Apple's upcoming low-cost MacBook: Colorful and affordable
greg.edwards69 said:So it's a large ipad, with a fixed keyboard, no touch screen and runs MacOS. It will sell by the bucketload.
Personally, I'd love to see Apple revisit the 12" MacBook with this processor instead. It was a brilliant design, just hampered by dreadful performance. -

Lighter than normal WWDC expected without significant Apple Intelligence upgrades

Steve had backup plans, not to mention very thorough practice sessions. Once, a Mac had froze and he had to switch to a backup one, joking about it with grace.
(Aside: When will AppleInsider fix this broken forum software? Daily headaches)OMG, the "infomercial" format has to go. Either do a real conference or just release the content on Monday morning, the pretending that it's a week-long event when it's just videos is a bit much, especially when other companies are doing live keynotes. We're so far from WWDC of old - old being just a few years ago. -
Tantalizing details of Jony Ive's AI device leak after OpenAI meeting
avon b7 said:My guess is a thin (very thin?) puck-like device with a thin (very thin?) LED strip around the base.
Brushed metal (caressible) or glass (lickable).
Internal wireless connectivity (no ports) and using mics/speakers from other devices.
Cloud processing plus subscription. Bingo!
Honesty, the 'sci-fi dream' is what it's always been: AI with an interface of some kind. Ideally voice and a screen. That's it.
Would a humanoid robot be a plus? Yes for some situations, but if it's going to sell in hundreds of millions, I'll rule that option out.
