   What Alan Brown said was each of teh more than a dozen applications   
   (including just charging the phone!) are because of nops, is absurd.   
      
   His claim (without a bit of evidence) that dozens of apps put wasteful do   
   loops (with nops in between, pronounced "no ops") is simply ridiculous.   
      
   Without evidence, he's simply making up excuses for what happened merely   
   because Apple didn't test the defective iPhones under common situations.

   Every crazy excuse you're making without any evidence is ridiculous.   
      
   Apple will slow down the performance of the iPhone 15.   
   It's the only choice Apple has.   
      
   Either Apple will slow down the CPU (but they certainly won't do that).   
   Or they'll slow down the apps running on that CPU (that's what they'll do).   
      
   Both amount to decreased performance.   
      
   But it will be interesting to see how Apple marketing and lawyers write the   
   wording as Apple's prior public "apology" was a Doozy you have to admit.   
      
   My suggestion is for nobody to purchase a defective iPhone 15 until new   
   benchmarks are out so that we can discuss how much Apple slowed it down.
