I just ordered a Backbone One for my son. It will be a good opportunity to try out Game Pass. He doesn’t play as many online shooters anymore so I don’t think a little lag with Jedi Fallen Order or the Halo single player campaigns will be that big a…

If Apple offers this it will be essentially a “desktop” iPad aimed at artist studios, designers, architects, etc.

I’ve got news for all of you who think that seeing “butts in chairs” is the best metric of productivity: It isn’t. If you don’t have a way of telling if someone is productive remotely, then you don’t have a way of telling if they are productive in t…

I’m a Goodnotes fanatic when it comes to note taking on my iPad Pro. The fact it can search all of my handwritten copy simultaneously with any embedded text is amazing. But it is the fact that it is on my iPad that makes the notes apps so valuable. …

I don’t understand anyone ever loving this place. Yes they had a good selection of movies, games, and electronics. (I actually think digital downloads and streaming may have done more to kill Fry’s than Amazon.) But the service was the worst, the wa…

In the case of cars, I’d say that Tesla was the disruptor in the automobile space. (You don’t have to like Tesla cars or Elon Musk to see that this is true.) About the only thing that could possibly disrupt automobiles more than Tesla has already do…

My first thought when I heard the Hyundai/Kia deal fell through was that Nissan might be a good substitute for Apple. That is because they are a solid manufacturer that has been struggling lately due to some bad business decisions and scandals. It s…

Leaving the Labodet price aside, I like the arrangement of the multiple card pockets and the fact that the pockets are shorter, which should make it easier to get the cards out of the wallet. Regarding the Apple wallet: I had expected to use it on …

The return of function keys could happen while keeping the Touch Bar for those of us who like it like myself. They actually are not mutually exclusive.

As a creative professional I would look forward to the possible return of an SD card slot and HDMI port. However I would mourn greatly the loss of the Touch Bar. I know it is popular to complain about it in Internet forums, but in the real world eve…

A few years ago I realized that every time I bought something on Amazon I started seeing ads for that very thing on Web sites, Facebook, Instagram, etc. I went into the settings on Amazon and FB and turned on every privacy setting that I could locat…
