I got as far as the fast flash in the new Mac Maxi and had to give up. The stream is freezing up here more than a Fermi card.

I liked what I managed to see of Mavericks. Not so sure about the name change though. Kinda preferred Sea Lion. Good to see iBooks on OS X. Was kinda stupid that you could buy a book on a Mac but not view it.

iWork online is pretty awesome.

Agreed, iBooks, much like correcting the full screen issue, should have been fixed a while ago.

keyboard looks nice

So the rumor from this morning was spot on

The mock up was spot on.

About the dots. The icons still look better than the mockup that hit the front page.

Also missed animation and parallax scrolling and transparency, obviously.

anyone else find it a tad bit annoying they called the intel xeon chip on the mac pro a "256-bit Intel Xeon" chip?....... if you know the internals of all the Intel CPU's you know where they got this number from but it's not what they are insinuating....

i cant figure it out. anyone care to enlighten me on Apple's futuristic processor?

It's a 64 bit processor with a 256 bit memory architecture, which has been the case with Xeon's for a while now.

Gone is steve jobs obsession with tweaking until it reaches his ideal of "perfect" before it sees the light of day.

Clearly you never saw the first iPhone. :laugh:

    • EA launches in-game advertising platform for brands to "connect with audiences"

      By Big John Studd · Posted

      Yeah, this is absolutely nothing new and EA have done it before. Burnout Paradise, released in 2008, had dynamic advertising billboards that were updated via the internet and targeted people based on location and what EA knew about them from their profile. It was particularly notable for the fact that the Obama presidential campaign ran ads in the game, in an attempt to reach a younger audience who didn't watch broadcast TV any more. It was by no means the first though. Battlefield 2142 from 2006 had the same thing. In fact, Neowin wrote a story about it back then. https://www.neowin.net/news/ba...-in-game-ads-clarification/
    • Apple MacBook Neo is a blessing for Windows users, here's why

      This is obviously aimed at the education where Apple has lost so much ground to Chromebooks in the last few years, but unless they come up with a comparable management system for education why would anyone switch back?
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Here's how we arrived at that claim: Note that this is just Play Store downloads. The app is also available on the Galaxy App Store
    • Samsung is shutting down yet another app used by millions

      By +Edouard · Posted

      Google Play states the app had more than 50 million downloads. What other metric do you suggest should be used?
    • what other retro software do yall use

      MSN defined our generation in some ways, kind of like Snapchat and TikTok have done for future generations. I have great memories of the MSN era in the late 90s / early 2000s. In the UK everyone seemed to come home from School and go on MSN for the evening. We didn't really have mobile phones then, so other than going and knocking on your friends door it was a totally new way of interacting with people. I also loved how I could talk to people I’d met playing online games from around the world. Inviting people to NetMeeting and messing about with the shared white board and webcams was pretty fun, even if webcams only ran at a couple of fps over dial-up. All the random things you could do with MsgPlus! were really fun - I suspect that made a few people jump with /shello randomly blasting Mr Hankey out their speakers! Maybe I’m just nostalgic, however I do feel the internet and computers were more fun back then.
