Apple Event on March 4: Here's What to Expect

[Malarkey]

How about a display with multiple layers to create and simulate depth?

A wonder what this really is as Apple usually do not do 2.5 weeks notice for product launches? Or do they?

That is what I thought. No launch, I think. A prototype sort of thing at the most. The two lenses at top and bottom of the logo must have some significance.

OS 27 Sliced Glass.
Multiple UI layers to chooranging from total translucency to total opaqueness.

I'm excited about them revealing a brand new CEO. THAT would be innovation!

Finally, the release of an all-glass MacBook. Much more recyclable than aluminum. This should drive applecare+ sales through the roof!

Surround from streaming services including Apple is highly compressed. Pop in a Blu Ray and the difference is stunning.

What's the point of DTS if it's compressed?

I think the point is, some people are watching movies stored on in-house NAS systems, using apps on the Apple TV like Plex or Infuse - these can have audio that isn't highly compressed. Passthrough would allow that audio to, well, pass through from the source to the TV / home theater system. And as to supporting all the modern Dolby/DTS formats, that also makes it so as those become available from streamers, they'll be supported by the hardware.

Expecting to see M5 MacBook Air along with the new MacBook Pro and the new lower priced A series MacBook. Also think the new iPad Air and 17e will be announced. Hopefully the colors on the new MacBook will be bright.

COURAGE

How about a new Apple TV?! It's been 4 years.

What more could they really do with the Apple TV other than put in a faster processor and/ or more RAM? That being said, this is pretty much what we've seen with most new Apple products lately - just more of the same thing.

What products are you "starting to look at Windows/ Android products again as I get tired of waiting for all these rumoured products" ?

The ASUS Zenbook Duo - dual touch screens with a detachable keyboard. It can act as a tablet, a dual screen laptop, or a traditional laptop. Apple wants you to buy multiple products for your daily driving. I'd rather just have one centralized device I can dock and undock depending on where I am or what I'm doing.

Also, the Khadas Mind is a really cool product. It's a very portable modular computer that can be a desktop, a laptop, a gaming computer, and in the future, a touchscreen tablet as well.

I've already ditched my Apple watch because it really has stagnated. You're stuck with the same tired boring watch faces, and the activity tracking/ wellness is better on the Garmin to be honest.

I need a new Mac mini and we've been strung along long enough. I hope Apple reconsiders their exorbitant storage pricing.
