Not here today, Bob. He got too excited over the Tuesday event and had to take a day off.

Apple have been consistently fooling the pundits recently.
BobBeach
16:25:57
I missed the show last week. For the record, my predictions were: a new Mac Studio, a new Studio Display, a new iPhine Sue and a new iPAd Air
DaveG
16:26:20
spot on Bob hahaha
Majikman
16:26:20
Yeah right Bob!!!
BobBeach
16:26:55
It’s true. So I win!
Windrider

Baseball
Majikman
16:27:23
Now your grasping guys
Majikman
16:28:19
Suely when they recorded they did not know how bad things could be at transmission.
BobBeach
16:30:15
The gree is very nice
DaveG
16:30:29
green looks really good
DaveG
16:30:46
not enough to switch I like my blue one
BobBeach
16:30:54
Yes, me too
Majikman
16:31:00
yes very jealous
Majikman
16:31:18
even a bit of envy
BobBeach
16:31:37
What a load of crap predictions! Glad I missed it 😂
ChuckJ
16:33:20
We will get to lessons learned in a minute
ChuckJ

(The iPhone is unofficially being dubbed "Romulan green"....by me.
BobBeach
16:36:29
Patrice won? What a fix
Windrider
16:36:44
You won & you did the tally...
Majikman
16:36:46

BobBeach

90% of stuff on MAc sites is rumour
BobBeach
16:40:30
Anyone planning to buy a Mac Studio?
ChuckJ
16:40:54
Only if i can send you the bill, BobBeach. :)
Windrider
16:40:54
@BobBeach, not here
BobBeach
16:41:38
I do fancy the new display to go with my MAcBook Pro 14”
Windrider
16:42:00
Replace the players with drones...
BobBeach
16:42:42
All my TV comes via the Apple TV now. So I’m keen for them to add more services
BobBeach
16:44:47
The latter
BobBeach
16:45:05
Yes, we love Severance
BobBeach
16:45:57
Yes just SE
Windrider
16:46:14
A15 in the new SE
BobBeach
16:46:26
No, the new SE has the latest 15 chip
Majikman
16:46:34
and 5g
Windrider
16:46:46
A slow 5G, though
BobBeach
16:48:02
I get 5g now in our village since they erected a new mast
Windrider
16:48:31
5G was activated on my service three days ago.
BobBeach
16:49:03
BUt it’s not fast where I am. Too far from the mast
BobBeach
16:50:20
Apple is already making zillions from the iPhone. They don’t a cheap and nasty phone
Windrider
16:50:59
Latest 5G test in my area• DOWNLOAD 281 Mbps + UPLOAD 33.5 Mbps
BobBeach
16:51:20
Nice Windrider !
Majikman
16:51:45
Difficult to make 30% mark up on cheap phone
Windrider
16:52:26
A year ago, in an upstairs hotel room in a regional city I saw over 400 Mbps on G4 LTE
BobBeach
16:54:42
No mini-LED
BobBeach
16:55:18
I agree patrice , it’s really excellent
BobBeach
16:55:40
If I don’t already have the M1 Pro, I’d get one
BobBeach
16:58:53
No Mac Studio first
BobBeach
16:59:46
£1500 in the UK for the standard display
Windrider
17:00:43
The Thunderbolt port is needed to connect the Mac to the Studio Display
Windrider
17:01:21
$2500 in Oz Micro Pesos for the base model Studio Display
BobBeach
17:01:27
I want the new display to go with my MacBook Pro 14”
BobBeach
17:06:21
If I had the money (I don’t) I’d order the M1 Ultra Mac Studio today!
Majikman
17:07:26
would a doubled ultra be the m² chip
Windrider
17:07:31
The Mac studio with M1 Max is considerably lighter than the Ultra model because the former uses an aluminium heatsink with the latter has a big lump of copper to dissipate the heat
DaveG
17:07:39
Agree bobbeach amazing machine
Majikman
17:08:36
I bet their really happy now with the studio ultra
BobBeach
17:09:52
I prefer shopping in my Porsche
ChuckJ
17:10:22
What color, BobBeach?
Windrider
17:11:02
Take the 24-in iMac, bung in an M2 & a bigger screen...
Windrider
17:12:55
M1s are restricted to 2 Thunderbolt ports. To get more Thunderbolt ports you need a Max or an Ultra. Perhaps the M2 will support more ports
BobBeach
17:13:27
Almost certainly will Windrider
Majikman
17:13:44
m² = next step Ultra, then m² pro, m² max and finally m² ultra.
Majikman
17:14:23
More power than the Apollo moon landings!!
Windrider
17:14:52
Mac Studio as a server??/
ChuckJ
17:15:36
Fun to speculate on, for sure.
BobBeach
17:17:35
Come back Callum!
BobBeach
17:18:18
Been using Yoink for ages
Windrider
17:18:25
I tried Yoink years ago. Horrid thing.
Windrider
17:19:44
Setapp: PhotosRevive. It creates colorised images from black & white images
ChuckJ
17:20:27
Try it again, Windrider. Once again, it depends on what you do as to how useful it is for you.
BobBeach
17:21:36
I’m hoping season will be a lot better than season 1
Windrider
17:21:54
Part of the problem I had with Yoink was even with the app deleted, updates would show up in the Mac app store. That won't be a problem in Setapp, I hope.
BobBeach
17:22:06
Q appeared at the end of season 1
ChuckJ
17:22:43
I haven't seen any issues, Windrider.
BobBeach
17:22:58
Sorry for the spoiler DaveG !
Majikman
17:23:00

ChuckJ

BobBeach
17:30:42
Thank goodness
Majikman
17:31:11

ChuckJ
17:31:23
LOL
BobBeach
17:31:51
Which is even more boring than baseball!
Majikman
17:32:16
No, no no, I really enjoy it now.
Majikman
17:32:51

BobBeach
17:33:51

Majikman
