One Ring to rule them all and in darkness forever bind them. I think there is something lost in the translation here. Apple has shown an aversion toward accessories to just make their devices function. Steve Jobs famously got rid of the styl…

Well... that's a good start. But like a divorced spouse wanting a comeback, I'm bound to ask "how can I be sure this won't happen next time?" Four years down the road, when I'm again in the market for new Mac workstations, how do I know that Apple…

Who did Tim Cook have to fire this time because that person refused to sign his/her name under this apology? Really the Chinese media is a fucktard. Apple says very clearly in the warranty that they may replace faulty iPhones with new parts or refu…

"News flash, idiots: Apple doesn't get to choose when the chips come out. If Intel releases them all at once, then Apple should probably update as soon as possible. We'll likely see the Haswell iMac, Mac Mini, MacBook Pro, and MacBook Air roughly ar…

That sounds cool enough. How about giving us a new Mac Pro? I'm dying to buy 6 of them for my studio. If nothing comes out by the end of this year, I'm moving to Windows.

You know, SIRI was a DARPA project which likely dates back more than a decade from 2004. Sue that. The iPhone wasn't even released in 2006 and Android and Windows Phone were nowhere to be seen at that point. How can this company claim they c…

Apple data centers are highly concentrated in the US. My concern is how does it scale globally? The speed of the App Store is not great, but acceptable. Siri/dictation can definitely pick up some speed (hopefully done locally on the phone with occas…

"Foxconn saw a record $3.2 billion in net income" "Foxconn, announced ... its profit also climbed to a record $3.9 trillion in New Taiwan dollars" Can the author care to explain which amount is in which currency? $3.2B New Taiwanese Dollar (TWD, w…

Let's hope that Apple comes out with a Haswell-equipped Mac Pro with unbuffered RAM, Thunderbolt, USB 3 and a lower price tag than what they are offering now. Oh, having more GPU selections would be good. Graphic designers, photographers, audio/vide…

Samsung has been in the electronics component industry for so long that you almost can't produce phones in decent volume without them. Everywhere you turn, it's unavoidable that you must rely on Samsung for some of the components. Intel has …

May be directions and stuffs are fine in Cupertino, but when I had a vacation in Vietnam last year, the entire city of Hue did not have a named streets in Apple Maps. It was completely useless. Google Maps at least gave the correct walking instruct…

SSDs are falling to near $1/GB these days. So 2TB would cost a hugh $2000. What I think is, they somehow managed to jam 4 x 512GB mSATA SSD into the enclosure, with a RAID controller to help with the distribution of data.
