Why not connect just a cheap second monitor?

Sorry
DeepPan

Bob, replace your Mac with a chromebook and do it really cheap! :D

I have a two screen setup: iMac and Thunderbolt display
GBRedneck

Apple following the Microsoft model, move away from the traditional income, focus on services and get it on every possible platform

I'd be really interested in noise cancelling Airpods but $260 (which will probably be £260) !
GBRedneck
17:02:16
given up on airpods
bobbeach
17:02:19
They need some nanobots to repair the Airpods
DeepPan
17:04:02
possible plastics for new airpods pro? https://9to5mac.com/2019/10/18/airpods-pro-price-rumor/
bobbeach
17:04:14
Mine have been flawless too.
GBRedneck
17:06:19
i dont agree with muller much but on the airpods he's spot on!
bobbeach
17:06:44
I still find it weird when you see someone walking down the street apparently talking to themselves, until you see the Airpods in their ears.
bobbeach
17:07:29
and you realise they are having a phone conversation
brett

When a Thunderbolt3 hub loves a Thunderbolt2 hub very much, they do a special dance together, and make lots of little Thunderbolt hubs
DeepPan
17:17:27
unless they cheat on each other, and have firewire hubs! :D

The Neo looked good until they showed the flip over plastic keyboard
DeepPan
20:44:27
These smaller/lighter/cheaper devices will get more popular as Windows desktop in Azure becomes more popular, computing as a subscription service
DeepPan
20:45:09
Android is just a platform, making it easier to get Microsoft services to more people
DeepPan
20:47:53
these 2 screen devices are purely for enterprise
DeepPan
20:49:33
The Neo runs Windows10X, the Duo runs Android with a Windows skin
DeepPan
20:51:18
Microsoft is developing their apps to run on any platform, already has in most cases
