Just an addenda to my previous post: a $999 monitor stand?!?!?! Who shit into Apple's brains? Are they now proactively trying to turn people off? They'll next be selling suede condoms with a Siri connection.

Sure, if everything else has been attended to, Dark Mode seems like a nice thing to play with. But IMO Apple should first have given their "significant amount of effort" into making killer computers, the way they used to. Just saying. (No, the Mac P…

If what Apple has done with Macs is any indicator, Apple’s “premium” shine will begin to dull. Their services may still add up to big business, but their hardware will not be hard to beat, and the prices will be too high for the hardware they make.

This piece is a crock, and I have no idea why it was written - unless it was dictated by someone in Apple marketing. First - Jobs’ interest was hardware - its design and user features. Sure, he was a businessman, too, and all this other stuff might …

@ APPLE - MOVES LIKE THIS ARE QUICKLY ERODING YOUR FAN BASE, AND ALMOST BEGGING FIRST-TIME COMPUTER BUYERS TO BUY SOMETHING ELSE INSTEAD. IT MIGHT BE TIME TO TAKE A FEW PEOPLE OFF THE WORLD-SHAKING TASK OF DESIGNING NEW EMOJIS AND HAVE THEM START M…

I can’t complain. Dropbox is, after all, a company, not the Salvation Army. They’re a business, which doesn’t just live for its product, but also from it. They offer a good, reliable service, which has improved over time, and has made my life easier…

Geez, was this a paid blurb, or what? OK, AppleInsider's an Apple fan, but c'mon ... Apple's overall business model, including most of the hardware and sevices they make, seem pretty good, and APPL stock has begun to recover, but this article has it…

As I've said in other posts, I'm sorely disappointed that an upgraded MacBook or equivalent isn't being mentioned. A smaller (11" or 12"), very functional and capable machine, with modern peppy innards and various ports, without the needless bells …

Noticeably missing: a new, better MacBook. Not bells and whistles, no TouchBar gimmick, just a plain but capable portable machine with modern, useful innards. Whose omission, Apple's or the authors?
-
And what about the MacBook? The MACBOOK, which needs serious updating.

I'm sure I'm missing something, because, with WiFi so widely available (hotspots all over, at least in Europe), why would this even be needed, with things like Viber, WhatsApp, FaceTime, Skye, Zoom, and such available for everyone for free? Of cours…

I'm probably going to get a new Mac laptop sometime soon, but I think I'll wait for the new MacBooks to come out, sometime this year, I think, and see how they compare with this new Air. I was a bit disappointed with the new Air because I was expect…

Sure, the new Mini's better than the old one, but "worth the wait" is a bit too much. Apple could have done it years earlier, and could have equipped it much better. So, yeah, thanks, Apple, for this new Mini, but why didn't you give it to us earlie…

FWIW (not much, I’m sure), I wholly agree with the author. Altogether, Apple seems to be more interested in bells and whistles for the music and social media crowd than in making and improving the simply excellent products for computer users which u…

You write, about notifications, "we still need them to keep up with what is going on". Do we really? Do we really have to know, all the time in realtime, what's happening, what and where our "friends" are doing, what the Kardashians are up to, and o…

Touch bar's like pyjamas on a horse: cute, arguably even cool, but totally unnecessary, let alone useful. Drop it, Apple, save the money for improving the innards.
