When Adobe went to the subscription model they lost me. I'd been a big Adobe fan since Photoshop 2 and used to be an Adobe sysop on CIS. But the notion of putting all my master files up for ransom was repugnant. Stop paying and you lose access to yo…

kkqd1337 said: Fantastic job. It’s good to see Apple gracious enough to admit they were wrong and go back to the solid, dependable, professional tower design. Admit they were wrong? Apparently they admit no wrong in lining their overstuffed…

SIX THOUSAND DOLLARS? Exactly how many pros could afford such a thing? This is not the 1980s with the Mac FX. 90% of professional Mac owners can only spend $3K or $4K. Apple continues to grow even more out of touch with reality. Believe it or not, …

Why would Apple do this? I figure that Google and a couple of other outfits already proved that these gadgets bomb. And they scream the word "dweeb".

Apple spent a decade doing brain-dead marketing, preaching to the choir and taking their traditional ivory tower approach to absurd levels. Every evening you would see as many as two dozen commercials promoting Intel, Compac, HP, etc. When jobs fire…

At least 50% of pro users don't really need a super powerful machine. Of the others, 80% can be happy with an iMac Pro. Of the others – around 10% of pros – they need a machine that is fast, with tons of RAM, and can be expanded up the wazoo. If App…

Bring back permanent licenses and I will give a damn. Until then I have no interest in giving Adobe control over my access to my intellectual property (i.e., my master files).

Regardless of how many Mac users actually run Windows, the fact that the Mac can do this is a big deal for people who might migrate to the Mac. If Apple ditches Intel, it will put up a barrier that will ultimately bad for the Mac. My concern is Ap…

I hope this works. A few years back I tried to organize an after school seminar at my daughter's elementary school for teachers in order to show them how they can easily create educational content using iMovie and Keynote. Out of fifty teachers, not…

Beyond my other comment, I recommend the Elite Pro QX2. Costs less, works great, USB3 / ESATA / FW800. Works with current as well as older Macs.

This is absolutely nothing new. I remember a "computer round up" review in which they shot down a Mac because it did not have an Ethernet card. The Mac didn't need a card. It already had 1000 BaseT built into the motherboard. This ridiculously stupi…

I am not interested in this phone. I like the home button with touch ID. As I may or may not be wearing glasses at any given time, the facial recognition thing would be iffy. Besides, someone could hold you down, then hold the phone up to your face …

Still waiting for a pro modular. The cylinder was ridiculous – form over function and the all-in-one approach is only for mid-range pros. I'll continue to use my tower until an actual from-the-ground-up Mac _finally_ arrives. We haven't seen the int…

iOS upgrade stats has only one real purpose: serving the needs of developers in determining the rate of technical advancement for their apps. As Apple does its very best to shove upgrades down users throats, their attempt to make hay from the stats …

I want a box, not an iMac. I have a great monitor setup and I do not need to toss them and buy a machine I can't expand. Frankly, when they came out with the cylinder design, I smacked my head. This was just more of Apple's ivory tower BS, where des…

HELL NO! Are they kidding???? I'm perfectly happy with my monitors. Why should I pay extra for yet another monitor. Apple no longer has any clue about what a professional is. Now we will have to wait for another two or three years until Apple finall…

For pros at the level of large corporations, this is great. For all other pros (say, 98%) this is waaaaay too expensive. As usual, Apple is focusing on the super cool and (as all the decision makers are multimillionaires) they figure $5,000 is reaso…

This is not the same MacUser as some people think. MacUser was a US publication that was purchased and shut down by MacWorld in 1997. There was a very large number of people who were angry at MacWorld for doing this (seethingly furious, actually). I…

No one's getting paid in this except the lawyers. The family, despite their grief, should be aware that there is absolutely no merit to their case whatsoever. Their lawyer knows it and he knows that there is no way on earth to win. The low-life SOB …

To those of us who have followed this over the years – including hirings, firings, reshuffles, patents, and more – it is clear that Apple is not going to become an automobile manufacturer. Rather, their focus will be on connectivity and automation…
