  • Apple Vision Pro one month review: a new reality is setting in

    “It is a win for Apple in a lot of ways, but look beyond the flashy technology, and you'll find it's just an iPad you strap to your face.”

    Catchy line but total nonsense. You can’t project your MacBook to a 100” virtual screen on your iPad. Or watch a movie on a huge screen… let alone in 3D. You can’t arrange virtual windows all around the room. 

    I could go on but I’m just wondering exactly what he did during those supposedly hundreds of hours using it. Clearly he was not very creative or inquisitive.

  • Apple unveils all new 13-inch MacBook Air with Retina display, Thunderbolt 3 and more

    $1199 Ouch. So what’s the point of the retina MacBook now? No mention of it on stage yet so I assume it’s just getting a spec bump unless Apple is killing it?
    Killing it is a possibility, I’ve never seen one in the wild.   Combine that with the wild popularity of the MBA and you have to wonder what’s the point.  
    How about -- the MacBook is 3/4 pound lighter and an inch narrower than the new MBA? It is totally grab 'n go. Yes, the keyboard is an issue, but version 2 is better than version 1. I was hoping for a version 3 MB with bumped specs and the new keyboard (same as the MBA) .

    I think the real question is, how is the MBA significantly different than the MB Pro 13? Looks like the same screen, about the same thickness, within 0.25 pounds in weight, etc.... and better processor in the MBP for $100 more? What is the advantage for the MBA?
