Agreed. Computers and Tablets are definitely two different use cases. I use my ipad for somethings and I use my mac for other things. I find touch screens on a computer don't work for me from a workflow standpoint. Moving my arm from the keyboar…

My engineering brain says that the hinged area is always going to be a problem. A buddy has a samsung fold something. He loves it, but I never can get any info from him regarding what it does that is special. He is in the "anybody but apple" ideo…

RAM is like closet space, there is no such thing as "too much."

From what I have read out in the semiconductor area, the problem is power utilization on the apple designed modem chips. This is hard stuff to do. you want fast. You want low power. Everybody's stuff is going to work great outside of my office. …

Great. I can think about replacing my 2018 Macbook Pro running intel. I bet that Apple will mark my mbp as obsolete this fall. I like the Intel chips, but Intel screwed the pooch and Apple is on to Arm.

I'm sure that oled screens are great and awesome. So is the screen on my $449 ipad. I just don't see where the marginal value of an oled screen will drive a higher net profit on ipads. Assuming the galaxy tab s8 devices have oled screens and are …

It makes sense. If their manufacturing partners are just now ramping up, they don't need to be him by large orders from us individuals. I'm sure that Apple could take care of some quantities for medical services or other large organizations at thi…

I've always been an Intel fan. They always have just worked. I'd actually like to see a move away from Intel to ARM. I think Intel bungled their sizing of their chips too much in a competitive area, and that this change is justified. However, th…

The mac keyboards are very poor. The never ending quest for thin has caused problems with efficiency of actual work. Getting keyboards right is really hard. The thinkpads have the best keyboards.

Finally, comparing two devices that are actually about the same. Lenovo as the successor to the IBM PC Company is really where you can get the apple to apple comparison, if you will pardon the pun. I haven't tried the apple 16" keyboard, but I c…

I wish they would improve the keyboards that they have for actual work, like typing. My thinkpad's keyboard is great. It feels like a keyboard. My mac keyboard, which I have to use for iOS development, is dreadful.

Good to see Apple increasing memory. 64 gigs is the minimum for new systems today for me. I like the higher capacity SSDs as well, so that is impressive. I’m very critical of Apple, but this is All and all, a good new system. I hope the keyboard…

My fitbit is great. I'm convinced that Google will screw up Fitbit. If the Apple Watch had improved battery life (in the 5 day area), I'd probably switch on my next purchase.

I’m a sprint customer. It was clear looking at their financials that they were not going to survive much longer with massive payments due to bond holders in the coming years. I hope that the new T-Mobile will be able to survive while subsuming thi…

JanNL said: Better to wait a few days before updating? Yeah, I'll probably update tomorrow just to be on the safe side.

Apple doesn’t do a good job validating their software. Safari doesn’t work right on my iPad since the iPadOS release started. Apple needs to focus more on quality and less on “it compiles, ship it.”
-
I'm sure that there will be a ton of jokes about "You don't have it on your arm right...." In reality, fitbit requires a similar setup. A fitbit must be properly wrapped on your arm. With fitbit, iirc, you have to tell the system which arm it is …

After updating, several of my third party development tools and programs no longer work. These aren't 32 bit programs, but 64 bit apps. Does Apple even test things?

I'm not running out to buy a new iPhone 11 . I am quite impressed with the technology. I've got an Xs Max, and it is good enough for me. I'm waiting on 2021, barring an unforeseen circumstance. The iPhone cameras are quite good. the battery imp…
