While I understand the desire for Apple to promote the App Store on the Apple Watch it's not very useful as you are not getting details of what the app offers at the main point. No text, no sample screens, nada! How about running a mini movie! Just …

As much as you beat the drum of Mac's going ARM from Intel it is not going to happen! The truth is more powerful iPad's will erode the bottom tier Mac's. Which is why the MacBook was killed to make room for a new clamshell iPad! We've already seen …

Offering an optical connection makes a lot of sense for the data aspect of the connection thus lowering the pins needed in the case. Still need a means to get power in so a contact of some sort is still needed for that.

I'm wondering if Apple is going to surprise us this October! What if Apple is going to offer a smaller version of the new Mac Pro! Basically, a desktop Vs Tower with fewer slots and less RAM support. More of a system for photographers and gamers!…

This reminds me of the story: Goldilocks and the Three Bears! One bowl of Porridge was to hot, and one was too cold the middle one was just right! I agree! There is a missing system! Something less than the new Mac Pro, as good as it is its just to…

Good write up! Hopefully is pulls away the curtain a bit so people understand the Ying & Yang of chip manufacturing.

One of the problems we face is knowing the true compute of a chip clock rate to compare to other CPU's that is just below the thermal threshold of the given system. So lets say the heatsink needs to stay at 95º what is the performance and then compa…

The issue is what is the performance delta between the i7 & i9 six core and the new i9 eight core at the same clock. Is the eight core worth the cost? Just like cars the top speed mark on the speedometer is less important if you can't find a ro…

So I'm stuck using Siri Short Cuts to create cue's to play sound files I've had to prep up so I can play them on call for my 2 year old niece! "Hey Siri what does a Dog say" > play Bark "Hey Siri what does a Cat say" > play Purr "Hey Siri w…

Sorry folks this is Fake! The numbers don't track. While there are a lot of people who would love to see an ARM based Mac system its going to be still a few years before we see one. Apple would be smart focusing on the low end systems first. Frank…

I just hope this isn't doom for Apple giving us more HomePod like devices. I really don't want either Amazon or Google monitoring everything I say or read.

The root issue is not jumping between different architectures, is if the next one offers better performance, thats how the user see's it. Apple is looking at it from a very different direction they see owning the CPU allows them to control costs im…
