I agree with the premise that precision can give the false illusion of accuracy and it’s something credible firms try to balance. In this case, with over 200 surveys our policy is to note the “n” number and round to the nearest tenth of a point. Best to let the reader decide. <br /><br />Ian Campbell<br />Chief Executive Officer<br />Nucleus ResearchIan Campbellhttp://www.nucleusresearch.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7107301106676015736.post-53450764164029847102012-03-12T05:02:54.087-04:002012-03-12T05:02:54.087-04:00If you can't handle the heat then stay out of ...If you can't handle the heat then stay out of the kitchen.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7107301106676015736.post-40173426507296606642012-03-11T17:28:26.035-04:002012-03-11T17:28:26.035-04:00Please guys, you Apple fag-boys should just stay o...Please guys, you Apple fag-boys should just stay off this site.

All of those employees can, in turn, buy things and pay their bills. Those purchases and payments go to companies that pay many more employees as well. In fact, because of my purchase, many people were able to afford to eat and pay medical bills in order to survive. There are millions of lives that I have saved for purchasing a product. It goes on and on until I am responsible for the creation of every job and life on the planet! Without me, everyone would be broke or dead.<br /><br />Um....

No respect for them whatsoever. <br /><br />Apple invented NOTHING. They're just sad and boring copycats, marketing whoring company trying to trick stupid to buy their obsolete shit. IDK it's only that maybe some party whores / douchebags dig it, or maybe some sad journalists who only use it as a notepad - BORING... BORING design, BORING hardware. Don't give a shit about those loosers. <br /><br />The only thing that bothers me is that this cancer company good at capitalising on stupidity and some people still believe them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7107301106676015736.post-14883873415380958352012-03-08T16:40:03.586-05:002012-03-08T16:40:03.586-05:00Without Apple's significant business, would i...Without Apple's significant business, would its suppliers (including delivery services) have to lay off some people? Most certainly they would. Downsizing occurs all the time when companies lose major contracts. Just because Apple doesn't cut someone a paycheck directly is no reason to to disregard their contribution to employment overall. The multipliers ridiculed in the article are a perfectly valid tool for capturing this effect.<br /><br />Apple didn't lie about anything. They were very explicit about how the numbers were derived. Haters are always seeking an angle to deny Apple credit where it is due.<br /><br />if Apple were to buy all its supplier companies (thus increasing direct employee count), Haters would instead complain that Apple was too big or something. Nothing short of Apple actually going out of business will ever satisfy a hater.Brettnoreply@blogger.com
