    So "new" mouse with USB C. Is port still on bottom of mouse?
    No one (the general public) cares other than the tech sites. The same applies to the lightning port and 60 Hz versus 120 Hz screens which is a big so what if you only have a 4K screen, the 4.5 K Apple curated screen is better than all of those 4K 120 Hz PC screens if you care about actual clarity on the screen and I’m not talking about playing games.
    Absolutely! 100%!!!

    Where’s the larger display? Where is FaceID for the Mac?
    When were those ever expected? The iMac is a very low volume product for Apple today and I'm not sure if it will support a 2nd model and FaceID isn't going to happen anytime soon.

    I see that Apple said that the M4 is 1.7 times faster than the M1, how about telling us how much faster the M4 is compared to the M2 & the M3.

    Could it be that it’s not very much faster than the M3?
    Because Apple is marketing this to those who originally purchased an iMac back in 2021 when the M1 iMac came out. They know people who recently purchased an M3 iMac most likely aren't looking to buy a new iMac again. So it doesn't make any sense to compare it to the M3 because even if you have an M1 iMac you can't get the M3 anymore.

  • Is Apple Vision Pro a 'first year flop' or tomorrow, today?

    Everything doesn't need to have the same level of success as the iPhone. All, the iPhone also wasn't a success right off either. It took about 3 versions before it became extremely popular. People are so fuckin' impatient and also don't understand the markets Apple competes in sometimes. The first revision of AVP wasn't meant to be a mass market product and Apple even said it's not going to and I don't think they could support it being one anyways from an assembly standpoint. 

    This sounds like the iPhone all over again where people initially put it down saying it's too expensive and nobody's gonna buy something so different, etc, etc. Apple shut these people up fairly quickly and those same people probably own an iPhone today. A new product needs time to mature.
