Apple ipad, ipod, iphone, itouch, ipay, itablet, ilap?

In an age when technology has focused on being smaller, more compact and more convenient, Apple made the bold move to do the opposite – create a product that is larger and less portable than the average cell phone.

Unfortunately, I found I knew a lot more about business than my professors. One of the businesses that I had started was called Recognition Terminals, formed in 1969, and I’d intuitively used an early version of the Cybernetic Transposition techniques to almost instantly generate the $2.5 million in investment funding that I required.
