Tim Bajarin seems to be all over the place posting things about Apple. I found this via MacDailyNews (motto: There is no such thing as a moderated flame war)

He thinks Apple might disrupt the TV industry as well as the automotive, wrist watch, and appliance industries.

The whole post is here, and it’s an interesting read. He seems to think that Apple products are pretty good, that they have a sustainable corporate culture (even without Master Jobst Fimil), and that they probably won’t fritter away the war chest they amassed over the last 15 years.

He seems to be something of a fanboy, what with the adherence to observable reality and verifiable facts and all.

He didn’t get to all the industries I expect Apple to disrupt, though.

First, Apple could forever change the fast food industry:

You’re in the car, you call out to your iPhone 4S, “I need an extra large helping of carbs and lard and big paper cup full of iced carbonated chemicals.”

The voice in your phone replies, “There is a Burger Clown three blocks ahead on the left.” As you drive, Siri orders a Triple Guilt-burger with bacon and cheese, mega-size starch fries, and a large diet chemical cocktail.

While you continue to drive, Zach puts three patties of beef, three slices of pasteurized process American cheese-like substance, two halves of a slice of thinly sliced bacon, a bit of lettuce, a three-micron thick slice of tomato, one kosher dill chip (crinkle cut) exactly in the center, and a largish squirt of special sauce (ketchup) on a fluffy white-bread bun. He then wraps it in foil and put it under the infrared heat lamp so it can immediately start melding into a cohesive homogenous lump. Then he fits some carbonated chemicals around the – already melting – ice cubes in a large paper cup.

When you arrive at Burger Clown you drive directly to the delivery window, the Near Field Communication software charges the purchase to your Apple ID and tells Zach you’re there. He scoops a pile of starch fries into a container and puts it all into one bag and the bag goes into the delivery window just as you arrive, so all you have to do is grab it.

At no point in this process will a teenage person with neck tattoos and more piercings than your grandpa’s fishing hat tell you to “Have a good one.”

The cookware industry is ripe for the picking. This one’s a no brainer. Apple already knows how to make batteries get hotter than jalapeño horseradish in hell. All they have to do is figure out how to regulate that, build it into pots and pans, and put the controls in the Remote app. You don’t need a stove, just an Apple Hot Pan.

Finally, Apple could revolutionize the airline industry. How? Easy. Buy an airline and make it not suck like an ingenue in a roomful of producers.

On an unrelated note: Android sucks.
