Apple stock will fluctuate.

Apple doesn't actually make much, so they're a risky investment, IMHO
(e.g., Qualcomm could extremely easily have put Apple out of business).

Yet Apple is one of the most successful companies out there, so what that
means is that Apple is an incredibly (brilliantly) well run company.

Apple spends almost nothing in R&D costs compared to similar tech
companies, as Apple is basically all marketing and almost no product.

While Apple marketing is (admittedly) brilliant, Apple R&D is horrific.
Apple can't even design a simple modem, for Christ' sake.
Nor integrate it.

In general, all Apple product suck when you compare functionality.
And yet, Apple is hugely successful.

Why?
Marketing works best against a gullible customer base, does it not?

PT Barnum is correct.
You can't make those ungodly profits off of an intelligent customer base.

False.

Apple spends more on R&D than all but a small handful of companies.

How about: people disagree with your assessment of how well they work?
