  • Giant 30-inch iMac, iPhone 15, OLED iPads: Apple's roadmap for 2023-2024

    I must be missing something.  30" iMac just doesn't make much sense to me.  Trying really hard to figure out who is the target for this product? Seems as much of a niche market as the new Mac Pro would be.... very small market segment.

    Internals the same as a studio? Monitor size (30" or 32") and maybe 6k being in their all-in-one as opposed to a Studio/mini setup?  At what cost? Wouldn't this approach Mac Pro territory? 

    Is the all-in-one concept worth that kind of premium over the Studio setup? I'm genuinely asking as I just don't see it.  Maybe the quality of the display alone is worth it.. we'll have to see, but I'm skeptical.

    I've been extremely happy with the 3 iMacs I've owned over the last 16+ years.  But I sprung for Studio / Display setup last spring and I've never looked back, not a single regret.  It does everything I've asked of it.  Tucking the little silver Studio away on my desk and visually its not much different than any of my iMac setups.

  • Apple will launch HomePod with 7-inch screen in 2024, says Kuo

    Goofy combination to be honest.  Any form factor that doesn’t alter the sound imaging by obstructing the speaker?  I can’t get the image of a second gen iMac out of my head.

  • Florida wants Apple & Google to label apps made outside US

    It’s a label providing some form information.  Read it or don’t read it.  If that’s you’re thing, then you do you. 

    About as useful as the sodium content label on my box of corn flakes in the morning…really only matters if I choose to read it or act on the information.

    Possible answer: Ron DeSantis.

    Yeah those poor delusional souls in FL, blindly following that DeSantis fellow.  FL, where  his leadership eliminated half their population with his reckless cv-19 policies.  Census showing a decline as people vigorously flee FL to the well-run blue states of CA, NY, MA, IL… heck all those states that show FL how it should be done.  /s
