  • Looking back at Steve Jobs's NeXT, Inc -- the most successful failure ever

    Apple's today, the 1 trillions $ company, would be nothing without NeXT's technology. All its success has been possible thanks to NeXT's revolutionary Object Oriented OS. Steve knew it 200%. Few people realise today how advanced this machine was compared to what was on the market. It looked literally from another planet: Microsoft users were still mostly on DOS or Windows 3.1, without networking or on primitive tokenring network (haha), whileNeXT Computers were bringing a UNIX multi user, multi tasking OS with Display Postscript, Object Oriented Libraries, Rapid app development thanks to Interface Builder, which is at the core of Apple's strong app ecosystem today. What a beautiful system it was. It literally changed the course of my life.

  • Apple previews iMac Pro, the most powerful Mac ever built, coming in December

    Don't complain, they told they'll come with a new Mac Pro design, hopefully modular enough. The upcoming iMac Pro is HUGE for All-in-One customers! Do you realize they for the first time put high end desktop's CPU and GPU in an iMac? Up to 18 core / 36 threads Xeon i9 and 22 Teraflops of AMD Vega? I say wow!
