I wrote this column before Apple’s purchase of the cooler Beats and announced plain (and sometimes catch-up) updates of its mobile and desktop operating systems at its Wordlwide Developers Conference – and nothing else new. YAWN! Is Apple merely resting on its well-earned laurels, willing to buy instead of create cool, as it enters corporate middle age? I explore the possibility in this DVICE column.
