Bought a top of the line unit to replace my 2009 iMac. Sold by the numeric keypad. Have a mismatched one right now, and eliminating batteries is something I am looking forward to. Hopefully it boots up in less than 30 minutes like my current mach…

Long time coming. Was always odd that SIN didn't have a store.

Still looks a month or two off from general occupancy to me, but you never know how their phasing is planned.

No point in upgrading the Mac unless they can make smb work... which they haven't managed to do for years. There are plenty of other similar software issues that fundamentally limit macs in the enterprise; fix them first and then worry about hardwar…

Time to sell Apple stock...

Typically this is an integrator role-- you build 4'x8'x8' (ish) multi-cabinet chassis and get all of the internal wiring finalized along with installing the servers. As their data centers grow, the rack and stack rooms likely need to be dedicated t…

Apple needs to start being more careful. While I doubt Microsoft's sales numbers have globally meaningful impact on Apple, the differentiation of the Mac line is disappearing when compared to a host of different options. While I wouldn't lump chro…

gmgravytrain said: AR/VR solutions? Yeah, I bet that's going to be a profitable VC business...NOT! AR/VR seems like it's a catchphrase like 3D TV was. It's unlikely very many people will be lining up to wear bulky VR goggles. Pretty my…

I was cursing my MacBook Air's lack of a dedicated Ethernet port today as I was troubleshooting network issues. I have 5 or 6 different Ethernet dongles (home, office, vacation home, suitcase, grab-bag/briefcase, and maybe another one on a shelf...…

Terrible selections. http://amplifi.com/ is likely the best product for any AirPort user. Throw a NAS drive in with support for TimeMachine and live happy. Mesh network, so fills in dead zones easily.

Took a look at the surface studio myself over the weekend, and will admit to being impressed. Not perfect-- same mirror effect as the iMacs, the tilt mechanism does offer a range of positions, but VESA mounting is important to me, and the pen was d…

This partisanship is depressing; people need to get over it. There are very real differences between what Trump and Clinton presidencies would entail, but to the average person they are second and third order issues that don't directly impact them.…

EsquireCats said: Pretty funny watch people equate share sales with unfounded conclusions. Execs sell shares when they vest, that's how a share bonus works. Meanwhile Apple profit share of the smartphone business is leaving nothing to comp…

As much as I am in the MacBookPro NotForMe camp, the iPhone 7 rationally chose to not go USB-C; it is a mass-market device and the infrastructure is not in place for it to be a seamless transition. The impact of screwing up on the iPhone is huge. …

While I generally buy MacBook Air's, I had gotten fed up with the need for two dongles and a power supply when I am off-site for work. I hate having to choose between Ethernet or hdmi. So, I was going to get the pro this time. Then Apple started t…

Wow... I am going to have to buy a Windows laptop for work. Second toe out of the ecosystem. This laptop does does almost nothing to handle my needs, which aren't that high-end. Nearly $3k when you add in the cost of a dock to actually make it fu…
