M4 Mac mini rumored to get a redesign making it smaller than ever before
Back in the spring when I realized there would be no new Macs at WWDC, I bought a refurbished m2 pro Mac mini to replace my 27 inch iMac.mike1 said:What would be the 24" - 27" monitor of choice to pair this with these days? Anything out there remotely as good as an iMac display but less expensive than a Studio monitor?I initially bought a Dell monitor to go with it, thinking it was a great deal relative to the Apple studio display. I was horrified by it. It looked so much worse than my iMac when I saw them side by side. I sent back the Dell and shelled out the money for the Apple. The web cam is as poor as reviews say, but the most important thing by far is the display quality.Maybe Apple will make a less expensive 24 inch display….

Apple stock getting hammered after international market crashes
As I keep saying... the geopolitical situation with Xi vs. Taiwan creates a great deal of risk for AAPL that I don't think is adequately reflected in the share price.
I give credit to Apple for trying to mitigate that risk by moving some production to India and growing their services business, but the risk is still there and it's big.
Another thing I'd like to see Apple do is sign on as a customer to Intel's foundry business with their 18A process. Apple could start using them in a limited way for ACDC just to see if Intel can deliver. And if they can, then having Intel as a second source for silicon fabrication would be a huge de-risker.

Apple's Jeff Williams takes another secret overseas trip, this time to China
I’m mildly curious as to what the “correct understanding” is. Is it that Taiwan, The Philippines, and Japan are provinces of China and always have been?
