Skeptical said: How many people are going to dump their Apple or Intel computers and switch. These comparisons seem to be filler and mainly for informational purposes but has very little practical application. I could be wrong but someone can…

Interesting that a private company is required to tell a weird government agency how many customers it has. Do gas stations have to divulge this information? How about grocery stores?

gatorguy said: I mentioned a few weeks ago to those cheering the DoJ investigating Google that they should understand that Apple's time was also coming. The government's intent is to counter the influence and control exerted by Big Tech, and …

This is Apple's product, not the world's. Apple, like any other company, can determine what features they want on THEIR PRODUCTS without being told what they have to include by politicians. Apple can't tell Norway how to run their country why should…

badmonk said: I find it curious that the farm equipment companies got a pass here as there is a greater need for farmers to get their repairs done in an affordable fashion than millennials and their iPhones. They are running low margin high …

Market dominance. All this means is that people actually want to buy a product from this company. Fair Trade? That's a joke. It simply means companies and countries who can't make things want a piece of the pie from companies and countries that can.…

I'm not trying to make this political but everything is political right now. United HealthCare partners with AARP, which isn't exactly that great of a program for older people. I found an article that discusses their ties adding OptumRx to the trife…

JP234 said: Does anyone still use FireFox? I do on occasion, especially on a Windows PC. As for Apple being forced to allow non-WebKit browsers I think the various corrupt government entities are pandering to lobbying money too much. This …

pulseimages said: So why release the Mac Studio in the first then? To try and pacify Mac Pro users. If I remember correctly, the Mac Studio outperformed the current Intel Mac Pro for much less money. You could build a faster Mac Pro but b…

skippingrock said: It’s all just a way for them to force a back door to the iOS. Has nothing to do with economics. I’ve said the same many times and know first hand what our government is trying to do. I had legal access to a large number…

I think the government is upset because they can't continue the Microsoft monopoly in the federal government. It would be much easier for their IT staff to only have to deal with Microsoft garbage instead of other products. The federal, and probably…

ITGUYINSD said: Annoying Mac thing #23 -- Why do only 5K monitors work with Macs? I mean, literally any 1080p, 2K, 3.5K, 4K or more works and looks great with Windows (using scaling). 1080p on a Mac looks terrible. Everything is too big, fo…

keithw said: The 2023(?) ASi "Mac Pro" must either be able to reach the 166,946 GB5 GPU results either with on-chip GPU cores or by a discrete graphics card like the existing Intel Mac Pro, otherwise, why bother to even release it? Agree.…

Would be nice to see Intel-based Macs added to chart to show price/performance breakdown. Include standard graphics scores plus scores for higher end (expensive) graphics cards. My iMac with AMD Radeon Pro Vega 48 ($450 upgrade, thought it cost more…
