    Next of kin. -- This is talking about the squential update to the Mac Pros over the current models

    View change. -- I have absolutely no idea, but I bet it has something to do with the Graphics cards

    Float not fly -- MP's are heavy. Deal with it.

    "A little bird told that Trinity shall return, after eating pie, more voluminous than a dolphin..."



    "El Capitan's hamartia shall lead to Trinity's return and its rise to the throne, Its little brother shall rule in the great desert where the dolphins roam."



    "The filling shall reveal a crust made from the Rosetta Stone."



    "When the third sucessor of Artemis shall eat pie in the great desert, Artemis' twin shall rein with the agile Mercury and the obstinate Mercury before being eaten by the goldfish and this shall signal Trinity's return."



    I think our paths may cross here, Grasshopper , let me think about it for a while ...

    So we have:



    n times. = AirPort/iTV

    Speed. = Updated Mac Pro's

    Next of kin. = iMacs to follow soon, or is that MacBook Pro's

    View change = new Monitors



    That is 4 products, 2 in the same family, 2 from outside that product line.

    3...I would say either depending on how you look at it the relationship between the units. If forced to guess I would say a lighter (float) MacBook Pro.



    4. Not sure.

    I don't buy this "European guy" moniker ... you know the language too well. Not just the subjective but the subjunctive. Although you mistake keen for kin, unless you know the language so well that you are exercising James Joyce like wordplay, in which case this reader is duly impressed. I've been reading "Finnegans Wake" all day and this riddle is nearly as obscure ...



    But back to the riddle ...



    1. Has been answered as the N standard for wireless

    2. Has been answered as an 8 core Mac Pro

    3. I'm guess that the next of keen is a fourth display, 17" in size

    4. As for floating, Apple redesigns the monitors so that they float like the old luxor lamp iMac. (Or, second chance guess, the iMac is redesigned to do this.)



    And if I got any of this right, all this Joyce decrypting today has done my brain some good ...
