Beyond the new 'iPhone Xs,' what to expect from Apple's Sept. 12 'Gather round' special ev...
It will probably take Apple spinning off the Mac division into a new company to get the most out of the platform. That way Apple can sell it off so Cook can invest more resources into the phone and jewelry business.MacMan1993 said:A phone company announces its annual event for its latest phones. It also announces it will no longer make computers as they are a sideline business, and takes up too much time, few sales, and have lost interest in making the best computers. Making phones is easier and more profitable. The software division that made iWork, Final Cut, Aperature, Mac Server etc will also be disbanded, as they haven't done anything in years anyway. No one will miss them. No professional laptops (15" are just toys), no pro desktop Mac worth buying since 2013, no 17" laptop since 2012, no new Mac Mini, since ...I forgot it was so long ago. Old computers with old processors, old graphics cards, no user upgradable RAM, tiny RAM limit of 32Gb, same old high prices. Apple should give 5 year warranties. After 25 years as a Mac user, I am considering those PeeCees sadly. Cheaper, faster, 17" laptops, powerful desktop models.

iPhone slowdown class action lawyers make 'inherently dangerous' demand for Apple to keep ...
Are the batteries dangerous once they have been drained? It is the energy they store while charged that should make them dangerous. Once they are discharged and the stored energy depleted I would think that they are safe unless the case is damaged.

Apple Park office chairs cost nearly $1,200 apiece, handpicked by designer Jony Ive
I worked for Agilent in 2000 and they required employees to be fitted for a roughly $1,000 chair. One of the brands was Herman Miller. I thought it was over the top but it was an ergonomics requirement.
