# Apple + Developers = Earnings
|
|
*January 2009*
|
|
|
|
**Apple, Inc** reported their [highest earnings ever](http://www.businessweek.com/technology/ByteOfTheApple/blog/archives/2009/10/apple_stock_hit.html) today.
|
|
|
|
But, Why? Because they have proven that thoughtful design and attention to every minute detail will always win in the end.
|
|
|
|
Because they have shown that designing with both developers and users equally in mind is essential.
|
|
|
|
Because they noticed that being remarkable isn't about being the go-to guy all the time.
|
|
|
|
Because they realized that it's okay to do not have the biggest market share.
|
|
|
|
Because they realized there is a balance. And they found it.
|
|
|
|
Because they make the best laptops around.
|
|
|
|
Because they lead a tribe of people.
|
|
|
|
So, Congratulations Apple.
|
|
|
|
You deserve it.
|
|
|
|
Really.
|
|
