I believe the Mac desktops are to blame. It's wrongly designed in this moment. Current Mac desktops assume you either want laptop performance, or you want an "all in one machine", or otherwise you want a Xeon. All these assumptions are plain wrong, …

iHat (top-of-the-head iOS experience) iCarbonara (first eatable iOS release in history. It tells you "please don't eat me" when you open the box) iUmbrella (its surface can detect up to 10 simultaneous water drop hits, and iOS informs you where ea…

The main problem at Apple is that they've changed their user base. In the past it was mainly driven by intellectual and/or creative users, so the "think different" motto fitted nicely. Now the user base is people who don't need computers. iOS, acco…

The "post PC" era is in fact made of products that are obsolete even before hitting the market, because people demand desktop performance (specially for games, but not only), while Apple and Samsung try to make money by doing light and affordable to…

I find it disgusting to read "post PC" in an article with the implied meaning of "post Mac". It's also disgusting how the Apple fan base has changed. A couple of years ago, the fan consensus was iOS didn't mean the end of OSX. Today, fans no…

It seems they didn't listen to the Jony Ive interview about naming products

Please Jony, less nonsense interviews, and more work on the next OSX release and on the new Mac Pro, please.

Now this is brilliant: The same day Obama announces the new Mac plant as a help for the economy, arrives Tim Cook and talks about the Mac being an obsoleted product in the "post PC" era. And then some people don't understand the Apple stock decline.

Wrong thinking like these Tim Cook thoughts are what are causing the Apple stock decline, and what will cause a major failure in the long term. To begin with, after reading this I'm no longer confident about how safe is to invest on the new Mac Pro …

Not sure about how reputable this rumor is, although it matches available data, so it can be true. Anyway, no matter if the spring release is true or not, this is the only important rumor I've seen for the last 12 months (and no, I never had a Mac…

In other words, a printer/scanner maker is talking about compatibility with a system whose maker didn't even care to attend the show. Sounds surreal, but it's actually a portrait of the real Mac situation.
