Questions for discussion:

  • Summarize the criticisms levied against Apple? Are they fair?
  • How should investors regard these points when considering investment choices?
  • Does the image of Apple’s products overwhelm its “dark” side of business practice?
  • Is management practice any different than at any other big global corporation?
