  • Intel launches new Kaby Lake chips suited for Apple's MacBook Pro, iMac

    That will be awesome for Apple to roll out new models 4 months after I invested in their below average iteration of the MacBookPro.

  • Apple's changes to macOS PDF handling stymie third-party developers, cause data loss

    This doesn't surprise me at all. The new MacBook and Sierra are buggy. Apple is not getting the details right anymore of what made their hardware and software truly great.

  • Review: 'RollerCoaster Tycoon Classic' for iOS is faithful port of '90s title

    I loved these games when they first came out, but I just can't see myself playing it on an iPhone. 
    iPhone would be tough.  On my iPad Pro with 12" screen it works really well.  I agree bring it out on Mac or even AppleTV...

  • Apple manufacturer Foxconn aiming to fully automate factories in three phases

    This has been happening since humans existed. So to say all of the sudden this is going to be a major issue is absurd. It changes the landscape so people have to adapt as well. It still doesn't make it any less important to retain jobs in the US. It also is a good idea to keep illegals out and require them to play by the same rules if they want into this country. Then the biggest piece of this is those that are jobless need to WANT to work. Good luck with that.

    Apple suppliers to moving to the U.S. would require them to figure out how to produce the same parts at the same price because Apple is certainly not going to pay more. That, of course, would require intensive automation which would limit the number of jobs created. And jobs is supposedly the object of this political game is it not? 
    It is ostensibly about job creation. But being able to say "made in America" or some other rather meaningless "mission accomplished" is the real reason.

    I surely hope Trump doesn't get anywhere near an import tariff. The effects will be terrible for Americans. If he was wise and knowledgeable about economics, trade and things like comparative advantage, he would would to unshackle international trade even more, not restrict it. Trade helps to generate wealth and prosperity. Trade restrictions do the opposite.
    Trump only cares about Trump and his money. He doesn't care about Americans or anyone else in the world unless they can make him money. The majority of people who voted for him just don't understand this fact. I would have thought they would have after watching his stupid "reality" TV shows. Trump doesn't really care about bringing jobs to the US or worrying about Made in the Grand old US of A, he only cares about his bottom line and how he can make more money. Everything he spouted during the election was BS to get him elected, although I'm sure he never thought he'd pull off the grandest of reality TV shows by actually winning. Now he has to do something legitimate that doesn't plunge the US and the world into the greatest of depressions, which he is capable of doing very easily.
    Take your bashing elsewhere. It is people like you that get this country no where quick. Start listing the things you have done to make a contribution to this country. Short list? That is why you are so angry?
    The truth hurts doesn't it Techprod1gy....
    It was an unproductive rant that does nothing. It is an opinion. Not necessarily truth or fact.
