Apple execs address Mac mini's hidden power button in 2024 redesign
mrr said:Epic fail. Ever since my Mac was hacked, I turn off my computer, whatever it is unattended.A finger doesn’t fit without lifting up the computer.Obviously designed by the Magic Mouse team.How many fractions of a second more would you have to spend to “lift” the incredibly heavy Mac Mini and turn it off? -
Apple CEO Tim Cook congratulates Trump on his second election win
darbus69 said:bad on you tim, there is nothing sane about this horrible human being…He’s also shown to be a class act and no matter who’s he dealing with, Xi Ping, Biden, Trump …, he always navigates with caution.That is what you want a CEO to do.OTOH he can act like Elon Musk and shoot from the hip and cause massive problems for Apple.My choice would be the former. -
Hands on: Apple's USB-C accessories leave us wanting more
charlesn said:Another case where Apple leaves easy money on the table and I wonder why. Backlit keyboard + USB-C? Sure, I'll upgrade! Just USB-C? No thanks, i'll keep my Touch ID Lightning Keyboard. Same for Magic Mouse and Trackpad. Same for AirPods Max USB-C. All long in the tooth products more than ready for some kind of refresh, but Apple just swaps out the charging port and that's it. It's funny that they took this opportunity to remove the etched Apple logo on the bottom of Magic Mouse--would have loved to have been in the meeting where they discussed a long list of tweaks they could have made, but only removing the Apple logo made it through! What was THAT decision about? Did they save some fraction of a penny on a bottom plate with no etching? Well, at least Apple is saving me money! -

I'd really like to place my order....
