Sounds quite noisy. Why isn't this mentioned? Also, can the green and red lights be turned off? (Think: stealth operation). It would be nice for a drone to use sonar techniques. Then it could also fly itself without bumping into anything.

"...Apple's multinational App Store requires developers adhere to the laws of the territory in which their apps are offered." Then what's the problem? Apple already has a policy of NOT offering certain apps in certain regions (something I disappro…

While they changed the colors to avoid confusion with Lion/iOS6 icons, the icons are immediately familiar and recognizable. They correctly felt not to be influenced by the iOS7 look. (The fact they also kept aqua blue for the Cocoa widgets, either m…

For those who wonder what possible interest Google could have in buying Nest : Simple, they wanted an Android app for the Nest.

Typo !!! With such a well-chosen brandname (which suggest that you can't type correctly on it), I guess they won't be selling too many of these keyboards.

About non-cylindrical extension boxes For external hard disk storage, one could also add a rather flat and wide cylindrical extension chassis and put *that* underneath the MacPro, giving it an appearance not unlike the Cray-1. cf. this Cray-1 pi…

What the new Mac Pro needs is a flat and wide Thunderbolt expansion chassis, designed to sit underneath the MacPro, so that it looks like the Cray-1 (How appropriate, given its number crunching capabilities) ! cf. this [URL=http://www.aphayes.pwp.b…

Until the new desktop version of Pages is able to import documents from the previous (i.e., very recent) Pages version, I won't be using it. This is the second transition where Apple decided that its own apps wouldn't be able to read previous docum…

One more thing. I used to have lots of iChat correspondents. Today I hardly have a few. Every time these people go through a new iOS/OSX/hardware upgrade, something changes, and a lot of iChat users are lost in the process. They used t…

If only Apple wouldn't fragment its iChat/FaceTime ecosystem so badly. For every version of the iPhone/iPad/iPodTouch hardware, of iOS and OSX, different considerations apply (for the user to find out !!!). Why not merge those applications and let…

What AppleTV needs is CEC. Apple will never make an AppleTV that is a (physical) switchbox for all possible data sources that need to connect to your TV set. CEC is a protocol where HDMI devices are allowed to control each other. Customarily, all da…

In reference to the Cray 1 picture in the article I would like to suggest Apple or third parties to manufacture an extension chassis for the MacPro, that would sit comfortably underneath and offer loads of space for Raids, PCI cards and lots of stu…

I don't know about Finder tabs (time will tell), but in Safari, tabs have proven to be quite useful. However, only recently did I discover the tabbed window in XCode 4.x Not only has this feature in XCode vastly improved my productivity, but it al…

I had a dream, where Apple would manufacture an extension chassis for the new MacPro, resembling the base of the Cray one. The cylindrical main unit would just be centered on top of this base and provide for the cooling. Room enough for loads of har…

@Contable Odo : "...Samsung is just grabbing both consumer and media mind share from Apple at an astounding rate while Apple is doing absolutely nothing in retaliation. Sitting back and letting rivals upstage your company is never a wise thing. Appl…

Why is nobody whining about the MacPro not even being mentioned? Has it been put off till "later" this year?
-
The whole controversy would not take place if Apple's AppStore search would blow everyone else away. But it doesn't. Apple's search in such a large collection of apps is fairly lame and, at times, frustrating. Moreover the review/rating section …

What is more bothersome, and not even mentioned in the name, is the myriad of provider-specific broadcast chipsets. CDMA, etc. Hopefully standards will converge, but in the mean time, producing REAL world phones, with chipsets supporting as many net…
