Unfortunately, Apple gave Jony Ive a monopoly on user interfaces; no one approves his work and there is no user testing. "Skeuomorphism" is a Greek word that means "things look like what they are." Jony has decided that making things look like what…

How ugly is OS X 10.11? Are they going further in the direction of a cartoon interface or are they backing out to a realistic one? Will it have circles everywhere as in 10.10 and iOS? Will it continue the transition from icons to symbols, or will it…

They shuttered the online Apple Store? I don't like shutters myself. When a tornado ripped the shutters from my house, I did not replace them. Without all those vertical decorations, my house actually looked wider. So I recommend that they take off …

If hardware design were physics, Jony Ive would be Einstein. If UI design were opera, Jony Ive would be a lounge singer.

There is a difference between reflected colors (such as on poster boards and computer hardware) and projected color (such as on a monitor). All this white would look great on a poster board, but it is painful to look at on a monitor. Apple does no…

I made the mistake of trusting Apple software. Pages 4 is mission critical for me. Can anyone tell me if 10.9.2 breaks Pages 4?

I'm an early adopter. I bought the first Intel iMac, the first Intel MacBook Pro, the first Retina MacBoo Pro, and the first iPhone on the first day they came out. And that's just the Apple stuff. However, in the case of Google Glass, I'm a never a…

My devices must have been designed by Henry Ford. You could have a Model T in any color, as long as it was black, and I can have a synthesized voice in either gender, as long as it's female. It seems a tad sexist, like draping new cars at the auto s…

The iLunch has rounded corners, an innovative cooling system, and magnets instead of a latch. You can password-protect it so no one can steal your lunch. If you lose it, or someone steals it, you can find it with iCloud. There is no optical drive, o…

Hasn't anyone noticed that the Surface is really a netbook? They detached the keyboard and ironed the screen flat, but otherwise there is nothing original here. It's a netbook.

Why buy a Molex when you can buy a Rolex? Don't Apple's imitators realize that the existence of the Molex proves the value of the Rolex? I hope Apple prevails on all their design patents, but not for their sake. Right now there is only one way to d…

Why did Intel call their new laptop spec the Ultrabook instead of something like the Ultrathin? Just the name Ultrabook makes you think of some guy in an alleyway opening his raincoat to show you the Ultrabooks next to the Molex watches and the Biff…

So, the FCC outed the new Apple TV. I would never have guessed it was gay! Don't worry, Apple TV, it just gets better.
