  • AI computer showdown - MacBook Air vs. Microsoft Surface Laptop Copilot+ PC

    The elephant in the room though is Copilot. I haven’t used it myself but I know several people who have as part of Office365. They hate it, like truly despise it. Copilot is pushy and they find it getting in the way more than ever helping. Clippy on steroids. So the hardware is only part of the story. The real test will come with Apple’s AI efforts this fall. Let’s hope they aren’t as obnoxious as Microsoft’s apparently are.

  • Apple Vision Pro earns prestigious Black Pencil design award

    I'm expecting that at some point in the future, Apple Vision Pro will replace my iPad. That day has not yet arrived, but I'm expecting that it will within the next couple of years. Maybe when we finally get solid-state batteries. The battery issue is my main hesitancy to Apple Vision Pro.
    Edited: For Spelling
    I’m saying five years, minimum, but same. 
    Sure, why not.  I too would like a new way to play solitaire.

    The iPad is a toy, replacing it with another expensive toy only makes sense.
    Uh, no, no it’s not. 
    I use my iPad for about 80% of my computing. That includes things I used to do with my Mac, writing, video editing, etc., because it works just as well. Then there are the things that I do on the iPad, such as drawing and painting, where it works better than my Mac. Far from being a ‘toy’ the iPad has evolved into a powerful computer. Your comment reminds me of the guys I’d run into that insisted that the Mac was a toy and you needed DOS to do real work.

  • TSMC is continuing to complain about 'unacceptable' US chip plant terms

    Geez, what a bunch of whiners. They knew what things looked like going in. Maybe they thought if they stamped their foot and cried enough that the government would fold like the State of Wisconsin did. Dudes, you sighed a contract, hold up your end or pay the penalty. You don’t want to be double taxed? Talk to the government of Taiwan. 

    As far as their bi*ching about how Americans don’t work hard enough. We may not work as hard as you’d like but you see your employees as replaceable, disposable pieces that can be used up and thrown away. In the west we put a higher value on the welfare of our fellow citizens. Once again you knew this going in, so shut up or GTFO.
