections of Mac OS X-security. Considering antivirus software for Mac OS X didn't and doesn't sell very well, McAfee had a lot of sales to gain from publishing this report. For all of these elements, I consider the report to be biased and cannot be included. I also didn't mean to include the source I gave (that criticises the McAfee-report) to include in the article, I meant it to point some things out on the talk page. However, and as you suggested, if the report and <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://nybw.businessweek.com/technology/ByteOfTheApple/blog/archives/2006/05/mcafee_stabs_at_mac_security.html">my source</a> are included they can be worked into the section as sentences like these: "A report from McAfee in 2006 showed serious concerns about the safety of Apple Macintoshes.(source) Some criticised the report however (source)."</dd> <dd>About the report from the Swiss Federal Institute: I think this is a good source to include and it would fit nice with the allegation about the slow response of Apple to vulnerabilities.</dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl></dd></dl> <dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><dl><dd><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1244412712"><blockquote class="templatequote"><p>Just because there is no interest by hackers to attack Apple it does not mean Apple cannot get infected by viruses/malware etc. This is not what Apple projects!</p></blockquote> <dl><dd>Yes off course.
