Why can’t they add HDR10+ to the older AppleTV streamers?  You don’t need the A15 for that. 

I agree. We still have a chance of it coming later, maybe even on November 4, when the new Apple TV is available.

HDR10+ does not replace HDR10. It is an additional supported format.
HDR10 is till supported o, the 2022 Apple TV.

I had an Archer 802.11ac touter (same look as the one in the article) and it was a mess. Including firmware updates that slowed it down.
Moved to an Asus WiFi 6 router and am very satisfied.

Had excellent experiences with Deco P9 though, which I recommended to several friends (the P9 is a mesh system that uses WiFI+powerline automatically, which is easy to install and works great in old buildings or houses with thick walls.

It would be nice, in the article and in the video, to be clear about whether the Mac Studios are M1 Max or M1 Ultra, since the M1 Ultra have a much beefier cooling system/
I think the video is about M1 Max, which is the least relevant comparison.

Good article. 

Also, in my experience in a variety of use cases, even great TV sets seem to have a vastly inferior aliasing setup for the finer details such as text and fine lines, such as window edges. 

That is probably because the default chroma subsampling for TVs is 4:2:2 or 4:2:°, which means that chrominance data is at half the luminance resolution horizontally and/or vertically.
This is fine for video sources (even 4K Blu-Rays are encoded in 4:2:0, which means that chrominance is only encoded in 1920x1080, as luminance is encoded in full 3840x2160) ...but is terrible for text, which appears blurry.
That is why TVs usually have a PC mode which sets chrominance subsampling to 4:4:4 (no subsampling).

This setting can be hidden- for example on LG TVs you need to change the icon for the input(!) to the PC icon in order to engage PC mode and its 4:4:4 subsampling.
