- Cook is so grey and bland no-one would notice if he did leave.face_melter
- funny, any other company would froth to do the numbers Cook has done whilst he's been CEO. Though for Apple fanboys he's considered a failure...inteliboy
- I don't think anyone can argue with the big numbers, but they're falling and fall is the same regardless of how big the numbers are.craigatkinson
- intelli, knowing companies like apple have products ready a minimum of two years before launch, I believe tim cook's been riding the last of S. Jobs geniusGeorgesII
- perhaps, you're probably right. but when steve jobs was around, everyone also bitched and whined about him too.inteliboy
- It actually will be a sad day if/when people aren't whining about Apple, because then it means no one cares anymore.inteliboy

- Wifi problems are probably software, but wow.section_014

My iphone 7 screen doesnt turn off when I make calls. So when I call people its constantly turning speaking and facetime on. How do I fix this piece of shit phone? Is there something in the settings I need to tweak?
- go to an apple store, they'll probably give you a new phoneinteliboy
- How come all your Apple products are complete failures? How is that possible that you alone have only lemons ?monospaced
- he's not alonePonyBoy

- or just use the headphones on the laptop because music syncs to it?monospaced
- it's not going to help sales, that's for suremonospaced
- I can tell you this, and in a calm and professional manner, my MBP will need an upgrade in 1-2 yrs...prophetone
- ...there is no way I am going to suddenly deal with all this hassle (at left) after dropping $3k, it's not even funny but it is a joke (to professionals)prophetone
- It feels (to me) like the days I messed around with scsi type conversion adapters/terminators for my G3 Lombard and tower - like they hopped back to 2001prophetone
- It think indeed it will help sales - for Dell and Lenovoprophetone
- Who listens to music from their iPhone? I don't connect to the companies wifi and listen to music through iTunes on the computer.kona
- However, this is straight up bullshit. All those Apple commercials focusing on doing away with wires, 10 years later, an obscene amount of wires.kona
- I can deal with the death of the HDMI slot, as it's rarely needed and when it is it's set and forget or infrequent, and even the SD card slot (sort of)...prophetone
- ...but not leaving a single USB port to allow prof users to continue to use their $$$ USB peripherals in an unaltered workflow is insanity, it's a brick wallprophetone
- You either get on board and re-invest in all new peripherals (is impossible - i.e.: Maschine?) or you MUST remember to have a pocket full of dongles hahahaprophetone
- But let's say you're a prof 'n dive into 'the future' w/ ALL USB-C periphs to avoid dongles, but collab with others... you'll still need dongles as backup lolprophetone
- @kona, the phone syncs wirelessly, and they are promoting wireless headphones, so they are pushing the no-wires thing, just prematurely sortamonospaced
- I bet Trump uses Apple. Brexit uses Apple. Xzibit uses Apple, he put a dongle in your dongle so you can dongle while you dongle.craigatkinson
- it's annoying. but i'm gonna get a single usb-c hub. shock horror. How they fucked FCP those years back was far more rage inducing for me.inteliboy

Im thinking about getting the mid level Mac Mini instead of the new MBP. I don't do heavy video work, so I should be good, right?
- Minis, even the hobbled dual CPU ones that are currently available will do OK with video as long as you've got fast disks and lots of RAM.evilpeacock
- Automatic proxy management in modern NLEs makes even old machines usable for video nowadays.evilpeacock
- Im not a video guy. But heavy with PS, AI, IND.desmo
- mac minis havent been updated in forever. get the laptop********
- Unless you're running a media center only avoid the miniHayoth

Through education, in the UK, for the new MBP with equivalent spec to my 2015 MBP, plus apple care, it's £3200. Non-education would be over £3500. Apple care used to be £59 for education, it's now £150. Dongle, £9, upgrades to SSD, processor, graphics...Bloody madness. That's over £1000 more than what I paid.
Been trying a windows 10 machine the last few days. Fucking hell. Really tried hard to like it, infact I do like it, a lot, but windows 10 is a bastard of a shambles. So it seems Apple have us by the gonads or by the pussy if you're trump.
- Saying you both like Win10 and it's "bastard of a shambles" is rather contradictory. :)ETM
- There are aspects of it that I like but overall, it is as stated!craigatkinson
- what is so good about Apple OS? I wish I got this, I only use Apple nowadays but the OS is nothing special. What do you do?fadein11
- p.s. see video below.fadein11
- I didn't say there was anything good about OS. However, the fact it works helps, or at least works compared to W10.craigatkinson
- not arguing here - just wondering what you hated about windows 10 because all I hear is good things. I'm considering jumping ship also next purchase of laptopfadein11
- I'd sooner have a vanilla android computer if there was such a thing. I'm sure Google will make a decent chromebook / pixel pro or something soon.craigatkinson
- love android but not on a computer thank youfadein11
- now im curious because so many posts and no actual grievances craig. what are things u like and dont like?********
- fadein, little but annoying things. Plug into a screen and res is all over place because w10 cant manage a screen lower than that on the comp. for egcraigatkinson
- deathboy, like the options, versatility, feels more 'open' than apple, easier for kids to use too from school POV, like the touch optioncraigatkinson
- dislike the buggy bits. resolution, text render, settings resetting, general speed of things...Shame because the machine is great, W10 not socraigatkinson
- the surface p4 I'm not sure I can fault thoughcraigatkinson
- text render doesnt bother me in the slightest. but win10 is a bit buggy. a bit more dumbed down too. i see more bugs on laptop than desktop.********
- Settings resetting bug me. Especially because there the dumb shit like updates. They went retard on that stuff. An update hosed a bios on a board for me.********
- Hate the idea of touch. Maybe if on the move with surface but they need to get windows ink dialed in with wacoms.********
- Besides the the bugs which seem par for course these days, my biggest grief is how they dumbed aspects of it down and made it so spy ish. have to turn somuchoff********

iOS 10 is such a pile. Since updating to it it keeps randomly deleting wifi settings. Not even on a restart. It's just drops them randomly. ALL of them.
Every network I frequent I have to now rejoin with credentials constantly. My cell data bill is through the roof because I keep losing wifi without realizing it. I turn cell data off for now and I keep finding it back on again, not even after a restart.
It's a wide spread issue and Apple keeps saying to just restart your device or it's a router problem. Really? Every router I've ever connected with suddenly has problems? And the thousands of online complaints to the same are a coincidence? Even people with AirPort?
And this is far from the first wifi issue after an update they have had where they deny and take forever to release a fix. How hard is testing wifi to the nth degree before releasing?
So done. Surface Pro and Google Pixel time.
TL;DR - Apple = toilet
- 'Apple = toilet' love it.detritus
- Surface Pro.sted
- see belowcraigatkinson
- Android is great, I don't regret the move at all.section_014
- @ETM whats your experience of Win10? Esp using external monitors?craigatkinson
- Driver support is better. A lot of the people who had early issue had one vid port on-board and the other an after market card. Not had issues with most...ETM
- ... dual-head cards.ETM
- seems to be an issue with scaling though on lower res screens than the sp4 screencraigatkinson
- Ah, thought you just meant win10 and dual displays in general. Not using SP4 specifically as the source.ETM
- win10 with a second display of lower res than the main one.craigatkinson
- Not had that issue. You can adjust the dpi scaling of each monitor independently.ETM

- Nice. Even has the Apple pricing. $199 for the small version.desmo
- Next year they'll take some pages out, make it a bit thinner, lighter.craigatkinson

- And how it turned to shit a little after ten yearsfuturefood
- The last 300 pages are just photocopies of the previous 50 with some numbers changed.face_melter
- Maybe its also a coffee tablesureshot
- they have lost itd_gitale
- it's just a book ... it could have the highest quality build and printing and still wouldn't justify a $300 tagmonospaced
