Editorial: The new Mac Pro is overkill for nearly everybody, and it hit Apple's own target...
When you actually have the most kick-ass computer, you don't have to say, "Can't innovate my ass".

Actually, there is something new about Apple's upcoming iPhone 7
Thanks, Dan. It shows that you did a lot of research to write this. So many 'writers' just regurgitate other people's articles. Looking forward to your next mega-editorial! btw: the first iPod data cable I remember was Firewire 400, which they abandoned in favor of USB when they made iTunes Windows compatible.

That white 100+ looks exactly like my iPhone 3G did in 2009.

Apple's 'iPhone 8' to replace Touch ID home button with 'function area,' start at $1,000
Like a short version of the new MacBook Touch Bar... including the ability to thumbprint ID anywhere in the function area. Cool!

Honeywell intros Lyric T5 thermostat ready for Apple's HomeKit
Looks like it has a 1970s interface, but for $150, works with HomeKit and if it doesn't send my every move to the Google mothership, I'd consider it strongly.

Supply chain channel check stories hurting skittish investors, enriching Apple's sharehold...
Daniel, I didn't see where you mentioned the biggest reason for the share pullback... they're stopping reporting iPhone sales units in their quarterly results. The analysts are "punishing" them for that. Also, there are some stock pundits that don't believe the buybacks create ANY value for the shareholders. btw: I always look forward to your articles!

Why macOS Mojave requires Metal -- and deprecates OpenGL
Looks like I'm gonna have to upgrade my Mac Pro 5,1 graphics card. I'm running a Radeon HD 7950 3GB. Does anybody know what cards support Metal on my machine? -
New CAD renderings support rumored features of Apple's 'iPhone 7' and '7 Plus'
better water 'resistance', larger battery; no D/A conversion = better audio fidelity. PLUS, no bickering about which end to put the jack!rogifan_new said:
Ok Phil, what's the consumer benefit to getting rid of it?flaneur said:However you interpret it, the headphone jack is a comical wasre of space for the sake of four lousy contacts, which could be handled just as well by the much smaller lightning jack, with 13 contacts to spare, two of which are power.
Its time has passed. Manufacturing of smaller contacts obsolesced it years ago. No self-respecting engineer could tolerate hanging on to it much longer.

Taylor Swift turns to promoting Apple Music's curated playlists in new video ad
This ad falls flat.
