The iMac Pro does come with ECC RAM, which makes it deserving of a “pro” label. Anyone serious about their data would benefit from that. (it’s a continuing shame that MacBook Pro do not have an ECC option. Apple shouldn’t be beholden to Intel chips…

Is there any chance of it being available outside the US, or have they sold individual programme rights to hundreds of different distributors?

I’d forgotten all about the existence of Pickwick records, and that got me thinking: what was their original MO when it came to recording those well known songs but with session musicians? Wikipedia was an interesting read, but imagine my surprise …

Here’s the thing about this “outrage” PR. Apple are reported to have revoked a developer certificate. That doesn’t mean they’ve seen all variants of some bad actor’s signed malware, it doesn’t even mean they’ve seen any of them: there’s no way of…

I do ask myself the question “why now?” With iPod it was an opportunity given by the small form factor hard drive that let them build a box the size of a packet of playing cards that could hold 1,000 songs (and more, in my experience) What has Hom…

Is it possible that it will involve the new Apple Pay Cash, in some way?

Now if they'd just add a search into the interface, so that I can find past events, that'd be great.

Still no facility to search, then? You'd think Google might be able to do that, even on mobile.

One small, very pedantic correction. It's been three connectors in 15 years of iPod and iPhone: FireWire on the original iPod, 30-pin from Gen 2 onwards, and Lightning.

Braintree (a PayPal subsidiary) have been offering Apple Pay support since launch (along with Stripe and others). PayPal don't really seem to care as long as they are involved in processing the transaction, though obviously pure card transactions l…
