  • Trump's chip tariff threat takes aim at Apple's TSMC partnership

    What happened to open markets? I guess they're okay as long as no one can outperform us.

  • Looking back at 15 years of the iPad, Apple's revolutionary tablet

    bloggerblogbloggerblog
    I would say the iPad single handedly brought seniors to the age of computing. My day could not use a computer to save his own life, we bought him a Mac sat with him for days and weeks, he didn't get it. Believe it or not, he even struggled with the concept of a double click! That's until I gave him my iPad, he took to it like fish to water, it was as close to a miracle as we could have hoped for. He used it to read the news, watch YT videos, listen to music, write emails, play games. Great work Apple!

  • Apple again dominates CES without even showing up

    bloggerblogbloggerblog
    I would like to see Apple run their own MacWorld expo, no iPhones or iPads, just Macs. MacWorld events were super useful and I miss them. I'm sure there will be iPhone, iPad, Windows, Linux, and other products but they'll be related to the Mac.

  • Flexbar review: Could be the heir-apparent to the Touch Bar, someday

    bloggerblogbloggerblog
    I believe the TouchBar was not adopted by many developers because Apple only made it available on a handful of MacBooks, it implied a lack of confidence to the hardware from Apple. Otherwise I found it useful, at the beginning it seemed like a gimmick but after a while I found that it is much more useful than the F keys.

  • Apple may revive its AirPort technology in new HomePod and Apple TV

    I would assume all Apple products will connect and decide which one will be the hub and which will be a network extender, similar to how it works today but with Airport hardware. I doubt Apple will ship a dedicated hub product, it would feel like a step backwards.
    Except that Apple Intelligence requires more (and more expensive) processing power than HomePods and AppleTV devices currently provide. Rather than requiring replacement of all that existing hardware with more expensive versions of the same devices just to enable AI access, they can sell a new AI-capable hub that securely handles AI-processing in-home for all the other connected devices without requiring them to be AI-capable themselves. 

    Doing it the other way -expecting users to spend thousands to replace all their HomePods and AppleTVs- would mire HomeKit and Apple Home in low-adoption rates for years, which would be the real setback. 
    How about if they replace just one, like an ATV and that can act as the new hub?
