imat said: Just bought an iMac with SSD. Can I get a refund of the price difference (bought a week ago)? it’s a serious question. I know you can send it back if a new model comes out in two weeks after purchase. I wonder if it applies also to…

The only thing I really ever used it for was SlothCam. I found all sorts of cams from around the world and opened multiple windows showing Tokyo, the Giza Pyramids, etc... It was fun to see all those places live at the same time. Of course I still …

Sold my Apple stock yesterday. Made a fair amount on the investment but I don’t think the earnings report this quarter will be good. I’ Buy it back after the price drops.

I actually had this happen to me back in 2008 during one of my trips to the UK. I was working on site and when I got up to leave I pulled the plug out from the wall. The front plate with the plug ends on it came loose from the rest of the adaptor. I…

Hmmm...maybe it's time to revisit the SE form factor?

Wow! I had no idea it was that easy to make a proposal for annual meetings. I own roughly $30,000 worth of Apple stock so I'll have to mull over what I would propose at next years meeting. Anybody want to seconds a proposal for Apple to get back int…

As someone who is in the Apple repair business, including several years of warranty repair work, I think this lawsuit is nonsense. I’ve dealt with many cases where in the course of doing things like RAM or HD upgrades or replacements I would find th…

I started being more active once I got my original Apple Watch. Not that I was sedentary mind you but I'm often compelled to complete my circles which means I'm active more regularly. Not surprising it would have the same effect on other people.

SoundJudgment said: Hmmm.... a heart-rate sustained below 40 bpm?? I'd be dead already. My resting heart rate is in the mid 40's and occasionally when I'm in for a medical procedure that requires anesthesia it'll drop to 38-36 beats per mi…

I like the compactness and flexibility of USB-C but I've been terribly disappointed with the dearth of USB-C specific products. Yes a USB-C/Thunderbolt mouse is overkill but I would love to do away with all the adaptors I need to carry around with m…

I find it sad that after several years of a commitment by Apple to USB-C/Thunderbolt 3 that there are no true USB-C hubs available. It's fine that there are options that give you USB-C to legacy ports but I would love to have a USB-C hub with 4 actu…

I'm sitting at Logan International Airport after having spent several days in Istanbul Turkey. I found Apple Maps to work very well there not only for directions but traffic congestion. I was at a party last night at a hotel and the taxi driver who …

techrider said: It appears a line has been drawn on the life cycle of an Apple Watch - roughly 3.5 years (assuming you're a 'day one' adopter), regardless of how little or much you spent on the body and strap options (imagine the $10K+ some s…

Soli said: While round has an aesthetic appeal for a watch, I think that ship has sailed. I’d like to see the Watch display get a wider aspect ratio as there’s a lot of real estate on the lower arm and it would allow for better I/O which wou…
