The academy outlived their usefulness decades ago. They’re better at picking ice cream flavors than good movies.

I think this is a good example of the other side of the sword of secrecy. No games, no killer apps, no abundance of 3rd party supporting products. Sure there’s a price Apple pays if too many people get details of unreleased products and talk about t…

I doubt that Apple would/could make you pay for it if it’s a single hairline crack with no point of impact. Believe it or not that is a covered repair on other Apple products. The key is single hairline and no point of impact. If it did expand and c…
