For us motion folks, watch this if you haven't yet. It's painful.

Opinion: Apple might be a money maker, but it's behind the curve on almost all of its products
- Clickbait article. Apple fails because they are in a lawsuit against Qualcomm. Funny.ArmandoEstrada
- I don't dislike Apple. They are a safe, conservative choice. Quality products.since1979
- Can't argue that they're the most cutting edge. Really never have except for a couple of brief moments. Product design is still the tits, for the most part.monospaced
- Today they jumped 6%, though. $$$!monospaced

Linus Torvalds recently suggested* that he figured one reason that ARM hasn't managed to significantly mess around with the Intel/x86 hegemony is that there isn't yet a preponderence of ARM-based platforms that people actually use as day to day machines, developing and creating on. Devs still use x86-based platforms to create, be it for x86 itself, ARM or anything else producible on a computer.
This sort of mirrors my own sentiments (read: mild jealousy) about the explosion of developer-centric apps and processes, much benefitting from the UNIX-like shell that took place on Apple over the past half/decade or so.
As a PC user, I've often been irritated by little widgets or single-function apps that get release on Apple today, and PC maybe tomorrow or, more likely, never.
As Balmer used to say: "Developers, Developers, Developers!"
That's not changed today, nor will any time soon.

Apple's disgracefully outdated Mac lineup is killing sales
Apple's Mac and MacBook lineup is, frankly, a disgrace. I can't think of another top-name brand demanding a premium price for hardware that is so outdated.- no fuckn shit, I'm currently using a macbook from 2013 and a tower from 2011, I can't fuckn code on an iphoneGeorgesII
- Same here, whole office wants to buy new ones but rumors of a complete shiny new macbook pro is holding all of us back.mekk
- yeah, new one without any ports lol, why are we even waiting,GeorgesII
- remember the days when jobs would introduce iphone, ipad, imac, and world's thinnest laptop all in one cycle.hotroddy
- i thought i saw a rumor of one without function keys, and talk that it will run amd processors on peta pixeldeathboy

- God, I hate this mouseinv
- the mouse feels like 10 poundshotroddy
- A heavy mouse is good for accuracy and fine movement. That's why I use a heavy Logitech. This Apple mouse is not tall enough for me.monospaced
- Uncomfortable in the handmonospaced
- to avoid 2 finger click you have to lift one of your finger.... ughhh i have to lift my finger?!?!?!pango
- Best mouse around. No more carpel tunnel for me.set

- Does anyone think that will sell? I am surprised they don't offer OS X (and follow MS's path). Maybe they are just slow (as usual).formed
- Not sure where you got this info but Apple did not announce a large iPad.monospaced

I would like a touchscreen monitor. If they can somehow make it matte, like Apple monitors used to be, to avoid fingerprints.
This would also give my crippled hand a break sometimes from using a mouse.
The use would be for non-professional stuff. Playing games, zooming in and out of maps, interactive porn where you can tap on a girls boobs and make them jiggle.
If they can get drawing capabilities with a wacom pen, that would be so great.

the only solution is one where you can manipulate what is on the screen without actually touching it
- Shoulder hovering the intern.pango
- That intern would be reduced to a quaking mass of uncontrollable sobs.Continuity
- like the Leap Motion? https://www.leapmoti…mekk

Now that I've been thinking about it. A touchscreen iMac would be super nice cause I eat a lot of sausages during my work day, and if I could eat sausages and in between bites use them to touch my screen to work fuck yeah I think we just stumbled upon the trifecta of workflow greatness.
- 1. Touch screen
2. Sausage
What is the trifecta?monospaced - 3. profittimeless

timeless - I have not heard of this tech. Can you send some links this way?

doc - ever look into buying a touchscreen bezel for your monitor and solving your own problem instead of waiting for someone else to solve it for you?
- docpoz0
You see, a lot of you are foolishly thinking like Apple.
It's NOT about losing the mouse and keyboard and going all touch.... no. It's about Mouse/Keyboard AND touch.
It's not one or another... it's about BOTH.
Cheers.
