Thanks to idiot fanboys like Jack here, Apple can get away with releasing a book like this in the first place.

In the same way they can do this..

Candle that smells just like a brand new Apple Mac launches

not to mention the all important paper bag.

Apple files new patent - for a paper bag
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technolog...r-a-paper-bag/

but hey, it just works.

Apples have made ***** of people like you for years Jack; why else would they be releasing a book like this in the first place and putting it into an Apple patent paper bag.

They might as well throw in some custard pie as a good will token.

Why do you care so much?

It's quite likely a lovely book, Apple design has influenced pretty much every computing device for sale today, it's studied at universities globally and features multiple times in the London Design Museum, that's right not a book but actual products that people pay to look at and be inspired by. We should be proud that the head of design is British.

Yeah but $200-$300 for a picture book!! That's just taking the proverbial!

This is a book of pictures of someone's kitchen table
https://www.waterstones.com/book/kit.../9788862084710

Makes the Apple book seem a bargain.

Not really, you could buy a brand new iPad Mini 2 direct from Apple and view the book on that and still have money spare compared to the large book.

I don't quite understand that. But anyhow, I certainly won't buy it as it's out of my budget and I have no interest in a book of Apple product pictures. That doesn't mean that someone else might and its not like Apple have had to advertise it.

For spastic fanboys like Jack here it's a bargain of the century, like I said thanks to people like him existing is reason Apple can do this in the first place.

Jack, take a bow son for the senior stake holders at Cupertino.

LOL. I don't think it's a bargain, it's obviously not, it's a premium product for those that see the value. Simple.

And wouldn't you know it Samsung have copied them!

Jack lives in a realm of his own, in the mean time I think this bar of soap was made for people like him.




Thailand, amazing place....

You need to see some help Jack, I am amazed you can even get by on a day to day basis, I dont think I have seen such a worshipping fanboy as you.

Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) Rocked With iPhone 7 Fires
https://marketexclusive.com/apple-in...7-fires/37106/

you would think such an awesome company as Apple could release stuff that would be at least safe, eh.

Hope they dont need to do a recall now that would be terrible Jack.
