  • Mac page design app Affinity Publisher comes out of beta

    Will have to check it out. Although, anyone using an app like this is most likely sending it to a printer - so unless you are adept in pre-press and have your PDF files perfect, your printer will have to have it as well. 
    Will have to see if industry embraces it. 
    Almost every designer has a love/hate relationship with Adobe.

  • Editorial: New Mac Pro highlights the gap Apple isn't filling

    This article is what it is - but at the end of the day the current lineup is all about Apple future proofing profits. By taking away expansion and upgrade capabilities, users have to upgrade more often. The problem with the cheese-grater was that it was perfect. Users were able to keep them going for 2 or 3 or 4 generations longer by doing their own upgrades. Apple has intentionally designed their lineup not to benefit their users - but to maximize profits. End of story.

  • Jony Ive says Apple has 'energy and vitality' and he is nowhere close to done

    I'm convinced he won't be done until he has a wafer thin iPhone that gets 2 minutes of battery time.

  • Judicial panel orders consolidation of 61 iPhone throttling lawsuits, case to be heard in ...

    Fools do not understand how batteries work.
    I hope the judges understand.
    Fools who believe in ‘secretive features’ that Apple denied until they were exposed...
    Pretty sure the judge will understand.

  • Stop panicking about Apple's rumored switch from Intel to its own chips in the Mac

    Maybe Apple is working on it, but they're not just going to move to it without a solid plan for everything. I think people are worrying a little too much. 
    The Rosetta solution for the intel switch was kinda brutal. 
    In a lot of cases, you had to repurchase all your software again and buy new peripherals for the drivers. 
    It took a few years for software to catch up - some never did.
    Like Keynote for example, version 9 had a lot of features that were lost in the re-write and never came back.
    I think it was what killed off Quark as well.

    It was a very disruptive workflow in general.
    The problem with keeping Pro macs on Intel is that they will get less and less resources and support- to the point where it just makes sense to switch to windows. Like a lot of printing and design houses did with the Intel switch. 

    The big question is the Adobe factor.
