Finaly some news from Apple about the MBP ...
No I am just kidding, again some new emojis:
Apple adds 100 emoji to latest iOS 10 beta​
 
iPad Pro is the new Computer
100s new emojis
is this really happening?

I've been playing around with ubuntu mate for a while now. Linux has come A LONG LONG way. I'd say for casual to normal users there is NO excuse to NOT give FREE linux a try nowadays. Hardware compatibility is top notch, installation is a breeze and within minutes I'm online, even - if I want to - with full encryption of my sensible data and internet traffic.

If I can somehow replace Indesign with Scribus, Illustrator with Inkscape and Photoshop with Gimp (even though I shudder at the thought of transitioning) I've no need to either stick with apple or ms anymore.

Give it a try folks.

PS: It's beautiful too (ubuntu mate) and sports a complete "look package" to make it look like different distros of linux OR like windows (with classic start menue and all) OR like macOS (sporting a wonderful dock too).
 

Let the flame war start. Get your caustic and flame retardant equipment ladies and gentlemen. This isn't going to be pretty. I bet poor Timmy will start getting death threats now that we have the first clue about the Mac lineup.

Lol I have to send mine too. I honestly love when Apple does something like this just for the drama and uproar it generates in "enthusiast" communities like this.
 
The Dalrymple Report: 38: With Special Guest Christina Warren

A couple miinto the podcast they start talking about it.

Edit:starts at 5:20
He just says that he thinks they'll want to keep focus on iPhones because "September is iOS time." This isn't the best logic to me. I could see if he had sources tell him that there would not be Mac announcements in September, because I know his sources to be good. But he's not citing any sources here.

There are two ways this plays out. Macbook Pro gets announced in September alongside the iPhone or Macbook Pro and other Macs get updated at their own event in October. Any later than that, and I'll start to wonder if Apple is having developmental issues with their Macs.

Does he ever cite sources though? It's always "I think so, and I believe," and more often than not, he's right. But yeah, my bet is October now. Sad really.

Typically it's a curt, Yep or Nope. And while he doesn't cite a particular source, he is extremely reliable. So people know him to be well-sourced.
 
Jim Dalrymple also says "I like it" about the "What's a Computer?" Ad, so it's pretty clear that he doesn't tell the truth.
When it goes to Apple Dalrymple is the best informed journalist, and most reliable.

I think we have to wait to October for next event with computer hardware.
 
He is just assuming things just as she is. He thinks it will steal the storm of the iPhone. While she things it will fuel some excitement for apple again because the phone won't be much different.
So its just an opinion really he doesnt have anything to back it up just his own thoughts like any of us....
Am i the only one that things its sexy when girls talk tech news?
