1. Take off LG badge.
2. Put on Apple badge.
3. Increase price by 50% - themusicalduck, on 01/12/2009, -1/+114Great choice of thumbnail pic there.
- TyrannousDotNet, on 01/12/2009, -1/+113who abbreviates million with mln? isnt it mil?
- TyrannousDotNet, on 01/12/2009, -0/+94Take THAT wind turbines!
- Nauree, on 01/12/2009, -3/+60Why is the picture of a destroyed windmill?
- hadiz, on 01/12/2009, -0/+53I think you had enough room to type out "million"
- republicker, on 01/12/2009, -0/+42Its that wind turbine that was hit by a UFO.
- jordanlgta, on 01/12/2009, -0/+37So the tripods from War of the Worlds are attempting to stop the deal?
- mclaincausey, on 01/12/2009, -1/+36I prefer M, like $500M. SI units people...
- DaffyDuck, on 01/12/2009, -8/+35Lots of badges are either removed or hidden. Are you familiar with how the electronics industry works? An iPhone probably contains components from 10 or more different companies.
- joelav22, on 01/12/2009, -0/+26Wow, and LCD manufacturer is manufacturing LCD's for a company that sells products with LCD's? I'm shocked.
Buried - bman85, on 01/12/2009, -6/+29Did he ever say they did?
- bbtrev, on 01/12/2009, -3/+26No one makes their own LCDs. There are only like 4 large scale makers of LCDs on the planet.[citation needed].
- AgentMull, on 01/12/2009, -3/+254. Profit.
- CNAIF, on 01/12/2009, -1/+21So after the 500 minutes is up what's LG gonna do with Apple?
- ExSlashdotter, on 01/12/2009, -1/+16Apple displays used to be made in part by LG and Samsung (depending on the product you buy). Coincidentally, the same exact panels that you'd get in the Dell "FP" series monitors.
- davidg11, on 01/12/2009, -1/+14What does the turbine eating UFO have to do with LG and Apple?
- jayll, on 01/12/2009, -0/+13i thought it was going to be a 500 minute apple deal
- richlizard24, on 01/12/2009, -1/+13Yeah. Get over it.
- synapzgap, on 01/12/2009, -0/+11I think I'd rather see the (thumbnail) story about the UFO (new spy plane) hitting the wind turbine again.
- shaka999, on 01/12/2009, -6/+16I think you missed the point.
- colinjnk, on 02/25/2009, -2/+11Dugg for old PowerBook, iMac, and PowerMac G4's.
- foofiejnooner, on 01/12/2009, -0/+9You have the ability to edit the title, submit stories much?
- omjeremy, on 01/12/2009, -0/+9I'd have preferred an article to a video about this.
- SouthsideIrish, on 01/12/2009, -2/+10Pioneer buys plasma screen from Panasonic, slaps the Kuro name on it, and increases the price 50%, and you point is what? This happens all of the time, because there are only several manufactures of LCD and Plasma screens. BTW, you are also paying extra for the Pioneer Kuro name on a Sharp LCD,
- sjps220, on 01/12/2009, -1/+8I hope people are aware that you don't HAVE to digg really boring articles, even if they are about Apple.
- cJw314, on 01/12/2009, -0/+6It's the new IWindmill, from Apple... and made by LG.
- ifruit, on 01/12/2009, -0/+6LG makes nice products. It's not like Apple just signed a 500M deal with Audiovox and Magnetbox.
- funkytaco, on 01/12/2009, -0/+6A milli a milli a milli amilli
- PRlME, on 01/12/2009, -0/+6this is the story about the wind turbine:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9mvxrezIk0 - cgomez, on 01/12/2009, -3/+9Communist.
- MichaelCorleone, on 01/12/2009, -0/+5Are they making the wheel too?
- mouthymadness, on 01/12/2009, -0/+5Why is this a big deal? LG has put LCD's in macs for years. My iBook Clamshell has one and so does my PowerBook G3 Pismo.
old... - Zenham, on 01/12/2009, -0/+4@bbtrev: Not true, LG and Samsung make their own LCDs.
- bruuks, on 01/12/2009, -0/+4how does this make the front page, with mln as a short for million, and a thumbnail completely unrelated to the story.
- cuoops, on 01/12/2009, -0/+4little more on it - http://sg.news.yahoo.com/rtrs/20090112/tbs-lgdispl ...
- cornlucas, on 01/12/2009, -0/+3Will somebody please post the article about the UFO destroying a million wind turbines now? I'm more interested in that.
- PabloMac, on 01/12/2009, -0/+3It's a Kennedy NIMBY windmill.
- davidg11, on 01/12/2009, -0/+3Cows have tentacles?
No, sir. That is absurd.
Only UFO's do. - c010rb1indusa, on 01/12/2009, -0/+3Is this even recent. The Apple Store shots were from when they were still selling Power PCs?
- xero69, on 01/12/2009, -0/+3Old footage is old!
News agencies love recycling old footage, it saves them $ and time. I've seen some hilariously old Dell factory assembly line footage on the national news before showing old Pentium II desktops being put together and the older style Dell logo. Funny stuff. - lukas88, on 01/12/2009, -0/+3I thought it was a sperm on a stick
- Elranzer, on 01/13/2009, -1/+4For a while, they were made by Toshiba (and still the same models, at the time, as Dell's versions. Just marked up way more.)
- TehDoctor, on 01/12/2009, -1/+45. Wear obnoxious turtleneck and jeans
6. Get hormone treatment in preparation for sex change - no2gates, on 01/12/2009, -1/+4Maybe that's how the Koreans abbreviate it. Confuses the competition.
- tatewatkins, on 01/12/2009, -1/+4Well i got it and i'm not the quickest person ever, so it works.
- MrSkills, on 01/13/2009, -0/+2Or why not shorten it to, say, "UFO".
- Nephersir7, on 01/13/2009, -0/+220"and 24 iMacs have LG-Philips"panels that were released in 2006
- evisr8r, on 01/12/2009, -0/+2I wonder why they didn't use mil. as the abbreviation for million. Is mln the new reuters official million?
- yacks, on 01/13/2009, -0/+2@lukas88:
It's actually sperm on a lightning rod. -
