  • AirTag, Find My key to recovery of lost wallet on NYC subway

    I cleaned out my wallet and put a lot of ID cards into AppleWallet using Pass2U Wallet on my iPhone, so even with an AirTag now slipped into a inner compartment my wallet is actually thinner than it was before!

  • LG UltraWide 5K2K is a beast of a monitor with Thunderbolt 3

    "For example, the latest Mac Mini is unable to push this display at full native resolution." Is this true? I was going to purchase this monitor, but if I can't get full resolution with the 2018 Mac Mini I might as well stick with my ancient, but still functional Apple 30" HD Cinema display at 2560 x 1600.

    Yeah - Apple IPS laptop displays always stood out to me, and I'll never forget when Apple launched the 30" 2,500x1,600 monitor, and then later when they launched the first retina displays. These were awesome landmarks. Can't wait to see Apple lead with microLED in the future. And they have an edge few can beat - they can charge 10x what everyone else can for their products.

    It’s more than impressive how Apple wasn’t even known for its screen development capabilities just a decade ago and today they’re one of the best screen developers. I hope and surely believe they will keep up the good work.

    I believe, jdiamond, is referring to the Apple Cinema HD Display which is 30-inch (2560 x 1600), and was the best birthday present I ever received (price tag was around $3,000 at the time!). I still use it to this day and it is one of the best products Apple has ever produced. Although, It takes 2 different converters to make it compatible with my Early 2009 Mac Mini! I dream of Apple coming out with a great new Mac Mini which would support multiple new (dream as well) Apple 30" Retina Display. To me the 30" monitor is such an advantage over a 27". I also have a 2017 iMac 5k Retina Display, with the added (Apple approved) LG UltraFine 5K display. Both are great, but I still find the 30" monitor to help my workflow, so my workhorse machine is still the 9-year old Mac Mini (despite the inability to upgrade to Sierra/High Sierra). And just to clarify, am very aware of the Sierra Patch Tool for my Mac Mini; however, my Mac Mini had the Broadcom BCM4321 WiFi module which is not compatible with the patch : ( And I've upgraded it so much in the past, I would just love for Apple to come out with a new Mac Mini!).
