[lbo-talk] Is Iphone mostly white?

Maybe. Black people are not the only ones who will spend money on relatively expensive items. If Apple is writing off blacks or marketing especially to whites, then it would been to me to be making an unwise business decision. Even assuming that Apple is run by rabid racists, which is almost certainly false, it would be crazy of them to walk away from black people's money.
