Microsoft Surface Dial evokes comparison to Griffin PowerMate for Mac
Hardware with haptic feedback feels a lot nicer to use than a virtual control on a screen.fastasleep said:Same thought here. Why would you want to set the dial on top of the screen? The screen has multitouch, why can't it just be a virtual control that you can move around arbitrarily in whatever software you're working in?
People are calling the MBP OLED Magic Toolbar thingy a gimmick, but it is converting inflexible hardware controls to something way more dynamic and flexible.
THIS thing is sticking hardware where it would be most likely better served by a dynamic/flexible virtual touch control, in what seems like a tech demo of "look how cool it looks when we get the hardware dial to work with that rotating on screen color palette" when in reality it really might as well be sitting on the desk like the Griffin device (like mine is right now actually).
Maybe if you have two of them you can play air hockey?

What would be the advantage of a 5" iPhone over the 4.7" one? The size difference is tiny.

Samsung's cylindrical ArtPC Pulse computer apes design of Apple's Mac Pro
The HP looks a lot nicer than the Samsung. And hopefully with the upcoming rMBP redesign they'll finally upgrade the poor neglected MacPro...or just discontinue it all together I suppose.

Investors buoyed by report claiming Apple, Disney are potential Netflix buyers
If Netflix is indeed up for sale, I hope its Apple that purchases them and not Google, Amazon or Comcast. Disney might be okay as overall they seem to have a good relationship with Apple. But as they already have a big stake in competing platform Hulu it might be a conflict of interest of sorts for them. But a better fit for Apple.
