I've had AirPods since the original design, then the original AirPods Pro, and AirPods 3 (I think). I gave up using them because they are too easily lost, but mostly because they are not as reliable as wired EarPods. 

Thanks to the whole Convid debacle, I had to use Zoom to conduct business as a counselor, and when I used the wireless headphones, they would drop off line or connect with my iPhone right in the middle of a session instead of remaining connected to my iPad. Talk about frustrating !!! Every time a glitch happened, the flow of the session got derailed. So, I have gone back to using EarPods. 

Granted they are not as convenient in some ways as the wireless AirPods, but they are 100% reliable . . . and far less expensive--$19 for a pair that will last many months. 

Gruber has no one to blame but himself for losing access to Apple executives. He shot himself in the foot by making the comment involving "Cheetos", which I am not going to repeat here. Gruber's comment was crude, disgusting, and completely uncalled for. He had to know he was going to pay for what he said. 

Apple rounds the actual display size of the new iMacs to 24", but it is actually 23.5", so 2" inches larger than the 21.5" iMac. 

If Apple's going to round up to 24", then it should do the same for the "21.5" one, i.e., 22". Be consistent Apple.

Per Apple's Product Environmental Report for the new mini, while "sleeping", it uses 0.5W. During "idle with display on", the mini uses 4W. 

Granted, that's not zero power used, but it's darned low. The only way to get the mini to use zero electricity is to  unplug it, because it consumes a monstrously large 0.1W powered off and plugged in.  

A symbol is *not* the thing being symbolized. Why are people scared of a drawing of a pistol?

Txitter may be "an irrelevance" to Xbit and others, but it is still used by millions.
