  • How Apple Silicon Macs can supercharge computing in the 2020s

    Apple will be able to eat Windows OS shares this time. Two things. Apple Silicon Macs are rumored to last up to twenty hours on battery. And Pages, Numbers, and Keynote free applications are mature enough to be able to replace Word, Excel, and PowerPoints applications from Microsoft which are very expensive to own. 

    Pages, Numbers and Keynote will never replace Office. Thankfully, Office 365 is dirt cheap for what you get (esp the family plan) and it works on the Mac and iOS devices as well.

    Apple isn’t going to make gains in the PC and laptop market by offering software replacements for what people already use.

    They’re going to advance by making devices that run all their existing software, and do it better. And outside of the small number of people who run VMs or Bootcamp this is exactly what Apple Silicon will do.

    Think of the billion iPhone users and the fact most of them (90%) have a Windows machine. Now all their iOS software can also run on a Mac (and some Mac software will make it to iOS) which makes the concept of Continuity even more appealing (being able to seamlessly switch between their iPhone or Mac for everything, not just certain things).
    What I see is there are large number of PC users don't need to use all the functionalities of Microsoft Office software. They will transition to Macs. This is similar to the PC to smartphone transition. Many users simply use PC for emails to communicate with their children. After iPhone, they found they don't need to use their PC at all. And the iPad further accelerated the trend.

    I always wonder why the government of the “free world” heavily dependent on a communist country to reduced manufacturing costs. One of the reason why the USSR was “defeated” during Cold War was because, the “free world” was never dependent economic or otherwise to the USSR. 

    These days, our elected government leaders, leading industries, etc are heavily dependent on China’s CCP. 

    CCP government is playing a long game to elbow everyone out of competition. It is evident that the CCP China is elbowing out all their neighbors for territorial grab and if left uncheck, they will wreck the western world’s industries and they will impose their Communist ideologist upon the rest of the world. 

    Just my thought. 
    Because China is able to provide enough inexpensive qualified workers none other nations are able to imitate. I always wonder China communist party has never invade other nations but the freedom loving people around the world hate it so much for so long.

    Installed it today. I was greatly delighted by a new feature that even Apple does not talk about it. I have ten home screens. It was great pain to flip screen by screen to find an app in iOS 13. Now when you touch and hold the dots near the bottom of the screen a slider show up. I can easily slide to the desired screen. 
    For many versions of iOS, you slide screen to screen with the dots at the bottom - just no slider appeared.
    No, the UI is completely different. In the older versions you touch the dots to move to the NEXT screen.
