  • Editorial: Intel CPU constraints are sign on the road to ARM chips in the Mac

    deminsd said:
    Everyone blaming Intel, yet it's Apple that insists on paper thin, fan-less laptop designs that defy physics on keeping them cool.  The rest of us (Windows users) enjoy the latest and greatest chips and hardware and increasing performance with 8th and 9th gen chips.  I'm fine with fans.  They come on when needed, and are silent otherwise.  I also like having the ability to remove a few screws and change / add more larger SSD's or memory. 

    10nm will be nice when it arrives, but I don't see it being Intel's fault that Apple cannot move forward in performance.
    It is Intel's fault 100%. Intel provided Apple, HP, Lenvo and others with the product map. specs, information and timelines for what they planned to make and when, so that they all could build new harder to take of advantage of Intels 'advanced' chips in designing their new hardware and now Intel can't deliver the goods.

  • Samsung delays launch of Galaxy Fold after review unit screen failures [u]

    78Bandit is on the right track.  

    This product, at least this version 1 edition, will be shuttered. The issues are too fundamental for it to be adjusted and then released.  Samsung is telling us a few weeks from now they will give us a new release date.  Nope.  Samsung will use this next three weeks to refund any deposits and attempt to quietly cancel any pre-orders.  Then they will make a very brief statement about working on the product and then we’ll hear nothing more.  

     At least, if they’re smart that’s what they’ll do.  
    Smart and Samsung are mutually exclusive. The rather basic and extremely important peeling screen issue alone should have prevented this product from ever seeing the light of day.

  • Apple payment to Qualcomm estimated at $6 billion, with $9 per iPhone sold in royalties

    I don't believe UBS knows anything factual, follow the money. It's all about spreading rumors to spur trading revenue as usual.

  • Editorial: How AirPods and Shortcuts shifted Apple's Siri story and blunted Amazon's Alexa...

    I would like Siri to be as easy to use as Alexa and for it to recognize most of my queries as intended, which isn't and doesn't. I have both, i could live without Alexa, which i do like, but i would be lost without Apple's highly integrated ecosystem.
