melgross said: Ok, so I ordered one right after I saw the video about Apple introing two new products on Yahoo business. Since I buy a new one every year, it really was a no brainer. the one thing I find interesting, it that the SoC is calle…

CheeseFreeze said: $349 for a keyboard with trackpad is an insult. This is why I have a hard time buying Apple products anymore. The only Apple product that I have right now is an iPhone. By the time you buy an iPad with a decent amou…

After reading through all the comments here I really don’t think people grasp the poor state of affairs in Mac land. I left the Mac world 2 years ago now for a variety of reasons from port support, over priced hardware and hardware designed to meet…

Intel can’t even match AMD these days. The performance difference in some areas is staggering. hodar said: If history is any indicator, Apple lead the way to PowerPC with 3 distinct models, the base model was internally called Galileo, the…

winston2010 said: If I were Apple, I would make a x86 instructions compatible processor with ARM core. Modern Intel processors used the same technique with RISC-like core and x86 microcode. This way, no transition issues, if not 100% compat…

rob53 said: I keep seeing people complaining about the single core speed because “most apps only use a single core” so is there any way Apple could come up with a 4-5Ghz CPU? How much does it cost Apple to add more cores? Could they add a s…

Nice! Probably a sign of the times. We might get the new Macs this way.

This is a very interesting point from somebody with a mixed record. However we can skip the record and consider thing that have been reported elsewhere. The most interesting thing I’ve seen is that TSMC is going into mass production of 5nm in Ap…

Call me what you want but nothing about Apple “service” impresses me over the last 5 years or so. The idea that Apple has competent people in the stores and service centers is really a hold over from what people got a decade ago. For the most p…

Well this sucks! I really hope that Apple gives AMD some design wins. In most cases these days AMD offers vastly better performance at lower power levels. Plus there are far fewer mitigation’s to deal with. As for ARM based Macs I’d really …
