Why I'm Cool (but hopeful) on Apple's Rumored Headset
Editor's note: I will be referring to "VR" headsets, and I'm sure some will correct me that Apple is making an "MR" (mixed reality) headset. In my opinion, if you're not looking at the actual real world, it's a VR headset (and current

MacBook Pro
My prediction for this lineup was:
Those 2021 models are due for processor upgrades, but don't expect any form factor changes, this is a pure spec bump.

Novelty and the Apple Watch Ultra
Last week I posted by review of the Apple Watch Ultra, andI found it was a good pick for more people than just those who climb mountains or go diving.
But I personally didn't prefer it to the Series 7, largely due to a few things:

Let's have some fun and predict what's coming tomorrow!

Ranking Every Apple Watch
On the verge of the 8th generation Apple Watch announcement, I thought it would be fun to rank all the previous models from best to worst. My criteria for this ordering is based on how good it would have been for an average person to buy a new Apple Watch when each of these was

The Opposite of Small Business Saturday
On a pretty regular basis I’ll see someone write a thread or blog post about why they’re switching to all stock iPhone apps. The dream seems to be throwing all third party apps to the side and going all in on Apple stuff.

I went through all the posts to MacRumors in January
