  • Apple launches iPhone 13 with A15, smaller notch & more

    I feel like it's a little telling that they're saying 50% faster than rivals chips.  Only a couple years ago they wouldn't even mention rivals, they'd only be comparing Apple chips to the previous Ap ple chips.
    This was a post I just saw by a semiconductor analyst.  Make of it what you will



    This is the article he's linking to:  https://semianalysis.substack.com/p/apple-cpu-gains-grind-to-a-halt-and

  • Microsoft says Windows on ARM will not support Apple M1 Macs

    The real question is if Microsoft will continue to try and break Apple Silicon compatibility, or will allow its use unofficially.

    On one hand, it threatens Microsoft's bread-and-butter Wintel homogeny - on the other hand, there will soon be a fairly vast pool of Apple Silicon devices which will be entirely outside the Windows market if they do.

    And let's face it: this may be the fastest ARM Windows will run for some time, despite Microsoft's claim that they're making their own chips (née Qualcomm).
    Apple doesn’t now or will ever sell enough Macs to threaten Windows grip on the desktop market.
    Agree.  MS has won that market.

  • Apple not a monopoly but must allow alternate payment methods for apps, judge rules

    So you think you're smarter than the judge? Go apply for her job.  Apple's a company, not your friend.  Sooner you realize that the better your life will be.  Apple got exactly what it deserved.
    So you believe that Apple should be required to allow developers to put their apps on Apple’s App Store for free and users download them for free and the developer can charge for the app outside of Apple’s App Store. So then Apple makes no money for providing a really easy place for the developers to distribute apps while spending money for the resources and infrastructure to maintain a secure App Store?

    Talk about a spoiled and entitled attitude…
    It doesn't matter what you believe or what you feel.  I trust the judge's ability to apply the law much better than myself.  Like I said before, if you think you're smarter and better than her, go apply for her job and stop acting like a whiney Apple apologist.

    This is a foolish verdict and sucks for Apple and consumers, but it's only possible because the judge doesn't really see non-iPhones as real choices. At least that's something positive Apple can take away from this.

  • Apple's Kevin Lynch tapped to take over leadership of 'Apple Car' project

    Another software guy, former Google exec and current Apple AI and machine learning VP John Giannandrea, is overseeing the entire project while Lynch will handle day-to-day. So yeah, definitely no indication that they're focusing on hardware and building a car.  
    Didn’t Jobs say in order to do great software you need your own hardware?  Paraphrasing, but it went something like that.
    Alan Kay, who used to work at Apple, said that.  Jobs was quoting him.
