tipoo said: I believe this is the same die as the VII, but without one CU disabled, and far more memory/the extra PCI-E/infinity fabric. For anyone wondering if "Vega II" was any different than Vega on 7nm, or a new successor architecture. …

Vermelho said: FLAC support?! It is baked into mac os for a few generations now (play them from finder with preview). Licensing isn't an issue (and they do license dolby atmos etc) ALAC didn't catch on, and has a few minor disadvantages …

douglas bailey said: iPad Mini 2019 has an A12 chip. But I don't know what ANE is and I don't know if it has a True Depth Camera? Also, you didn't mention the new iPad Touch. It surely has the A12. iPod Touch has the A10 Fusion Chip.

JustSomeGuy1 said: Who wrote this?!? It's rife with errors. - Price of the Mac is wrong (correct start price is $5999).- Max RAM is 1.5TB, not 2TB. (Tells us something interesting about the Xeons being used, they're the first M series)- Descr…

bitmod said: Apple missed the mark completely on this... completely. They custom designed a Mac Pro for Pixar... what about the rest of us? FFS... You're not the target market. Buy the iMac Pro or iMac. This is perfect for Logic Pro …

Stunning products. Apple won't go AMD until Zen2+ is out next year and can upgrade iMac/iMac Pro/Mac Pro/Macbook/Macbook Air/Macbook Pro/Mac Mini in one shot. The ultra low power Ryzen Pro APUs with NAVI won't arrive until later this Fall or early S…

iTunes will be the backend haul for everything, while the dedicated apps will be very light based services apps drawing upon the backend provided by iTunes. This way, they can maintain as much of the underpinning code base between Android, Windows a…
