"iPhone X would hurt production merk value & lineup of 2H18 new model if it continues to sell at a lower price after 2H18 new models launch. LoweringiPhone X's price after the 2H18 new models launch would be a negative to product merk value given 3D sensing and OLED display are features of the new light-price model. Additionally, to sell iPhone X at a lower price may have a negative impact on shipments of the new 6.1" LCS iPhones 2H2018. Thus, we estimate iPhone X will reach end-of-life (EOL) around the middle of 2018," the iPhone SE2 is also expected to be released this year in July. The iPhone lineup assumed price should be this way: 6.1-inch iPhone with Face ID should be priced for $649 or $749. 5.8-inch second-generation iPhone X should go for $999, while the 6.5-inch second-generation iPhone X Plus should be sold for $1,099 Apple users should have variety of option to choose from Apple's different phone models with variety of prices.

For the first time, Apple has disclosed that it relies on Google Cloud platform for data storage for its iCloud services. CRN made the disclosure in 2016, but neither Apple nor Google confirmed the report. However, Apple's online document called the iOS Security Guide shows that the California based company indeed uses Google's cloud platform for her iCloud services. Apple in her iOS Security Guide document, for years, has always indicated that her iCloud services were relying on remote data storage systems from Amazon web service, as well as Microsoft Azure. However, the latest documentation doesn't say anything about Microsoft Azure, instead, references are being made to Google Cloud platform.
This update, however, doesn't state whether Apple is using any Google cloud storage services other than core storage of "objects" like photos and videos. Apple didn't make it clear in the document when they started using Google's cloud service. Apple now joins lists of Google's customers such as Paypal, Spotify, Kroger, Snap and hoard of others. In early February, Google CEO Sundar Pichai said Google Cloud platform and G-Suite contributes $1 billion in revenue per quarter. Pichai also said that the number of deals over Google's cloud products has more tripled from 2016 to 2017, hinting Google Cloud Platform as the world fastest growing public cloud provider.

A major security flaw has been discovered in Apple's macOS High Sierra that gives any body access to the system without the need of a password. According to developer Lemi Ergin who discovered the flaw and posted it on Twitter, the flaw allows access to a system running macOS High Sierra without the need for a password. The developer explained that once the user name has been set to 'root', anyone can login with a blank password (the password field would be left blank). However, he went on to explain how to stop this.
Mac users can disable this flaw is to enable the root account on your Mac and then setup a password for it. When this is done, no one would be able to login without the need to password. Apple has made an official statement and has admitted that they are aware of the issue and are working on a fix for it "We are working on a software update to address this issue. In the meantime, setting a root password prevents unauthorized access to your Mac. To enable this the Root User and set a password, please follow the instructions here: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204012.

UPDATE: Apple has rolled out a patch to fix the flaw
More than three decades ago, Apple unveiled the Apple Lisa, the first computer for the work place with a graphical user interface. Apple spent a reported 150 million developing the Lisa but then the computer became a great flop in the market, however, this also set the stage for conflict between CEO John Sculley and cofounder Steve Jobs. According to Business Insider, LISA which stands for Local Integrated System Architecture, will soon be made available in 2018 for free as open source by the Computer History Museum and anyone can try it out, modify and even create something new as it is with other open source operating system such as Linux. The news was announced though the LisaList mailing list for Lisa enthusiasts. The Lisa computer cost $10,000 in 1983; if you factor the inflation, it will cost $24,000. This Lisa operating system was the first OS to bring some advanced features which included protected memory, sophisticated HDD-based OS, etc. However, IBM on the other hand was offering machines that were far cheaper .
Having failed to succeed with the Lisa, Apple launched the Lisa 2 in 1984 which cost half the price of the Lisa 1, but the Lisa 2 failed the same way as its predecessor. Apple later discontinued the Lisa production after launching the Macintosh. To save cash which they would use to pay as tax write-off, in 1989 Apple buried the last 2,700 Lisa computers at landfill in Utah. Despite Lisa not being successful, the Operating system paved way for what became possible on PC at that time -- users could sort individual documents into folders, it required a mouse to operate and also had windows and icons. Lisa operating system was the reason while Apple sued Microsoft over the first version of Windows, with Jobs claiming that Microsoft cofounder Bill Gates stole Lisa's technology. Countering the claim, Bill said "I think it's more like we both had this rich neighbour named Xerox, and i broke into his house to steal the TV set and found out that you had already stolen it."
