So I'm getting a gut reaction here that DED hates Microsoft...... What a fun read! I started with an Atari 800 and then my dad bought a Mac in 1984 and we loved that thing so much. It was so cool to have my friends come over after they put out sho…

I wouldn't downplay my generation. We all do the best with what we have. This generation has had it pretty easy so they aren't as rugged and filled with grit like someone who rode bikes without a helmet and relished debates in college and out in the…

If Tim Cook is bitching about Intel, you can bet Apple is moving accordingly. Intel has turned into a slow mover in a fast industry. I'm excited again for hardware, stoked by steep looking graphs of AMR performance increases since the original iPhon…

Many years ago, my dad had a PC with Xeon processors that loaded photoshop in a split second. I've never seen anything like it on the Mac. Same with the iPad and iPhone. ARM processors have increased in power 100-fold yet WWF takes 15 seconds to loa…

It's exciting to imagine a world where desktops and laptops follow iPhones on the hardware upgrade cycle. Even if the upgrades for non-phones were every 2 years, consistently, that would be better than some of the huge delays that occur now. Modular…

There's always a few nuggets of truth or a germ of interest in new ideas. Some ideas, such as socialism, sound wonderful to younger people without the benefit of historical understanding. There are issues with unbridled capitalism and there have to …

This isn't govt. stepping in to curb abuse, like when Microsoft slammed the brakes on innovation by requiring hardware companies to ONLY offer Windows or losing their licenses. I'm not comfortable with more govt. overreach, especially in the realm o…

It might be painful for a bit but maybe there's an opportunity for Apple to go for a little market share via lower prices/tighter margins. I remember Jobs alluding to this concept when he was proud that Apple's pricing was newly competitive. I remem…

I was in college in the late 80s and my dad was as interested in computers as I was. He purchased a NeXT Cube and I did all of my assignments on that thing. The interface and applications were amazing. The NeXT Laser Printer was a thing of beauty an…

I remember when Apple (under Steve) would do these small updates to their hardware. And then, we'd get a really cool innovative, forward thinking update that got everyone excited. It's been a long time since I've been excited about the iMac. The Mac…

I went to the Apple store to check out the 13 inch MPB (without touch bar). I was really impressed by the thinness and quality. If I didn't know it was an Apple product, I would have dinged it for the screen. It's so incredibly thin that when I open…

Liberals, Hollywood elite, and CNN one week ago: "It's imperative for the healing of our country for Trump supporters to graciously accept the legitimacy of the election." Today: I agreed with CNN when they pushed for togetherness and moving forw…

Someone should put these 'limitations' vs. 'improvements' to the test. Have a huge video file or photoshop file and run the test. How hard does this laptop need to be pushed before the 16GB RAM limitation becomes something meaningful. I'd be interes…

I've never had a bad experience at an Apple store. Just the opposite - it's always been a wonderful experience. Talented, knowledgable people who listen and seem to care. And they smile and display enthusiasm. I'd want these workers for sure. Wha…

The high number surprised me. Well, I guess Trump was right. Like NeXT, such a factory could be built here and probably many more of those jobs could be eliminated. I knew there were potentials here as i watched prior videos of football sized factor…
