Multi-stop routing? FINALLY?! NO WAY! This was my biggest beef with Apple Maps.  Here's hoping it's added to the Mac Desktop version, too, since that's where I usually do my trip planning.

The barefeats website informed every Mac purchase I've made for the past twenty years.  I just noticed the announcement on the website yesterday about his passing.

I know that Apple used to have a product grid something like this:

	consumer	professional
Portable	MacBook	MacBook Pro
Desktop	iMac	Mac Pro

Though obviously the introduction of the Mac Mini, Macbook Air, etc. kind of destroyed that. Now maybe we could see something like:

	Consumer	Power User	Professional
Portable	MacBook Air	MacBook Studio	MacBook Pro
Desktop	Mac Mini	Mac Studio	Mac Pro
All-in One	iMac 24	iMac 27

I think that Apple's customer base and product lines have grown enough to support this. I also acknowledge that the iMac Pro is discontinued, which leaves a hole in the bottom right corner of this chart. And I'm probably reading too much into this. I feel like we've been hearing about an imminent 15" MacBook Air for at least the past three or four years that never shows up.

What about a MacBook Studio?

I haven't seen evidence of burn-in on iPhone displays (my wife has a 12 with the OLED screen) but my LG 65" OLED TV from several years ago definitely has issues - for example, when you play a video game for a while, there's some image retention.  Worse, the older LG TVs had issues with the panels cooking themselves; you get areas of discoloration in the middle of the panel over time.  I'm kind of up in the air about whether I'd get another OLED TV at this point.
