Let's not forget that we're in this situation because Apple either won't make Facetime cross-platform, or get involved with a video-conferencing standard that the rest of the tech world can get behind. Imagine for a minute what the world would be l…

Great news. So how long before I can buy a true Flight Simulator-alternative for my 27" iMac?

I'd honestly forgotten MYOB existed. That can't be good for the company. Accounting has largely moved to SAAS models allowing for multiple OS environments and distributed offices. Intuit Canada has long ignored making Quicken Home and Business avai…

I wonder how things would shake out if this June Apple intro'd a lower-end Mac Pro powered by the A14 chip...

Assuming that the Hollywood market Apple is aiming for is satisfied with the new Pro, I think it would make sense for Apple to next offer a lower-end Pro machine targeted at the more traditional pros in the Mac market (Photoshoppers, Science/Governm…

Most people don't get that the pursuit of thinness was never just about design. Apple materially benefits from using less raw materials, and from reduced shipping charges. These were never passed on to customers. Yes, it absolutely hurt the iMac l…

Yep, it looks like next year's update to WiFi 6 and USB4 will make this the perfect Mac to have for years to come. Great job Apple. Nice to see this return to form with the important MacBook Pro line.

Maybe Steve could have sat them down prior to the release of Avengers: Endgame and explained that time travel doesn't work that way.

melgross said: We hope. The problem is that there are a lot of makers of cables out there, and over the years, a number that were rated at certain levels turned out to not meet the standards. People don’t know what they’re getting. So I expect,…

Yeah, they're absolutely going to need to colour-code the cables.

Yikes. USB-IF to continue confusing name scheme with USB4 Gen 3x2 The engineers need to be physically thrown out of the marketing meetings.
