A trillion operations per second. On a phone. I remember when the G4 came out and it was classed as a supercomputer as it could do a billion per second. A thousand times more from a phone. The 20 years ago version of me didn't see that coming.

If they win you're possibly looking at billions in damages as they could rightly claim that improved cameras are among the very top features people want in a new phone. Would it not be cheaper for Apple just to buy them? Might this be one reason fo…

Apple is selling the 256GB iPhone 8 for more than a 512GB Galaxy S10. There's your problem right there for Apple. In a world where top-line Android phones are decent all-round machines, Apple is seen a being greedy. As a 30 year Apple user who has …

A lot of people, unfortunately, judge and buy on specs. Most Android phones offer more pixels, more RAM etc... which people think makes them better/faster. Most reviews say the Android phones are blisteringly fast and rarely mention how the latest i…

I bought 3 Echo Dots for me and the kids at Christmas as I heard they had started supporting Apple Music. Support in the UK didn't happen until Easter so I moved to Amazon Music so the kids could listen to music. One of them would just not connect. …

Apple has what, 8% of the X86 market. I can't see how they could be in any kind of regulatory trouble with this. Your 'new competitor' line is also puzzling. The silicon industry is packed with competitors. Apple seems to be good at staying near the…

People cleverer than me will be able to give good reasons but why does Apple not buy AMD? Market cap is just over $30B, more than affordable for Apple.

If Apple had priced the base Mac Pro at $3500 with a 512MB SSD I would be in. I could upgrade things like RAM over time. But 6K and 256MB is a total insult to their customers. This is effectively just a machine for high-end video production companie…

hackintoisier said: What are others' thoughts on whether it makes sense (or not) for Apple's design decision to stop developing expandable Macs? Some users will never open their Macs, others will want to tinker. But older Macbook Pros circa…

How do Dell, HP etc... manage to have a range of workstations, from low powered slimline desktops to full-size Mac Pro competitors? They cover the spectrum from Mac Mini prices right up to tens of thousands for high spec models. As Apple users, we …

Looks amazing though I would like to see how the likely crippled $5999 version compares to similar PC workstations. I can't help thinking that the Apple Tax is back with a bang. The stuff looks like it's fantastically engineered (probably over the t…

Something's not right here. Apple traditionally hates cable mess (the main advertising point of the original iMac). A modular design has SO much duplication in chassis materials, fixtures, fittings, power and cooling. And assembly. These things woul…

Here's an idea. Why not make some computers that more people can actually afford and try relying slightly less on one product? Apple could do so much more with the Mac and although it's nowhere near the income they've getting from the iPhone, they'l…

Just because you can doesn't always mean you should... I always had a bit of a soft spot for the Microsoft Courier concept. I think 2 standard (glass) screens with a touch sensitive strip over the hinge area would work fine, allowing you to drag st…

@spliffmonkey The reason? Well my current 2012 cMP (granted with some heavy Mods) is running 12- cores at 3.46, 128gb ram, a 1080ti, a highpoint 7101 4x- m2 ssd blade NVMe raid card on 16 lanes, usb C, 16 TB internal storage on Ssd, …

There's not much in this at all. Considering the P3 is supposed to be head and shoulders ahead as the best camera I thought it was only really better on about 60% of the shots. I'm pleasantly surprised at the results from the XR which I expected to …

One thing we have to remember here is that Apple is the SOLE provider of the hardware. We have no choice than to go with what they give us and I'm really losing patience with them. There are a load of PC manufacturers that will sell you a big box wi…
