It's very simple, pundits. Apple never breaks out sales figures to individual models. They are not taking orders for the 5s yet, so they won't release sales figures until then, and it will be a combined total. It's not quite Business 101 (201, may…

The tech media is a steaming pile of geek turds generated mostly by drama seeking man-children. Pretty much end of story right there.

Prediction: Apple: Here's all the new features and more powerful stuff. And this and that and the other thing. Available in a couple weeks. There ya go. Market pundit: The 5s failed to have the holographic, time warping display option …

All this sound and fury leads to the following burning question: What is the correct color of a lens flare? Is it the visual equivalent of one hand clapping or the tree falling in an empty forest? Remember, we do not look at things so …

Possibility Photoshop fiddling suggests "NX20P" NXP Semiconductors makes an NX20P3000 chip package, so this could very well be an ASIC Apple has made.

Manufacturers vary, but the first line is probably the part number and the rest is date code and lot number.

A chip in the voltage path could also be a simple voltage regulator and/or overvoltage/static protection. I'll ignore the "part cost $3.50 therefore the cable costs $3.50 to make" fallacy as that's a long lost battle. Yes, folks, the $3.50 c…

The wailing and gnashing of teeth by the ubergeek set is hilarious as ever. The new dock connector is the End Of Civilized Society, and MicroUSB is ***THE*** perfect and ideal solution for now and FOREVER! Why the Holy European Union demands MicroU…

Wat? But all the ubergeeks on the tech sites told me the iPad was a toy. Are you telling me I can't trust the words of smelly neckbeards with personality disorders? Cory Doctorow said the iPad was the end of all things, oh waily waily. Stallman sa…

The debate over iPhone 5 being a legitimate name is about as useful as Enterprise versus Star Destroyer geek rages. It's Apple's product. They can call it anything they want. If they want to bring the digit in line with a sequential numberin…

Can't say I get it, but I always favor the non-white version of Apple stuff. Like they say, once you go black (iPhone), you never go back. My own two cars are fire engine red and "Windveil Blue" which seemed a bit of a fluffy name for a muscle car…
