Apple anticipated to secure 80% of ARM-based laptop market in 2021
applguy said:So Apple is only going to sell 750M worth of Arm based laptops in 2021??? That sounds really, really wrong considering annual Mac sales are in the 30B range. At those estimates Apple Arm laptops are less than 3% of Mac sales.
The article probably should have clarified that as I am sure that is just a guess and we would not know how much Apple would charge itself. -
How Apple Silicon Macs can supercharge computing in the 2020s
CNYMacUser said:jcc said:This article paints a too rosy picture of the transition. The fact of the matter is that moving away from x86 will end Mac’s “best of both worlds” status. That means no more running Windows software.There, now you have met someone that needs and wants too. I have dedicated software that I occasionally use that required a Windows based experience, but I prefer a Mac. So I either spin up Bootcamp or Parallel to run Windows to run the software when needed.So again, Hi... -
Apple facing new $5.5 billion App Store antitrust lawsuit in the Netherlands

If some other individual, entity or company can develop a better smart phone I would be more than interested in considering buying it but until then I want the best phone available which is an iPhone. Don’t penalize Apple or me for owning an iPhone.

iPhone 13 Pro & iPhone 13 Pro Max review: Exceptional phones but the Pro Max underwhelms
Sorry but the Max line is still where my money goes. I don’t care about widget or icon size. As I put all my apps in folders, an extra row is not a criteria that I am concerned with.For me and my large hands, it is the feel and the large screen size, while being pocketable. The new IPad Mini does seem enticing to go to a two device system, but I want an all in one device for my daily driver. -
Simply Mac bankruptcy: Who to call, what happened, and why
Apple wants $600 to replace the battery in my MBP (late 2016). There’s no reason why memory and storage can’t be plug and play as it used to be.

Inexpensive 'Apple Watch SE' may arrive at Apple's 'Time Flies' event

Apple supply chain readying for third quarter 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro release
dope_ahmine said:anome said:I'm a bit worried about the talk of SD and HDMI, as I personally think going all USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 was an improvement. I think, though, if they do go with a new MagSafe power connection, there may be potential to put these ports, plus Ethernet and some other stuff, on the power brick, as currently done for Ethernet on the new iMacs. Of course, I'm sure this will be very unpopular, but I'd rather see them do that than put more large, and structurally compromising holes in the side of the MBP's chassis.
Hell, they could put all ports on the brick, and just have the MagSafe on the MBP itself. I mean, that would be going a bit far, but it does improve the structural integrity of the unit.As the current arrangement does not offer IO without a 3rd party dock, you are not loosing anything but rather gaining a great addition when stationary.As for the IO options, adding a SD card is way too late and a micro sd slot maybe but a full size slot is old school tech. The HDMI would be okay, but just buy a usb-c to hdmi cable. It’s not like you don’t need the cable anyway.To me adding the micro sd card slot would be nice, but I would rather have 4-6 usb-c ports. For the love of the almighty, no freaking usb-a ports…just buy the new cable. A mag safe port could be okay but I always charge my MBP 15 via a slow usb-c on the go. So I would not use it as I hate carrying the brick. -
