Can't we please stop these childish articles? Flyover has one purpose, StreetView other. Flyover cannot replace StreetView because it just doesn't let you zoom up to street level. If you want street level details, Flyover cannot be used. Period. …

The problem begins with Intel, IMHO: they're so worried on power efficiency that every new processor just adds about a 10% performance boost over the previous generation. While the (integrated) GPUs seem to be progressing, the new CPUs are a shame. …

While the original Apple charger has good security measures, and follows all regulations, I dislike the concept of these chargers. With the traditional linear adaptors, I never had any notice of a PSU outputting high voltage, and I've been using e…

I hoped the new Mac Pro announce was going to increase the quality and interest of rumors, but now I understand the "Apple fan" is just an iPhone fan nowadays. When Apple releases the rumored cheapophone, then they'll be mad about the watch toy, and…

Did anybody realize Mr Kuo only tells rumors for stuff that has momentum? Until a week ago, Mr Kuo ignored the Mac Pro like if it wasn't relevant in the keynote. Now he comes happy to announce rumors about the Mac Pro production. What a boy!

Of all the things announced in the keynote, this is the only feature I don't like 100%, unless you can disable/enable it when you really need it. I agree it can be useful when I try to do stuff which would need much more RAM than I have, but I'm the…

Btw, I just read a new headline at AI telling the new MBA also has PCIe flash storage. This might mean the flash storage in the new Mac Pro will perhaps not be as expensive as I was fearing...

I feel very strange. Very strange. I've been bashing iToys for years. I bashed the new iMac as well. And the new Mac Mini too... ...but... Today... I can only say I love this new machine... Apple, congratulations, this is the des…

I want one. Really excited about this. It has everything I wanted: good CPU, good GPU, standard SSD, and looks to be silent, it seems there're few fans there. Hopefully it won't get high temps at full load. I want one.

Finally, a true Apple keynote, after too many months of iOS routine.

Don't confuse terms, please. Patents are the nowadays equivalent to the "business" of Vito Corleone. It's just business. Apple and Samsung can do business, because they're big "families". Every few years there're wars between "families", but they're…

I don't understand this. Developers are told to focus their testing on graphics, and none of the changes are related to graphics. There're quite a few things to improve on Mac graphics, so it's disappointing there're no news on this after it was a t…
