That's a very good breakdown. Apple will continue to take an iterative approach with services, including Siri. The hardware is where they're making massive leaps right now. I must admit that I'm asking myself "What's the point?" when the world i…

Doesn't the Software Update system rely on Build References to know compatibility? If so, Apple just needs to include those references, and it should work, ya? I'm not calling them "numbers" because they contain letters.

Glad your okay, but after reading this: "I probably would have assumed that a scooter ride was less risky than driving, despite having no seatbelt, no airbag and no other protective gear." Is it safe to assume that you weren't wearing a helmet and…

While I disagree with Apple's argument about "3 different Safari" browsers, I fail to see how Safari could be a gatekeeper. Unlike days past where certain websites only worked with the proprietary MS Internet Explorer, we live in an age of web stand…

I always wonder why I must point out the fact that there is a stark lack of editorial review lately. This sentence leaves me feeling confused... "As is customary for the results, a conference call will follow, hosted by CEO Tim Cook and CFO Luca …

I would have expected Apple to loan them some money, but clearly that wasn't warranted in this case. They didn't trust the developers due to slowness in completing the project. Rarely do we see projects met on budget and on time. I peg that on greed…

Installing on Mac requires HomeBrew. Shame that HomeBrew is getting all of the love, and MacPorts doesn't. MacPorts is vastly easier to use for installing packages! I've used HomeBrew a few times, but always had one problem or another, whereas Mac…

Who is Skydance? What are they known for? Never heard of them before, and that might be part of the problem. Names like "Disney" and "Pixar" are genius in that they are short, sweet, catchy and have a reputation, but now we have "Skydance Animation…

Yes, not only does Apple have high standards for products, but also for itself. We're living in good times. But holy moly, HP, Microsoft and Nvidia only one ONE YEAR left to meet their goals! That's literally impossible with how wasteful and ineff…

I wish my carrier would move me to a current plan that is a lower cost with better value, rather than keeping me grandfathered on my current plan while selling the new plan to customers that enquire. Frustrating when I call in only to find out that…
