What's the point of this thing?

I'd never heard of it.  It sounds like a ridiculous idea, when you can read magazines or whatever on the web.

Hey, Apple, stop buying silly companies!  You want to buy something and shut down their Windoze apps?  BUY ADOBE!!!  Keep Acrobat alive on Windoze, put the rest apps in the Mac app store, and kill the subscription model and stop idiots from buying Windoze garbage and trying to do anything with graphics.

You've got more than enough cash in the bank to buy them outright. 

And, bonus, you can kill Flash dead immediately.

(It might be a good idea to release some actual Pro hardware first though - your current "Pro" lineup is a sad joke.)

"Windoze garbage"?  You mean the new, more powerful than Mac hardware (since Apple can't seem to update their desktops), that can run Adobe Graphics apps just as well as on a Mac?  What makes you think Photoshop runs better on a 5 year old Mac Pro than 2018 8th gen Intel hardware running Windows?  What does the OS have to do with the app?  

Better yet, why do you care what other people do?

If they get another $1billion in R&D, maybe they will figure out how to make a monitor. You know - the thing you plug into your Mac Pro (doh) or Mac Mini (doh).

Yes because other displays don't work with Macs....

With your logic, why need Apple computers at all?  Windows PC's can run the same software and have better performance for less money.  My point is some people want "all-Apple".

The only people I know who got iPX make over 100Kyr. And not even all the people I know that make 100Kyr got one, so, it’s kinda expected that a $1000 phone is going to sell fewer units than one nearly half the price. 

Really only a couple analysts that truely “get” Apple.

Let see if I understand this.  Because the only two people YOU know that have an X make >$100K per year, then obviously the demographic for the average iPhone X consumer is someone that makes over $100K per year?  Interesting...you run an analytics company or something?

If only Apple would make a similar policy for the Apple Pencil.  Don't use it for an extended amount of time and it won't charge.  Need to bin it at that point.

Minor quibble, but I long for a richer interface, especially when playing music.  A text-only screen with a barely recognizable, super-dim album art background is terrible.  

Something similar to what you see on your iPhone, with hi-res album art.   I tend to just use my phone (which has a magnetic mount to the dash) for navigating music.

I patiently await the day that a Tesla-like 17" screen is in every vehicle!
