One term used in The Independent article I hadn’t heard before is PMU—power management unit, described as “a microchip that ensures the other parts of the system are getting the energy they need” I gather this is part of the power supply?

I encountered these some years ago when trying to troubleshoot something (I can’t remember what it was). The scanned image of the photograph kept reappearing in Image Capture despite my attempts to delete it. I did an image search to find out what i…

YouTube TV bought the rights to NFL Sunday Ticket. They outbid Apple and others. They’re going to get an influx of new subscribers with that (even though it is an add-on), so this price hike is likely part of that calculus. I don’t know what happen…

Well, that’s certainly one solution for the low-volume problem when we’re talking about the economics of building variable Apple Silicon GPU modules/components for the Mac Pro.

I'm mystified by no early iMac M2 refresh. The iMac was the first Apple Silicon complete redesign. Maybe it didn't sell as well as they had hoped, and changes are coming. Or maybe they had a lot of M1 chips in stock, something had to give, and the i…

I’ll also add, on the good news side, that the these two interviews, taken together, also point to the M2 Mac Studio sooner rather than later. Shimpi’s remarks about “cadence” combined with the way Borcher addresses the product line (“from the MacB…

“We have a clear goal to transition fully to Apple Silicon. ... and that's something we intend to do.” Maybe it’s best to take this at face value. Most of the takes here (including my own) and elsewhere, positive and negative, are reacting to thing…

Makes sense, timing seems about right. Apple’s focus on the end product is a big advantage here, as seen in the way the Qualcomm executive had to hedge after saying “September, October,” to clarify that actually means sometime next year with regard …

There's a lot of good reasons for the 15" Air, so these rumors seem well-founded. I also think the M2 iMac will be introduced at the same time, also M2 iPad Air. I don't know if either Mac would have an M2 Pro option, but they might require the 10-…
