Biggest news out of the WWDC today is the long awaited merger of IOS, iPadOS and MacOS.

They’re going to have a similar platform no matter what Mac you run. Convergence of the mobile and desktop platforms are here.

I like the mac hardware but not the OS. I have a mac that can boot into windows 10. If they move to ARM, guessing that option goes away. I have an 11 year old mac that is still going strong. It’s outlived many other desktops and laptops. I did swap out the hard drive, but that’s all I’ve had to do.

I sure wish Microsoft felt that way. My Windows 98 machine is acting up again.

Linus Tech Tips at Youtube showed they could increase mac laptop performance by just cooling it better.

New Macs with Intel chips are still "in the pipeline" and the company is planning to support Intel-based MacOS computers for "years," despite announcing Arm-based Apple silicon. —PING!


Apple ARM Based Macs Announced,
but Intel Macs Will Still Continue
PING!

If you want on or off the Apple/Mac/iOS Ping List, Freepmail me.
