  • Apple's M4 Mac event will be a week of daily press releases and I'm here for it

    Marvin, thank you for the response.

  • Spatial content shot for Apple Vision Pro will soon be viewable in Safari

    1. Integration with Safari - what's Safari's market share? About the same as MS Edge. 0.01%
    2. More articles on how Vision Pro is boon in the OR. Which is probably true. 
    3. Quick updates to Vision OS. 
    4. 2025 will herald a Vision Pro at $2500. 
    Apple has beaucoup $ to pour into this money pit called Vision Pro. 
    So far as I am concerned Vision Pro is as dead as Julius Caesar and Apple Car. 
    Better expend the resources on better security across all Apple devices and make the typing experience on the iPhone more user-friendly. 

    Safari is preinstalled on all Macs, iPhones, and iPads. Thus all those users already have one compatible browser. My guess is Apple knows that most AVP users are also Mac owners.

    Microsoft Edge has a marketshare greater than 0.01% I assure you.

    As for allocating their resources on other projects, that's your opinion but most likely the people responsible for Safari programming don't work on the iPhone core UI input.

    In any case, no one can please everyone all the time. If you don't like AVP, don't buy it. You are free to buy a Meta Quest 3 and pair it with your favorite Windows system. Or buy a Playstation VR2 and plug that into your console. No one is pointing a gun at your head telling you to buy an AVP or any other Apple product for that matter.

    If you don't like the way Apple runs their company, you are free to start your own. 

    Best of luck.

    Did it again.

    "Verified the security of my connection" and wiped out my post. Thank you AI.

    Who knows, maybe there will be a rare surprise in amongst those Macs, too. Fingers crossed.

    It definitely would be rare. I'd like to see the occasional One more thing. . . Those were always fun even when it was a product I had no interest in.


    It would be nice if the week included the return of a 27-inch (or larger) iMac.

    I'd like that too but don't see it happening. Especially the (or larger) iMac part. That would be expensive and when the computer or display dies, that's a pricey doorstop. At least with TDM if the display died you could still salvage the computer without costing the arm and leg needed to pay for repairs. A 32" Apple monitor for which I could justify the price tag would be nice but that's not going to happen either.

    WTF.

    Why after composing a post, do I get a Verify Your Human post that, when verifying, wipes out my post?
