◼ ► What do you build again. Your for your car to slow. There are some quick follow up about guess what the macro. [TS]
◼ ► Well come on we did like a whole episode and we can't. There's not going to be zero follow up. [TS]
◼ ► No no I'd sign after we record last episode. Someone took it apart I think it was first O.-W. See and. [TS]
◼ ► And then everyone else. Jump on the reporting of it but basically they discovered that the macro C.P.U. Is socketed. [TS]
◼ ► And everyone told me hey you can buy the C.P.U. You wanted. So. And you know. More more useful if everyone else. [TS]
◼ ► In all my history of building my own computers back another P.C. Guy. And then ever since then owning Macs. [TS]
◼ ► Very far usually by the time. There's there are C.P.U.'s that are substantially faster than what you have. [TS]
◼ ► They either need a new socket or they need a different. Chipset on the motherboard of a need to use a faster bus or. [TS]
◼ ► You know more than what your board can do something like that usually within the socket that you have on your board [TS]
◼ ► Usually it's not really worth any upgrades that are available for it within that little narrow range so. [TS]
◼ ► It also was pretty hard to get to it requires pretty substantial disassembly of the whole thing including filling with [TS]
◼ ► some very very small precise ribbon cables and stuff that connect all the big boards together so it's not something. [TS]
◼ ► What makes it a little bit different in this case is. There is a pretty vast difference in core counts. [TS]
◼ ► That that'll be a big a big difference in parallel performance but even then like Singletary before [TS]
◼ ► So it's it's probably not going to be worth it for almost anybody to actually do this let's not forget the. [TS]
◼ ► That all of the correct contact is made between all the right parts to keep things cool because bad things can happen [TS]
◼ ► if it's not and. It's a type of thing you get good at if you do it a lot but most of us don't you know. [TS]
◼ ► Don't do this for a living don't build computers for a living to upgrade computer for a living so how many computers do [TS]
◼ ► In every single one of them it's not a skill that I count among the things that I'm confident I can do on. [TS]
◼ ► You know I've I've replaced heat sinks on graphics card itself out of that I hand full of times of my life [TS]
◼ ► and I certainly don't want to crack open this. Five seven ten thousand dollar trash can cylinder. Yank out the C.P.U. [TS]
◼ ► and Put another one maybe when the thing is like five years old and I feel like it's depreciated [TS]
◼ ► You don't have to do this stuff you just buy a to comes out of the box it's pretty everything's in the works. [TS]
◼ ► And you use it. Also there is a lot of of value in keeping your computer with the stock. Apple parts. [TS]
◼ ► You know you anyone who's been around Apple long enough has has heard stories about how people say. [TS]
◼ ► US from Apple and they get rejected because of us third party RAM in it or that will take their party ran out [TS]
◼ ► Something like that like having third party RAM is always is always a little bit questionable whenever you need Apple [TS]
◼ ► service and. And having a non-standard or upgraded C.P.U. In there. They probably wouldn't notice. [TS]
◼ ► Even if something broke that they should cover and otherwise would cover. That might cause problems for you and so. [TS]
◼ ► And also you know what if things go a little bit wrong what if your computer just being a little bit unstable. [TS]
◼ ► or You didn't remount the thing properly. You never know and so you have all these things that. [TS]
◼ ► You know I putting in some third party thing. Or the gain is maybe you used in the life by a little bit longer like. [TS]
◼ ► I don't know it's in most cases to not worth it especially now like you know it's that in the RAM example. [TS]
◼ ► Apple's RAM pricing in the last few years actually gotten pretty competitive. It's not the cheapest. [TS]
◼ ► But the price difference between Apple and anybody else of actual good quality like would have you see. [TS]
◼ ► Crucial the price difference between those is not that big for most configurations for RAM so it actually is pretty [TS]
◼ ► It's pretty pretty possible to get pay Apple's price and and and be set. You know for a while at that. [TS]

◼ ► Some people to know how we really going straight to macro talk we're not going to do anything I guess a prime expense. [TS]
◼ ► I put I threw something in there because of the reviewing apples twenty thirty give it a blog post about it because [TS]
◼ ► this is the first show of the new year so you know. Why not talk about last year. How Dapple did last year. [TS]
◼ ► I am all for that John thank you first for writing at least a small or a pretty brief oasis of not. [TS]
◼ ► They did on the REMEMBER MY APPLE twenty thirteen to do list posts from early in twenty thirteen. No I did. [TS]
◼ ► or like the things that are wrong with their current products a lot of different angles a tech sites take at the. [TS]
◼ ► And the angle of tech is being of last year was. Let me make a to do this like I was to give. [TS]
◼ ► Tim Cook this list and say here's what you got to do this year and you're not going to put crazy stuff on it [TS]
◼ ► but like make me a hoverboard or you know stuff like that because that's not actionable. Right. [TS]
◼ ► And I'm not trying to predict what will Apple do like a rumor site here's what we think Apple will do next year give us [TS]
◼ ► a totally different exercise I was trying to make a list of things that I think are feasible. [TS]
◼ ► But that Apple should do it so it's a To Do list for them they should just go down during the year make sure you do all [TS]
◼ ► By the end of the year to go back and see how they did and so that's what I did it is look. [TS]
◼ ► or wish list it's very straightforward stuff so I just want to go through them because they're pretty quick. [TS]
◼ ► Ship boss ten ten point nine and I was seven. Like you know. Keep doing that stuff that you're doing. [TS]
◼ ► It's got to be on the to listen because think about think of it this way. Like going on a limb I was seven. [TS]
◼ ► I also gave these items letter grade so if one of those things that is asked her thought yeah you did that you ship [TS]
◼ ► They weren't so that's why I don't have a bone to pick I think you're suffering a little bit from grade inflation here [TS]
◼ ► and so you know I sort of thought harder of people are doing the grades because it's kind of like ratings on game [TS]
◼ ► People leaving comments like you know that they get to get a agree with some of the Harvard soon as you attach a number [TS]
◼ ► a letter greater number of stars people like this is totally not a nine point seven five three it's a nine point seven [TS]
◼ ► and they'll just argue forever about the same way you argue about grades this is not an A minus is definitely an A [TS]
◼ ► That's all people can see even you so much will get to your disagreement as we get these invite him [TS]
◼ ► but do you think the a minus is unwarranted for ten and I was seven. No I think I think actually that's actually. [TS]
◼ ► and all the options they're adding and. That's a sign as you wrote in your post like as we talk about the show. [TS]
◼ ► Once you start having to add options and stuff that's a sign that maybe you didn't eloquent the first time [TS]
◼ ► and a lot of the times know no series of options. Will fix the fundamental flaw in the philosophy of your design. [TS]
◼ ► Options are kind of a quick fix but it's kind of push pull something that one thing in over here [TS]
◼ ► and you push the thing in it's kind of you don't end up with a nicely shaped sort of product in the end you end up with [TS]
◼ ► some cloth of lumps. And so I was seventy why has a couple of those minor wartimes by throwing a minus. You know. [TS]
◼ ► That's a vague item about I didn't want to be a particular specific idea just gotta do something is going to be more [TS]
◼ ► Last year's model a new one you have to diversify and I've been talking about that for years. [TS]
◼ ► And they kind of did that I guess by going with plastic and stuff and they've been a little bit bigger battery [TS]
◼ ► and I feel like there's an untapped potential in a purpose built second tier i Phone So maybe the next run out at [TS]
◼ ► I don't even know if Apple going to break that down we have to wait for their earnings calls but it seems like. [TS]
◼ ► Like the lines that all the people lining up the early adopters obviously they're going to want the fancy phone. [TS]
◼ ► or whatever what about over the long term deal just wander into the store and want to replace their i Phone [TS]
◼ ► and i Phone for the first time maybe they're all buying five C S I don't even know if Apple give us that breakdown [TS]
◼ ► but I don't. This this. To do item is not predicated on the particular success that my merely that it has to exist. [TS]
◼ ► I'm sure Apple will tweak the pricing the power in the mix I think they can diversify further in fact I haven't made a [TS]
◼ ► Can I create a twenty fourteen to do list for you but includes one item of creating a twenty four team list for Apple. [TS]
◼ ► You can create it and then you have to wait a year to write me on how well I did and how I compass that. [TS]
◼ ► I can be patient. You know. We can you. I already gave up. I already bought the macro for God's sake. Yeah. Seriously. [TS]
◼ ► Sell for the next item was I keep the i Pad on track. Which is a boring one. But it's something you have to do. [TS]
◼ ► You can't because if that's not on the journalist you go through the year I did everything and is use the right guys. [TS]
◼ ► And that Tim Cook says No you forgot to put out i Pad updates. So Paris is pretty great the i Pad Mini one retina. [TS]
◼ ► and it's kind of creepy that they're still selling it for that price even though there are customers for it again I [TS]
◼ ► think a purpose built model for that market we better and the i Pad Air really really needs more RAM like. [TS]
◼ ► That's the one thing keeping you from not the one thing keep me from buying the i Pad ever one of the many things [TS]
◼ ► They didn't bump the RAM up over the i Pad for an I think even that had three always have a gigabyte. [TS]
◼ ► The ones I was kind of talking about where the portables where they did finally put the you know the iris Prograf ICS. [TS]
◼ ► Deliveries are at this point extremely limited as disappointing. So where to talk about giving up on retina. [TS]
◼ ► This turned out to be a particularly controversial want to make messages work correctly and. And I'm. [TS]
◼ ► But then I reference I message I was mostly talking about the application messages that's on the Mac. [TS]
◼ ► I think it's probably called messages on the phone to but i Message just what people think of it when I use it [TS]
◼ ► and it appears on one else's screen you have a little conversation with little bubbles is basically the replacement for [TS]
◼ ► and I said you go thank those who was in semester kind of got to work. And as I said in their report card here. Is it. [TS]
◼ ► It's hard for me to tell because I don't have a strong presented a survey of every single person who's using messages [TS]
◼ ► But in my own personal experience and in the experience of the people who send me e-mail tweet at me [TS]
◼ ► and then people who I know there are still routinely really embarrassing dumb problems with messages like messages [TS]
◼ ► It's it's it's kind of a degree of difficulty to have a situation where OK So in some crazy obscure situation with [TS]
◼ ► Just from one person to another one MAC to another having a simple conversation where you type something it appears [TS]
◼ ► and I type something appears and it can't even handle that correctly. And that's why I give them a D. [TS]
◼ ► Because their task was make messages work regularly I think they still haven't done it I still retain Lisi reports from [TS]
◼ ► And it's not as though the end of the world is not deleting all my data it's not it's not you know hosing my hard drive [TS]
◼ ► If you think you clicked on a conversation start typing and don't realize until you know a minute [TS]
◼ ► or two later that you're actually having a totally different conversation he said something you didn't want to say in [TS]
◼ ► that window or things being out in the wrong order not being able to make sense of all conversations [TS]
◼ ► or messages like inserting themselves up into your history or losing your entire scroll back. Those. [TS]
◼ ► but at this point the basics should be sorted out and I've used like every I am. Client. You can. [TS]
◼ ► You know high profile on insta. Yeah I was the messenger am I think you Google Talk. You know. Custom jabber servers. [TS]
◼ ► I'm not doing Apple for not getting the really hard stuff right I'm doing them for not getting the basics right and. [TS]
◼ ► Some people say oh it works fine for me as I message it all the time works perfectly well that's great [TS]
◼ ► For whom it doesn't work or I click that I gave them a deal on the task of make messages were correctly. [TS]
◼ ► I just don't see any of those issues so if I saw those issues I would rate it the same way. [TS]
◼ ► but I almost never have problems with i Message and I almost never have problems with the messages app. [TS]
◼ ► But I very rarely in fact I can't even remember the last time I've had an issue with either. [TS]
◼ ► but I'm surprised that not only are you saying that you're that you're experiencing all these issues but your. [TS]
◼ ► You've clearly collected a lot of feedback from regular people saying the other people saying that it they're also [TS]
◼ ► I mean that's of I was going to answer but it was one and one person was objecting this has never happened to them [TS]
◼ ► and it's an unfair grade or whatever and then a few other of my random followers saw that one guy said like. [TS]
◼ ► I just took a survey of ten i Phone users in this room and all ten have seen. Problems like these recently and. [TS]
◼ ► You know a month long years long battle with messages and constant post screenshots of the scripts or whatever [TS]
◼ ► It doesn't happen to everybody it's not widespread it's not an epidemic it's not it's not a big deal [TS]
◼ ► but it's a big enough deal like a few says never happened to you say it happened once just once. [TS]
◼ ► Where you click the conversation started typing and didn't realize it was the wrong conversation. [TS]
◼ ► And say it happened maybe maybe maybe not just once maybe like once. Two years ago. And then once. [TS]
◼ ► Eventually you start said look this is this this program. It's not terrible works fine most of the time. [TS]
◼ ► and other programs you don't have to constantly watching how even Skype for crying out loud. [TS]
◼ ► You type a message and it appears a dozen Mr Liver doesn't deliver it twice. It doesn't send it to the wrong person. [TS]
◼ ► Just take for granted I mean for granted a lot of Skype is doing it correctly. And Apple can't you know. [TS]
◼ ► How helped bring it up to the reliability standards that much but i Chat. Even using A.O.L. Servers. [TS]
◼ ► Right and they haven't even they haven't even got up to you know there were fewer problems with i Chat. [TS]
◼ ► So I get that want to be on the most interesting thing to me about this is that the To me these are the kinds of [TS]
◼ ► but they'll care about something that everyone screaming yelling about. But when it's an intermittent. [TS]
◼ ► Or if it does it's just a happy accident riding along with some other bug fix that was unrelated. [TS]
◼ ► Well it's so hard to debug this the biggest people people fall radars on it's like this one time I launch messages [TS]
◼ ► How can they do bug that they have no idea like it's you know it's a client's a server issue this date involved that [TS]
◼ ► You know be difficult for them to do bug it's not like oh there's an obvious fix they're not doing. [TS]
◼ ► But it's their job to just make something that works like many people have made instant message clients that work. [TS]
◼ ► I think you am using that the native clients using Adam for them jabber Google Talk will talk has a web component. [TS]
◼ ► Google Talk is have fewer problems with not just like a thing in the web browser plus amusing outing at the same time. [TS]
◼ ► Like they have to figure out what's going on here and fix it and I didn't give us all an F. [TS]
◼ ► Because I think they did make messages work better. They just didn't make it work better and the flag. [TS]
◼ ► I should no longer be experiencing the type like just someone asked me what does happen to you as a matter of fact. [TS]
◼ ► I want to show how like you when your don't have messages launch you can still get the notifications and stuff [TS]
◼ ► and I was just demonstrating messages from one MAC to another and. I couldn't get a message to go one MAC another. [TS]
◼ ► Both of them using messages both signed in with two different Apple ideas and two different computers. [TS]
◼ ► And I would send a message and they wouldn't hear and I was sent messages that when the pair and I quit [TS]
◼ ► Maybe they'll appear next month out of order them whereas I don't know but that's that's that's an excusable. [TS]
◼ ► You know maybe maybe it's too late for them to do to win back the hearts and minds of people [TS]
◼ ► But in general I don't think i Cloud still has a good reputation mostly because I like what they provide to the kind of [TS]
◼ ► or in know something simple like that and when it doesn't work. You just gonna have to stare at it until it does. [TS]
◼ ► You know just launch I thought oh let's get there may be stuff in photo stream will appear eventual if it doesn't. [TS]
◼ ► I don't know what to do like there's no there's no visibility. So you're not going to provide any visibility. [TS]
◼ ► Ernie you know sort of way to debunk which is fine I'm all for not letting people see all the gears [TS]
◼ ► and touch all that stuff but you just gotta make a work all the time and I call it still doesn't. [TS]
◼ ► I still also disagree that the. I Cloud I mean and you know the word i Cloud. Applies to lots of different things. [TS]
◼ ► Talking specifically about like the files and documents and data storage with an absence inking all that. [TS]
◼ ► It's badly designed conceptually and I still don't see this really taking off or going anywhere in the future. [TS]
◼ ► Yeah they haven't really made another run at that I think they're still in the deep sync stage Well there are two [TS]
◼ ► Which is a tele separation the second is let's think about how we can deal with the whole silo thing [TS]
◼ ► Eventually they'll come back and say we've thought about this and here is our solution to that. [TS]
◼ ► or hack that enhances the silo systems of those Like this little straw being drawn between silos where you can send [TS]
◼ ► So I hope they're considering that but that wasn't what I was getting I would to do it and I was mostly just saying. [TS]
◼ ► Mostly going for reliability and and speed and stuff. Maybe next year's list was like well thing. [TS]
◼ ► I would hold my breath. Yeah. If there is a list. That's almost a resurrect I life and I work. [TS]
◼ ► And they did that but they kind of did a Pet Sematary style. Feel when you read that book or saw the movie but anyway. [TS]
◼ ► I live in our car back. But they're not really the applications we thought they would be like. [TS]
◼ ► Boy I hope I can still get my work done with these new versions because they're moved a lot of features [TS]
◼ ► Although not the not the names but the individual apps. OK they're free. When a. Yeah I don't I. [TS]
◼ ► I actually use the I work out like I don't use Microsoft Office I don't even have it installed I use the I work apps [TS]
◼ ► but I have not found anything in the new versions that I think is better than the old versions. [TS]
◼ ► I like and I I want to light these so much and I just can't. I'm having a really hard time. [TS]
◼ ► Having any faith in Apple to do right by their application software anymore. You know their O.-S. [TS]
◼ ► Is doing great on both O.S.'s are doing great their hardware is doing great as I said in the past their application [TS]
◼ ► At the the apps by Apple page on the mac app store to see all the let me get a list of all their all their major [TS]
◼ ► application software and. It's on a very long list. It's basically I life I work. Final Cut. Logic. [TS]
◼ ► What's going on there like why is it that they don't have enough time to do to do this rally [TS]
◼ ► and they had they want to get this release cycle is that a problem of one of the leaders of one of the groups in the in [TS]
◼ ► I'm actually scared to see what Apple does to it next its reach that point. And that's that's really that. [TS]
◼ ► and different in a way is the not prepared for and. When I hear that is like when a microsoft. [TS]
◼ ► And the Internet age dawned that their reaction was I guess this means we have to add like internet crap to Microsoft [TS]
◼ ► Word or something. I think guys is that what we have to do. And like the next thing is like All right well. [TS]
◼ ► And I think of this I think of Google back there kind of smiling and gloating like we have one version of. [TS]
◼ ► You know Google Docs or a spreadsheet or whatever it is not a fancy version is not amazing the which have one. [TS]
◼ ► And we can put all our resources behind that. But now Apple has to make the I was very soon. [TS]
◼ ► They have to make three versions of their programs and this really seemed to be about synchronizing them. [TS]
◼ ► Feature wise and file format because it was embarrassing when you have like all the web version can use the. [TS]
◼ ► You can just view the files or edit them on the made in your mac when you put them in Iowa some features don't work [TS]
◼ ► And so this really says more about we have to synchronize the look what they're doing they're synchronizing three [TS]
◼ ► what's basically three entirely different applications gunnels at how much code the sheriff anything between. [TS]
◼ ► I was in the MAC maybe some there but like the web version who knows. And that's why they've got and. [TS]
◼ ► But we must be doing something wrong here because I know native software is greater than the Google has to make one [TS]
◼ ► version of these and we have to make three and that feels wrong and were spread too thin and we have trouble hiring [TS]
◼ ► and talk about the yearly deadline like I work the latest version was over nine right and I life it was like eleven. [TS]
◼ ► I looked over the up and I made that post and it's like it's really. It basically the i Pad came out. [TS]
◼ ► And then all development on Maclin cation stopped. Because all the teams. Literally could all the teams were like. [TS]
◼ ► and we know that from talking to people there we know that they use very small teams and stuff like those and. [TS]
◼ ► And now all of a sudden now they're back to their back to the MAC having to make something has been almost four years. [TS]
◼ ► but it's not like they've been working for four years on the mac version straight they've been working on the mag [TS]
◼ ► It's just it's really it's very clear that they're not handling their size well at all it's got to know what I'm [TS]
◼ ► Methodology is right now but to getting back to one thing about software development I've always believed [TS]
◼ ► and find a pressure when it's not the case is that. I'm a big proponent of leaving developers on. A product. [TS]
◼ ► Don't take those people off and assign them to a new product and repeat that process. It doesn't mean you can't. [TS]
◼ ► but in general there must always be a team working on X. Want that's like that's the cost of having a product. [TS]
◼ ► and maybe that probably becomes irrelevant then you got to move them or that process to change in a certain way. [TS]
◼ ► and like wherever the fire is wherever the most important thing is the A players get swept off to there it's exciting [TS]
◼ ► it's fun like Hey now we're doing I was sort of senior project So Paul the best cocoa guys bring or die us right. [TS]
◼ ► And hey now we're doing the amazing holographic watch levitating hoverboard everybody pulled them over like you know [TS]
◼ ► You have to leave a team in place like well that if we do that everything have these teams in place like stuck there [TS]
◼ ► with those developing resources are basically dead to us they're not dead they're they're making a new version a new [TS]
◼ ► version to make them better and better and we all see the point where that kind of stop like. [TS]
◼ ► I thought I got better and better up to about two versions ago. And then it just got worse and worse. [TS]
◼ ► You know the same deal with many other products that we're talking about where we could tell [TS]
◼ ► when there was teams actively working on the nice diversion was a big thing for example I.O.'s has teams actively [TS]
◼ ► working on it and each new version is like wild look at what they've done right. Or the compiler team. [TS]
◼ ► There's no they didn't take those guys off. The compiler team and say we did this we're done now that every year. [TS]
◼ ► But every year there is a compiler team it's probably good like you can't take the compiler guys like make them do the [TS]
◼ ► Because they're just compiler guys and what else are they going to do my work better. But every year. [TS]
◼ ► They make you know the programming language Objective C. Runtime the compilers. They make that better of your and X. [TS]
◼ ► But you're right it seems like the guys who are doing i Life is like a number now we gotta make all these riots [TS]
◼ ► Do you think it's like there's like one guy at Apple somewhere. Whose job it is to just drive you crazy. [TS]
◼ ► Out from underneath autos and find the person who's keeping them away because maybe you Steve Jobs it took them away. [TS]
◼ ► Fine. Now he's gone. Because put them back. I'll give you one word. That will solve your problem. [TS]
◼ ► Lightroom to it for me. It's not it's never too late or late. Look I use i Photo for years. I then used. [TS]
◼ ► Aperture for years. White Room. Trust me. It is night and day. I mean this is ultimately what. [TS]
◼ ► Light Room is probably would say possibly Adobe's best product. It's a really good product. [TS]
◼ ► and now they've been opted in like I said of us like to be careful what I wish or. They didn't resurrect them all. [TS]
◼ ► Like I just said resurrect they did resurrect the right in to resurrect them and make them. [TS]
◼ ► or whatever was just that web thing that no one cares about. Like that would be a lower grade. [TS]
◼ ► The dramatic intro video damn you know do you see a member that thing with all the deep bass in that room in the video [TS]
◼ ► Getting I know I'm totally kidding I'm totally cool. I am I find I don't most do something about T.V.. [TS]
◼ ► Do something something different than what you've been doing instead of just having a little Apple T.V. [TS]
◼ ► Something that we all recognize as a big move in a television world because Apple has been hinting that they want to [TS]
◼ ► they're interested in television I want to do something they have to see lots of potential blah blah blah blah blah [TS]
◼ ► Because they totally didn't do that but that was kind of a stretch anyway I was kind of a. I was. [TS]
◼ ► But overall I think give us a pretty good rating it was a pretty good year for them. They did they did. [TS]
◼ ► but I would give them check marks like yep we did do this to this they did a lot of things they had to do. [TS]
◼ ► No big stumbles just a few minor ones here and there them all feeling or care about so good here for them. [TS]
◼ ► Now do you want to give any any hints on. If you made twenty four team list. What that might include. I think it's. [TS]
◼ ► I think it might be harder for me because last year like I was trying to look for a way in to this. [TS]
◼ ► and to do seem to purport of the time because it seemed like they had a lot of work cut out for them. [TS]
◼ ► Tim Cook's run it's like well what do you got to do what you got to do if you want to rappel you've got a lot of [TS]
◼ ► product lines and you have to sort of hit all of them and you know a couple of them are in various states of crisis. [TS]
◼ ► I don't know if it's a dualist is the right format. Maybe now it's time to start thinking of a different angle on this. [TS]
◼ ► but I want to think about it some more because I was going to make a to do list I think it would be kind of kind of [TS]
◼ ► boring and. I think I would have to start to go into the speculation type stuff of new product categories and T.V. [TS]
◼ ► Mumbo jumbo so I don't know if this is the right format for next year when the funding is you can copy [TS]
◼ ► Ten nineteen march your way up through the single digits there and do ten ten and eighteen months. [TS]
◼ ► The world would not end it gives you enough time to do new file system all for. You know I mean clerks. [TS]
◼ ► You can imagine an i OS eight that is a lot like Iowa seven but with a few new frameworks and features [TS]
◼ ► and like they're going to call that's what I was it is going to be like they're going to call that I always say it [TS]
◼ ► but diversifying the i Phone if they go another year with just two phones I think that's fine you know to do that [TS]
◼ ► but maybe not next year like you're right it's a lot of the same stuff they have certain product lines at the here [TS]
◼ ► And you probably know the Omni groups offer they've been around forever they may really good stuff. [TS]
◼ ► Layout pages for print or create a web site an app mockups. It's for students designers engineers. [TS]
◼ ► I'm to grapple six is the easiest way to get your information and ideas into a beautiful document to share. [TS]
◼ ► Go to Omni group dot com on a graph of six is now available on both the mac ab store and their own store. [TS]
◼ ► You can buy either way it has a bunch of cool features you can mask images right on the canvas. [TS]
◼ ► They have new fill in stroke styles that specifically created for quick and dirty mock ups. [TS]
◼ ► So for instance if you're a designer you want to bring in a quick mockup to a client you want to show it off [TS]
◼ ► but you don't want to you want to look like it's too done yet. Instead expectations accordingly. [TS]
◼ ► Or you want to make it look rough so that you protect your virginal assets that you've made [TS]
◼ ► but the final version in case they don't you know they want to go copy it was somebody cheaper some like that very very [TS]
◼ ► If you go to just go on the group dot com. You gotta check this out. It's what this African do is. [TS]
◼ ► It's hard to explain in like a one minute ad spot all the features of omni gravel. It's just fantastic and. [TS]
◼ ► Do you some idea of how good the Omni group is they charge real prices on i OS and they sell. [TS]
◼ ► They've been around forever they have ridiculous Lee good quality ridiculously good support. [TS]
◼ ► They have a very very long history of this. And it shows their apps are professionally made and. I mean. [TS]
◼ ► Heck I had I'm new graphical on a graphic aim with my first mac like they had some deal with Apple. [TS]
◼ ► Around two thousand and four I guess when I bought the mac where it came with like a basic version of it [TS]
◼ ► Go to Omni group dot com and check out these very professional apps especially the new on the gravel six. [TS]
◼ ► I remember the days when I got to make all my graphics my I was ten or views in on the gravel. [TS]
◼ ► And now they have a sort of a chart formatted ours and I want to do certain use other software for the charting [TS]
◼ ► I use it is a poor man's Adobe Illustrator. Even though it's not really made to be Adobe Illustrator. [TS]
◼ ► They look kind of like a note like where doesn't doesn't seem like a lot of features there. But believe me. [TS]
◼ ► when I used to use I think it was Autocad way back in the day with a command line I don't know if you ever use Autocad [TS]
◼ ► It's not obvious like you look at the tools that were on the screen didn't seem like you could do a lot [TS]
◼ ► If you just look in on the gravel it just looks like a palette of tools and a bunch of stuff whatever [TS]
◼ ► Weird tools where you can copy and paste subsets of styles from one place to another duplicate items aligned [TS]
◼ ► and reconnect things to magnet it is like if you ever seen some of the really good using on the gravel It is amazingly [TS]
◼ ► impressive. And I feel like I'm only barely scratches serviceable this program can do and I keep. [TS]
◼ ► or twice a year I just love the program I just love having it on my computer. Yeah I mean. Their stuff is really there. [TS]
◼ ► These are pro apps. You know everything you describe describes what having like the this like deep. [TS]
◼ ► Attentional for learning new shortcuts learn new features that's what that's how pro apps are [TS]
◼ ► and Dees are really truly pro apps. And they're really great so thanks a lot to The. On the group for sponsoring. [TS]
◼ ► I would like nothing more than to talk about the macro did you did you read it get big. I did was a good. [TS]
◼ ► I know you're saying that have seriously have joking the review was very good in all his reviews are really good you [TS]
◼ ► Apple friendly version of Tom from Toms Hardware do you do you guys read that back in the day. [TS]
◼ ► Well if I remember I remember it's still there isn't yet still there. Yeah. Does anyone ever read it anymore. [TS]
◼ ► It mean it looks radically different now. But yeah I'll occasionally in there from Google searches about processors. [TS]
◼ ► And yet still around. Money right so yeah. An Antec in a proper announcement wrong I'm sorry but an Antec. [TS]
◼ ► and I've come to really enjoy their hardware reviews they're not quite to Syracuse Ian level but. [TS]
◼ ► But they're very very good in the macro view is good it's just about something that I'm not terribly interested in. [TS]
◼ ► But with that said. I know that you guys and many many of the listeners are anxious to talk about this. [TS]
◼ ► What did it make you think about a potential macro purchase for yourself. To probably made me. [TS]
◼ ► Although it puts your workers not getting one for a lot of reasons it at the same time it made me think that. [TS]
◼ ► As that's what it always comes down to because I would love to have a macro who wouldn't want one. Right. [TS]
◼ ► It may be a case really really good so I gave it to you for free or for some really cheap price [TS]
◼ ► or whatever you take it right because it's awesome it's a it's an amazing thing. But since it cost so much. [TS]
◼ ► and learning more about this machine made me. Push me more towards. I got I have to find some alternative.. [TS]
◼ ► And I think it is a compromise machine like the one thing that's really pushing me towards getting is like well you [TS]
◼ ► have the first power Mackie five and like. Don't you want the first one like the. The first cheese grater. [TS]
◼ ► And I get it I'm except these compromises in performance and stuff it doesn't really matter like [TS]
◼ ► But you talk about a bit I think but it's. It's pushing me away. I think. Let's assume that it's a year from now. [TS]
◼ ► A twenty seven inch retina I met with the screen resolution we want or a mac pro with an extra a resolution. [TS]
◼ ► And an external retina monitor with the same resolution. So we can get right now on both. So that's now. [TS]
◼ ► You know on our factor. At that point. I would have a hard time not choosing the IMAX and I think for you. [TS]
◼ ► I think it would be your time two years from now for me to knock at the IMAX because I'm all about. [TS]
◼ ► The only reason I'm looking at the thing is because I need a S.U.V. And in fact I'm saying well this. [TS]
◼ ► So that I might have never going to have the best possible to be the next pros always going to have four G.B. [TS]
◼ ► and E.'s current chips right so even there it's a compromise where they selected them. Before the new revision of the. [TS]
◼ ► You know what he called the G.C. and Corps over there came out so they have an older version there it's it's. [TS]
◼ ► I don't know I mean again it's a bit just because it cost so much money it was too grand to get one in a heartbeat. [TS]
◼ ► Like I wouldn't write and that's the thing I think for your purposes. For your expressed interest in Windows gaming. [TS]
◼ ► I mean first of all you can look doesn't use a oh great a lot has like the dual card whatever it's called for a T.I.. [TS]
◼ ► Ten really doesn't care much about game use. And that's mostly used for games as far as I know. [TS]
◼ ► I don't think pro actually really support that very much so I could be wrong I don't know. But the point is. [TS]
◼ ► I still think that for your purposes. You would be much better served. Buying a new IMAX every two years. [TS]
◼ ► Well I'm still the other thing that I'm still thinking about is enhancing my ancient MacPro [TS]
◼ ► Yeah but I don't know that that kind of feels like putting a brand new transmission into a ten year old car. [TS]
◼ ► It is a bit like that's wait to see or should I get a new car should I continue to sit up this one. [TS]
◼ ► Let's talk about some of the compromise here one of them that I was surprised about that things like I am a surprise [TS]
◼ ► about as well as the RAM on the video cards. But that you see it disabled when you're under oath ten. Yeah. I read. [TS]
◼ ► There were actually some interesting comments on the article. I don't know anything about pro G.P.U. Stuff.. [TS]
◼ ► But the comments basically indicated. One of us you know quite a lot and he was saying how E.C.C. [TS]
◼ ► On on workstation video cards actually is a software implementation of it basically it's not it's not like a hardware [TS]
◼ ► And it basically just uses the ram a little bit like a RAID five array which is like there's like a parity area [TS]
◼ ► and then a regular area so you lose some of the space in the memory and exchange for getting the benefit [TS]
◼ ► It apparently is not universally praised because the last of the RAM is is a factor. I think that would should. [TS]
◼ ► He ran another reason like the mac pros is a comedy he ran it's like well who cares about that well as the amount of [TS]
◼ ► That same percentage of that rot assuming it's at the same and not you know. Worse. It's it's it's an issue. [TS]
◼ ► when you have twelve gigs of beer I mean like well for the same reason I would like to have E.C.C. [TS]
◼ ► RAM but if it's a software only thing and as other compromise I can understand why Apple disabled it. [TS]
◼ ► So that that's low disappointing is I think the most disappointing thing is that the for U.S.B. [TS]
◼ ► So you have five hundred megabytes a second. For all four of those ports combined. Which is not great for the P.C.I. [TS]
◼ ► Express let I thought was one of the most interesting parts about this because I had heard a while ago back [TS]
◼ ► when an ounce of thing somebody told me that they had heard from somebody and somebody and somebody that. [TS]
◼ ► And that's why this homely one as the that they're using all the P.C.I. Express lanes. Possible by that C.P.U. [TS]
◼ ► and Chipset for other purposes. And looking at this diagram of that looks correct there but the who the S.S. [TS]
◼ ► and it seems like the current system is a using are maybe pushing about a gigabyte a second. [TS]
◼ ► Maybe two gigs is gives it headroom for faster flash. Going forward right. But. In reason the US be. [TS]
◼ ► Thing is a problem especially a lot of the notion is before this reviewer like well if you get a macro I know [TS]
◼ ► Thunderball Harbor is very expensive or members got U.S.B. Three and U.S.B. Three is a great way to get cheap storage. [TS]
◼ ► You know I can do that you get one fast as the you've saturated all your entire U.S.B. Three of us. [TS]
◼ ► They're out of lanes where all the going to pull lanes from if they pulled like one lane from the internalizes the [TS]
◼ ► And what's taking up most of the lanes the honkin video cards each have sixteen lanes I think I don't have the diagrams [TS]
◼ ► done in front of me so yeah and. And why you. You know it's interesting also how they're sort of multiplexing the P.C.I. [TS]
◼ ► but It's two point zero zero to the devices and is a multiplexer so that even looks like you don't have enough [TS]
◼ ► and with the support of both the multiplexing down more than one connection into a fewer number. [TS]
◼ ► Thought the word stuff going on inside that box or that's on there. Well and I think the reason why they're the P.C.I.. [TS]
◼ ► Express diagram tells you everything needs no. It tells you that this machine is made for Open C.L. [TS]
◼ ► That's what this is it's made for extremely high bandwidth. Between the C.P.U. and The two G.P. Use. [TS]
◼ ► The They're pretty generous with honorable band with. And everything else is secondary So they're telling us be three. [TS]
◼ ► Yeah that's what I hear about what I mean but the thing is they have to do that for you know if you want to. [TS]
◼ ► One lane each for that because they have dual interfaces that make sense and I have of the Y. [TS]
◼ ► Five his wife I as well as getting up to meet in a standard than ideal conditions these days minds overhead ASBOs. [TS]
◼ ► The assuming like storage is always going to matter and someday maybe we may have an S.S. The they can. [TS]
◼ ► They can saturate to get the second. And then whatever the home have left. Hang for U.S.B. Ports off. That. [TS]
◼ ► Well and I think it's. I think it's a safe assumption that most people's U.S.B. Devices. All taken together. [TS]
◼ ► Don't really push five hundred megabytes a second most time usually are talking about extra no platter hard drive. [TS]
◼ ► And various various others much lower devices things like. You know keyboards mice card reader stuff like that but the. [TS]
◼ ► I would imagine things that it has had to do is be like the quick throw away things a little bus powered S.S.D. [TS]
◼ ► The thing about the thunderbolt market is even in the pro market I guess they have those Pegasus raid things [TS]
◼ ► I don't know where they are people buying thunderbolt storage doesn't seem like at the burgeoning market with honorable [TS]
◼ ► peripherals even in the pro space. Well but until today. The center but was not even available on the macro. [TS]
◼ ► All of thunder bolts best potential customers all these people with high end computing needs that use Macs were all [TS]
◼ ► I don't think we can really judge thunderbolts of thunderbolts. You know maturity or widespread nest yet. [TS]
◼ ► but that's the part is doing the multiplexing where they've got these thunderbolt two things connected to what seems [TS]
◼ ► like an inadequate number of pipes back to the C.P.U. but Actually did that it would because the C.P.U. [TS]
◼ ► and figured that's all the extra crap they had to add in there like it's not just a stock Intel server motherboard [TS]
◼ ► cleverly arrange what they had to add these extra multiplexes for the thunderbolt crap and the U.S.B. [TS]
◼ ► So I could Game Cube of the board everything is so neat and tidy and you've got your you know C.B. Your G.B.U. [TS]
◼ ► Now this stuff all over the place and connected with ribbon cables and circle shaped boards and. [TS]
◼ ► It's it's a very it is very G four cube like people made that comparison before but now having seen the guts [TS]
◼ ► Yeah you know I will say that the thing that fascinated me the most about who the hell are you. I just woke up. [TS]
◼ ► The thing that fascinated me the most of the how the. The an Antec review was the talk about the. [TS]
◼ ► I would encourage you to read at least that part of the review. It is really really really interesting. [TS]
◼ ► and what they're you know you could tell by this by this layout what they are imposing here is high speed.. [TS]
◼ ► Modern and future throughput. You know you have thunderbolt being connected directly to the C.P.U. [TS]
◼ ► Six ports in the back the basically plug directly to the C.P.U. That's pretty awesome. And so you have. [TS]
◼ ► You have that crazy interface. Plus you have these workstation class G.P. Use being able to run Open C.L. Stuff. [TS]
◼ ► Over these incredibly fast buses because one of the one of the big challenges with general purpose computing on G.P. [TS]
◼ ► Use is just getting the data back and forth in a way that doesn't make the whole thing. Take less. Take more time.. [TS]
◼ ► That's going to be faster than shifting over the graphics card doing something they are shifting it back. [TS]
◼ ► and primarily for that which is something none of us are going to use for what he thought the three of us none of us [TS]
◼ ► are really going to use that makes perfect sense in light of the demo they gave me a receipt for the macro with a [TS]
◼ ► but I was what I believe we sat with you know a lot of not on Earth there are a lot of maintenance meaning there's a [TS]
◼ ► look and I like so I check your nerves to make sure they're yours. But yes I was there was someone demonstrating. [TS]
◼ ► and they had to take pains to point out it was all it just looks like you're drawing on a three D. Model. Big deal. [TS]
◼ ► But they're drawing with like humongous textures using all twelve gigs of Ihram things that are just you know not [TS]
◼ ► You know we were not just doing like oh this just needs to be good enough quality to display. [TS]
◼ ► You know and a video game or something this is art work that's going to be rendered and hire as you know. Four K. [TS]
◼ ► And the assets the GO INTO IT ALONE are just gigantic And so it's amazing that he can do it all right. [TS]
◼ ► But that's not what most people are doing with evil and I'm dealing with a huge volume of data. [TS]
◼ ► But that's what the machine is designed to be a small little cylinder thing that amazing kind of like the old S.G.I. [TS]
◼ ► Like the octane machines of ever read this little tiny thing that can do these amazing things with a huge volume of [TS]
◼ ► and for you know if you work at Pixar seems like this is a great machine for that purpose compared to what you would [TS]
◼ ► I was a little little sour on the idea of keeping my order and not canceling it. I thought about canceling my order. [TS]
◼ ► Because it just it looks from from all accounts it looks like this is a machine with power. That I'm paying for that. [TS]
◼ ► I'm probably not going to use and. I keep thinking. You know what if one of the things I frequently do is convert. [TS]
◼ ► Videos that were Go. To watch somewhere or. RIP Louris we can watch it on the empathy with other stupid menus and all. [TS]
◼ ► You know stuff like that and or like I'll have like a giant folder of images that we shot that I want to convert [TS]
◼ ► You know mashing out of the Course to do that and I think what you what if image magic. What if their Open C.L. [TS]
◼ ► Support improves and it starts becoming like five or ten times faster on this computer. I would love that. [TS]
◼ ► What if logic. Starts using Open C.L. For something that would save me tons of time and editing the show. [TS]
◼ ► What if Lightroom you know improves. It's Open C.L. Support and imports don't take us long Convergence a D.M.D. [TS]
◼ ► Don't take as long or this stuff that I do fairly frequently. That is highly paralyzed. You know I'm not going to see. [TS]
◼ ► Savings every day that are going to be noticeable. But I'm going to see you know. Maybe once or twice a week. [TS]
◼ ► Is still a big question mark and I think mostly still like half done or not done by most big software packages [TS]
◼ ► You know maybe maybe we'll be looking at buying a macro it's on the G.P.U. Power. In three to five years. [TS]
◼ ► When tons of stuff takes advantage of that maybe that would be a better idea than buying one now. [TS]
◼ ► Well you need to buy a one now just replace your current MacPro. Because what you're thinking of this way. [TS]
◼ ► Like you should think of it is what you're doing is you're getting a smaller quieter version of what you already have [TS]
◼ ► Like that is another thing that pushing me towards finding a way to buy this thing is it will be better than my current [TS]
◼ ► and spec was a number was a little bit better in you know the touchy feely ways of being nicer to look at taking up [TS]
◼ ► less room making less noise using less power producing less heat. Maybe. Yes company producing less heat. [TS]
◼ ► Plus you have to buy the expensive things that we can afford it's your job. You should not cancel your order. [TS]
◼ ► I guess somebody has to say I mean one thing I thought about is like is because I ordered the eight core. [TS]
◼ ► One thing I thought about was what if I just downgrade to the stock. Six core config. Plus the big. [TS]
◼ ► Plus a terabyte basically. But once you. Once you add the terabyte. And the RAM that I want thirty two kids are ram. [TS]
◼ ► but it's like well if I'm going to spend forty five hundred mobile spend six you know like I want this computer to last [TS]
◼ ► Tech article is that it shows you how much value macros hold over time. Because the ceiling of performance. [TS]
◼ ► And the rest of the mac lineup is actually hitting a similar wall she talks about which is the thing about how single [TS]
◼ ► Gains have really hit a wall and are really slowing down dramatically across the industry in desktop [TS]
◼ ► and mobile they still have a while to go. But in the desktop. We have like maxed out. Single threaded potential. [TS]
◼ ► Let's just throw more course in the die we can make the process small enough that we can make that work. [TS]
◼ ► So if you're a whole bunch more course in the die. So now we have these. Now we now you can get a quad core laptop. [TS]
◼ ► That's crazy like. Imagine that imagine telling somebody that ten years ago. That would have sounded nuts. [TS]
◼ ► But that's normal Now if you can get a four core. Laptop that's that's crazy. And. So on the desktop. [TS]
◼ ► You've put as many cores on there as you can. While still staying on the power and follow up. [TS]
◼ ► So now you're going to basically wait for minor improvements to efficiency and instruction. Level stuff. [TS]
◼ ► So the error of having these giant jumps is gone so the C.P.U. I haven't mine was released in twenty ten. [TS]
◼ ► And the new one I get for nearly seven thousand dollars. C.P.U. I was only going to be about fifty percent faster. [TS]
◼ ► and that's like I kind of expected more for a twenty ten C.P.U. Go into a twenty thirteen C.P.U. [TS]
◼ ► Well I think that what you would feel more as the storage speed I don't know it's be addressing the as whatever that [TS]
◼ ► and that would probably get you more a day to day experience Apple to its credit as that point that it is trying to [TS]
◼ ► Heavily optimizing final coverage of the application to keep showing in their own advertising for like a bio macro [TS]
◼ ► guess I'll cut you know what the four K. Video support. They're trying to use all the G.P.U. [TS]
◼ ► If you're not talk about my are some places a piece of software that Apple makes this trying to to be tailored for the [TS]
◼ ► but if in the case of other software it's like well. At least you won't have any you know it's got fast memory. [TS]
◼ ► Processes will be waiting on a core of your by one of the miles with the boss of course in hybrid writing [TS]
◼ ► and everything it's still it was still feel to difficulties now here and in a smaller package like make less noise [TS]
◼ ► It does pretty well like it's up there with the big boys G.P. Use is how the top of the stack of the big boys G.P. Use. [TS]
◼ ► But it's OK. But for the price of a macro you could buy a like. Seven high end P.C.'s but the same video card and them. [TS]
◼ ► Performance or gaming it's great that it has a crossfire and windows and stuff like that but it. [TS]
◼ ► What I'm comparing it to upgrading my thing or not the parents and I think it's like this the still. [TS]
◼ ► I keep looking and I'm at pricing it out it ends up being like we did it before like three grand [TS]
◼ ► and not really great for my purposes. So I keep just looking it. Can I hold out another year. [TS]
◼ ► and I want to expect another year the new C.P.U.'s might not even be able to maybe they'll be able to read the G.P. [TS]
◼ ► Use because then they'll have you know it's like the G.P.U. Rev fine just swapping the new G.P.S. [TS]
◼ ► Should be that big a deal maybe lower the price a little bit because he'd do use aren't updated [TS]
◼ ► and you kind of offering the same machines or maybe you can bring the price down. I don't know. [TS]
◼ ► I don't know what I'm going for I haven't I haven't decided yet but that like half of me look the G.P.U. [TS]
◼ ► Benchmarks and goes like if your current mac with on there wouldn't show up in the diagram. [TS]
◼ ► Would be like one pixel where the one pixel wide line. Or did not finish like isn't that why do I care that. [TS]
◼ ► OK so it's not as fast as the very fast is G.P.U. Combine any computer ever. Right now. But it's in the ballpark right. [TS]
◼ ► and Jam it into my current MacPro civets of what you should care about it we should all care about ignoring the gaming [TS]
◼ ► Problem we already discussed how it can drive the big quad twenty seven inch display as it doesn't exist. Because of. [TS]
◼ ► What he called the sport limitations and stuff. And we don't even know that it can't do that with the. [TS]
◼ ► There isn't a display out there of that resolution to test with right and maybe you could do a link or whatever. [TS]
◼ ► Displays that Apple offers you from Sharper whatever. Can you run it in retina mode. And the answer seems to be. [TS]
◼ ► No Hassle domain name registration. We've got a new promo code this week for them too because they are also cool. [TS]
◼ ► It is promo code. Tech by chance. All one word. Tech by chance. You know accidental. You get it for ten percent off. [TS]
◼ ► and powerful to Main a management tools hover believes that everyone should be able to take control of their online [TS]
◼ ► and they will make it easy for you to do so they are part of two cows a company that's been around since one thousand [TS]
◼ ► nine hundred four. I bet some of you weren't even born ninety four which is scary because I was in sixth grade. [TS]
◼ ► And many more domain names they've also added a buncha new ones recently including dot IO and tons more countries. [TS]
◼ ► They're always adding more such Econet you can get pretty much any P.L.D. That you're looking for a hover. [TS]

◼ ► That's pretty amazing this day and age. So go to hover dot com slash A.T.P. For high quality. [TS]
◼ ► No Hassle domain name registration and use a new promo code. Tech by chance for ten percent off. Thanks a lot to her. [TS]
◼ ► So retina. Yeah not so much. Moving on. This is a part of has me a little bit worried. So. So what and found was. [TS]
◼ ► Yet works fine but it's for the same reason that I didn't order one and I think you probably wouldn't either. [TS]
◼ ► but the most popular ones for a while are going to be these ones from Dell that it's like the you P. [TS]
◼ ► Twenty four Q something. They have the worst product names. It's Dell's twenty four inch. Four K. [TS]
◼ ► Display and it's only twelve hundred bucks. So it's. We talked about it before my going to into it. [TS]
◼ ► But that apparently he got one of those from Dell for the review and he plugged it into the mac pro [TS]
◼ ► You know this all the standard that we talked about two to like multiplex two signals into either one cable [TS]
◼ ► Industry different monitors and then merge it in software so it behaves properly to overcome various limitations [TS]
◼ ► and stuff like that to be able to get these super higher resolutions on one monitor and. It sounds like Apple. [TS]
◼ ► Kind of made special support for the sharp one to work they're selling and didn't make any support for this Dell one. [TS]
◼ ► It's worrying in that this is not going to be a question you can't just buy any for him monitor [TS]
◼ ► and plug it in expected to work right. So that's a problem right there that all service also rules out. [TS]
◼ ► So you say that even on the sharp one you couldn't put it in the high D.P. IMO Though it. Two X. [TS]
◼ ► Like one to one Heidi P.-I node so it was like like exact So it was one hundred twenty by by ten eighty. [TS]
◼ ► So they wouldn't. Or whatever it is so it wouldn't. I thought what he said that it wouldn't even do that one. [TS]
◼ ► He couldn't get any of those working. So yes so basically for Britain to use the current sharp There are two inches. [TS]
◼ ► Is not what really anybody's looking for. And the Dell which is what a lot of people are looking for doesn't work. [TS]
◼ ► And it might never work it might work next week who knows we don't know the other could be driver issues to sort that. [TS]
◼ ► out so I don't think it's hopeless on this front but like what do you think the support these four K. [TS]
◼ ► Displays through a single cable is a multi stream supported which was it seems like it was originally designed so you [TS]
◼ ► So you have to send two monitors for the signal down this one thunderbolt despite how it's doing just multi stream [TS]
◼ ► things they make single Monder that consumes two streams and displays them in the right place [TS]
◼ ► and that's why you might need some kind of driver support to correctly talk to the monitor using multiple streams I [TS]
◼ ► Displays let alone a quad twenty seven size thing the answer is No they're not like display part one point two can. [TS]
◼ ► It's kind of a hack on top of the multi stream support to get this resolution to a modern monitor dependent so again [TS]
◼ ► that looks like a compromise machine not sort of. We wait until we can do it all cleanly and elegantly and here it is. [TS]
◼ ► but all these areas we were just that close just so close to getting everything the way it's supposed to be more not [TS]
◼ ► The display we want anytime soon. First of all and what they do will even be compatible with this macro and. [TS]
◼ ► We don't really know that yet still think her bio on the. Maybe to some you know. I mean and I did. [TS]
◼ ► You know you can look at his and his C.P.U. Charts to see the progress of macros over the years. [TS]
◼ ► How how slow it really is the side effect of that you know one thing is you should almost never buy two macros in a row. [TS]
◼ ► but I'm in particular the macros really hold their value very well and. So I want to buy this computer. [TS]
◼ ► And probably four or five years of usability of of still being a high performance computer. [TS]
◼ ► And if I choose to use it for a long time I can you know you like John you're using your two thousand and eight macro. [TS]
◼ ► but I would say if you're buying if you're buying the machine. Buy it for what it can do for you today. [TS]
◼ ► Like don't buy it with the expectation that you're going to be doing a five thousand buy something screen is maybe you [TS]
◼ ► but if you want a small quiet powerful computer that's faster than any existing macro that drives your existing [TS]
◼ ► monitors a non-reading resolution. And that you can use for years and years and not feel like you have slow machine. [TS]
◼ ► But if you're buying it with the expectation then in a short time I'll be able to connect up this amazing new display [TS]
◼ ► and all these maybe you won't maybe you will be like Don't know but for that purpose like the two thousand [TS]
◼ ► It doesn't do anything amazing you're just keep doing what it always did very well and is amazing. [TS]
◼ ► and all those good things going for it still may be able to be under my desk here for another year. On this topic. [TS]
◼ ► We got a good question from a person who gave their name as a gains. And he's here she said. [TS]
◼ ► Can you talk about why you guys would never use an Imax for work development etc I think it has many advantages to the [TS]
◼ ► and why John refused to buy an IMAX even though it actually surface needs way better and be way shape or time. [TS]
◼ ► And you will keep wanting to buy those big expensive things but you know and IMAX or a laptop. They're fine. [TS]
◼ ► And you know people always say Oh do do I need X. or Y. For development. Most developed meant. [TS]
◼ ► You're just typing into a text editor yet there's very few like I.D.E.'s that are really going to stress the computer [TS]
◼ ► If you're doing web development you can do it on pretty much anything you can do it on eleven inch MacBook Air if you [TS]
◼ ► want to it you can do it on anything it doesn't matter. Screen space is always nice to have. But performance wise. [TS]
◼ ► It doesn't matter we're using for weapon violent for i OS development. You can. You can do it and everything else. You. [TS]
◼ ► Again you need a lot of screen space. Especially for i Pad development and. And for Iowa stuff. [TS]
◼ ► Xcode is a bit of a hog so if there's a lot of smart things that it will do I don't know if this applies to the other [TS]
◼ ► big I do use the market like Eclipse or all the windows crap I don't know. I don't know that applies to that stuff but. [TS]
◼ ► Quick if you have a major project reviews and big libraries in and so you can start doing performance bottlenecks. [TS]
◼ ► When doing I.I.S. Development but even then if you do with an eye on a modern math book pro or a mac you're fine. [TS]
◼ ► or MAC development very easily if you if you get a mac mini with an S.S.D. and Stuff it full ram. [TS]
◼ ► I guess it's going to be the fastest now it's not going to the fastest you're going to wait a little longer [TS]
◼ ► but if you don't have another mac to compare it to you don't know how long a compile would take on a macro you just. [TS]
◼ ► Amazing great apps in the first mac was that many and that's why they did all the development on. [TS]
◼ ► Once you get a faster mac then you realize OK I can go back to I can go back to developing on that mag many. [TS]
◼ ► But you can get it done that's that's the amazing thing about development is the bottom of the bottom of the line Mac.. [TS]
◼ ► Can physically speaking do development where they used to be like you needed to have the super high. [TS]
◼ ► when I say can you do development in IMAX Of course you can of course you can do development back in fact most people [TS]
◼ ► probably should do development on that because you don't need a macro for that you definitely on the macro to compile. [TS]
◼ ► stuff can the compiler is not using your G.P.U. Yet not yet anyway. Also consider that in the new versions of X. [TS]
◼ ► but they basically have this system by which you can compile regularly on a completely different computer which I [TS]
◼ ► It was basically that they never came out said it was basically designed for Mack many do you know you guys know what [TS]
◼ ► I'm thinking of you know they get continuous integration thing it's the Jenkins report on Jenkins Yeah you know yeah [TS]
◼ ► yeah that's not just you're talking about distributed builds which they used to have yes distributed builds I'm sorry I [TS]
◼ ► and then there's ways to farm out if you're you know that's one of the reasons why a lot of the mac development shops [TS]
◼ ► can get away with giving the developers less powerful comparison you have a bunch of spare hardware [TS]
◼ ► and you can set it up as a continuous continuous integration farm and have a doing your bills [TS]
◼ ► The only few things that you would suffer for having an Aquarius. If you're game or you will suffer because the G.P.U. [TS]
◼ ► Is not. If you care about super duper fast. That's three D. Games and full resin blah blah. [TS]
◼ ► You're not going to get that of an IMAX P.C. At that point. Yeah. Well or a game console or whatever. [TS]
◼ ► That's when you need a MacPro but I'm actually pews are faster and single threaded and that pros for the most part. [TS]
◼ ► That's like the edgiest of edge cases like the I'm like is a great desktop machine for anybody. [TS]
◼ ► And it's getting better all the time now the you know one thing goes completely as they like the fusion drive seems to [TS]
◼ ► be great but I did see some reports in the web about it having trouble with audio recording which gave me some pause [TS]
◼ ► The spinning this will be gone from the i Macin to probably be even thinner just be amazing fantasy. [TS]
◼ ► That's the machine that everyone should look at when you go into the Apple Store don't look at the macros. [TS]
◼ ► That said there's a few so I want to I wrote in some post this week couple days ago I forget which one that. [TS]
◼ ► And I've regretted buying almost all of them except the macro. The my private have are granted a macro purchase and. [TS]
◼ ► Because I tried to have like this cause a computer to do accessories tasks and turns out that sucks. [TS]
◼ ► And it's really a pan pin the but so I didn't do it anymore but when it's very clear when using these computers. [TS]
◼ ► That these are consumer grade parts. And that they're you know if they're made to be used by one household. [TS]
◼ ► For a few years. And then they're basically worthless and they're made to be discarded donated a recycled. And so it. [TS]
◼ ► I've had with I'm actually are I might have a couple of screen issues especially about the time it was like three years [TS]
◼ ► It was out of warranty a rational one out of warranty like part of the screen had like a deadline [TS]
◼ ► And there was like this big giant pile of hard drives hanging out the back of it because we couldn't get to the [TS]
◼ ► And most that applies to laptops as well. And so some of those needs are removed or minimize now. Disk I O. [TS]
◼ ► Is a great example. Disguise or used to suck. Now it's great because the cities are everywhere. And so you know. [TS]
◼ ► So that's great but all those limitations are still there. If a screen goes bad in an IMAX or macro. [TS]
◼ ► If you want to change the screen size or upgrade it two years in. You're screwed you can't do it. If you will. [TS]
◼ ► Well tough luck you know you better buy a read a map a pro but even then like the current Retina MacBook Pro. [TS]
◼ ► The panel that we're talking about over thunderbolt two unless it was made for and they didn't never mention it [TS]
◼ ► but there's a special stuff on the macro navel as I don't think the retina MacPro has that. At least not sixty hertz. [TS]
◼ ► So if you want to buy a computer today. That will last you. Very happily for the next two to four years. [TS]
◼ ► The three year old I get maybe you know maybe a few hundred. You know you're not talking a whole lot there. [TS]
◼ ► but there's still a lot of those cases where over time. You might come to regret having chosen the i Mac. If you. [TS]
◼ ► and i Macs are kind of a sucker's bet because they cost the cost so much money like you can. [TS]
◼ ► You can push an IMAX up towards four grand. Well you can go right past four grand you can.. [TS]
◼ ► Like or as close as you can get to the same hardware. It's not that different in price it's. [TS]
◼ ► It's like I think I said on my site somewhere think it's like five hundred bucks difference at that point. [TS]
◼ ► Now of course you get the free monitor mix in but plan for the my program to do G.P. Use and feel like there's. [TS]
◼ ► It's end of the higher and Thunderbolt more thunderbolt ports. The dual net reports if you'll ever use that. [TS]
◼ ► and if you find yourself like I was you find yourself in the I'm at configurator cranking everything up. [TS]
◼ ► Then it's probably time to look another scene I think the sweet spot of the I AM act is kind of in the middle range [TS]
◼ ► where what you're getting is you're getting a computer that you're going to run I life apps on [TS]
◼ ► and you getting like a sealed little thing that just looks like a monitor with like a wireless keyboard [TS]
◼ ► and mouse attached. And that's all to ever going to being you're going to use it like that to the day it dies.. [TS]
◼ ► Maybe they'll never going to have a need to create any of the ports except maybe some U.S.B. [TS]
◼ ► and it's got more than enough storage to in there to last them forever you get a fusion drive. [TS]
◼ ► and snappy for the three apps they use all the time they're never going to upgrade the never going to care about the [TS]
◼ ► Once you start cranking that stuff up and you've got a for ray machine do like to argue that you are more like oh [TS]
◼ ► but i gotta have more better and. It's not that's not a more better machine because you will go start to get the itch. [TS]
◼ ► and the people who just have their IMAX sitting on their desk as their little home computer. [TS]
◼ ► and I think you can get five years out of an American middle range where he'd be perfectly happy with it. [TS]
◼ ► First of all as soon as there's a retina monitor I would. I would feel like an idiot. So if you know. [TS]
◼ ► For For me the the the value option would be to just wait until it's a retina IMAX and buy that [TS]
◼ ► but I'm not sure we're getting that this year I don't know I mean if you look at where the technology is where the [TS]
◼ ► Driving them and stuff like that I would necessarily say right now i Macin twenty fourteen is a sure thing. [TS]
◼ ► I don't think so either. I mean probably twenty fifteen by MAC I bet a lot but we'll have it then. But twenty fourteen. [TS]
◼ ► And before you answer what I mean by that is what. Now they took me six. You're doing anyway sorry. Moving on. [TS]
◼ ► So the reason I ask is because the obvious trump card answer is you just want more real estate for developing right now [TS]
◼ ► but at a distance in which I sit from say take my high rez anti-glare pre Retina MacBook Pro. [TS]
◼ ► I can tell the difference between a retina macro pro-ana not written a macro pro but it is not night [TS]
◼ ► I don't find it to be as agree Jason as frustrating as you do and it doesn't make you wrong [TS]
◼ ► and it doesn't make me right it's just to me it seems like an odd thing that you're so obsessed over. [TS]
◼ ► And I don't know if maybe that's a statement rather than a question. It's. It's that good. I mean it's. [TS]
◼ ► So I work a lot with text which looks awesome on retina. And I work a lot with images. When you see a photo like. [TS]
◼ ► It's so funny I so I take my laptop and we go on trips of course and. I'll take up take a little camera and up. [TS]
◼ ► All import the photos all I'm still on the trip to look into light were Missi have to turn out [TS]
◼ ► On the laptop and like wow these photos are amazing. I can't believe how good this is look at how great this looks. [TS]
◼ ► But part of it's also that massive resolution difference and men make such a difference. Present the web like I'm. [TS]
◼ ► I was resigning my site this week and just giving it like a new fun a few minor updates and. [TS]
◼ ► When you're when you're doing certain things and a lot you know just like. If you look at the i Pads. [TS]
◼ ► You know we talked before about how a lot of people don't see the difference with the retina. [TS]
◼ ► They don't care or they can like they can vaguely Well I guess to text a sharper or something [TS]
◼ ► but they don't really care for a lot of people it's going to be true. Forever and they won't care. [TS]
◼ ► I'm one of the people who cares shockingly. And you know I'm sure. I'm sure John is. Similarly observant and picky. [TS]
◼ ► That's great you're going to save a bunch of money of the next few years by not care. Or by selecting to go. [TS]
◼ ► I think maybe it's just that because I've never used a retina computer for any duration of time more than like ten [TS]
◼ ► and again I can absolutely recognize that that it is better it's not that I don't recognize that it's just I don't know [TS]
◼ ► it to me it didn't make a big difference. And I think that's because I'm not sitting with this display. [TS]
◼ ► and ask me again after a month what's that maybe I'll tell you the me asking that question was the dumbest thing I've [TS]
◼ ► ever done but sitting here now not knowing any better. I just don't see why it's that big a deal. [TS]
◼ ► Here's how I think about it if. If you're into technology. Like I am and I think I we all are high technology. [TS]
◼ ► Kind of advances in fits and starts and there is little discontinuity isn't if your technology nerd you never run. [TS]
◼ ► Whatever the new thing is on the other side of that the next little leap. You want to be there living in the future. [TS]
◼ ► Right so. Monitor. Resolution size is a. One example where monitors. Were you know. Got color. [TS]
◼ ► And that was a big discount you know you like oh you have a monochrome display you want to call if you knew color [TS]
◼ ► displays existed. You clearly knew that a every display was going to be colored pretty soon. Right. [TS]
◼ ► It's not like this forever there will be black you know and be that you want to have one of those [TS]
◼ ► and you want you want to be living in the future now if someone's out there has got a color monitor for your enjoying [TS]
◼ ► color monitor type games and you're still in black and white you feel bad you want to you want to see the new thing. [TS]
◼ ► And then the miners got bigger and the pixels got smaller and they had this kind of incrementally getting bigger [TS]
◼ ► Flat panels are out if you want to have that gigantic twenty one inch C.R.T. On your desk taking up all that room. [TS]
◼ ► when can I change my life from a person who has gigantic C.R.T.'s to person who has no gigantic C.R.T. [TS]
◼ ► You know that everyone's going to be like that you know C.R.T.'s are going away you want to be in the other side of [TS]
◼ ► Retinas the next one of those things of the monitor the flat panel monitors get bigger and better and bigger [TS]
◼ ► The number of pixels this not just like a little bit bigger that's just a total change like a qualitative change in you [TS]
◼ ► know there are everything's going to be right and I just know it like it's going to happen. Right. [TS]
◼ ► I want to be living in the future there will be else I don't want to wait only the last person to get it to get a color. [TS]
◼ ► and with this amazing new thing you have to balance that with Layo maybe the first flat panel T.V.'s are bad [TS]
◼ ► or the first high definition television is still see Artie's or whatever your problem is there. [TS]
◼ ► and I you know I want to that's another reason I get a MacPro I want to see what is it like to be on the cutting edge [TS]
◼ ► You know that's that's a balance I'm going for and like my eyesight is good enough to see the difference in retina. [TS]
◼ ► and I think a he would agree with that now you can't hold a nun retina phone up to your face in your me like good now [TS]
◼ ► you can forget it and even i Pad. I would not use a mini when I was in red and I don't like them in any way but yeah. [TS]
◼ ► But the monitors it's in my suffering. But I now have a run on one. No but if I know that other people are out there. [TS]
◼ ► And so that's I think that's the big driving factor it has to do with not whether you can tell the difference in retina. [TS]
◼ ► and exciting is it for two people who like technology. Right and not that genuinely does make sense. I guess. [TS]
◼ ► I'm trying I'm struggling to find a way to properly explain but to me. It makes sense to want retina. Marco's dying. [TS]
◼ ► I don't share that with the them thing and it doesn't mean I'm right doesn't mean he's wrong. [TS]
◼ ► I just don't see what did originally need is to have it yesterday. Other than that it's new and shiny. [TS]
◼ ► and Marcus at the point in the hierarchy where Breton as actually really near the top of the stuff. Well I also. [TS]
◼ ► You're lowering it halfway it's like if you know. If you had a bunch of flat panel displays but also one giant C.R.T. [TS]
◼ ► Monitor and every time you come back to you just want to be like oh oh this thing again. I mean. [TS]
◼ ► Granted this is not like you know this is not a severe problem and in life world simply speaking but. [TS]
◼ ► But you know John's right like. You know we. We've come of course we've come past all these like major changes.. [TS]
◼ ► Kind of happening at the same time it has to be as easy a couple years ahead and. And I've crossed the S.S.T. [TS]
◼ ► Storage I don't need to use fusion drive. Which is good because I try to use drive and it was. It was inconsistent. [TS]
◼ ► And which is a problem. That's probably why it's a problem for audio recording is that. It's insane consistent. [TS]
◼ ► And so you know Heidi P.R. Is use You're right it's the next big thing and after that like. I'd not seeing any obvious. [TS]
◼ ► Computer hardware for a while and then I'm not saying there's never going to be one that would be short sighted but [TS]
◼ ► but there is an obvious one. Coming up shortly. Memory unification. You think. Well. Yeah sure. [TS]
◼ ► I mean it's not going to be anytime soon but like if you look at the way a modern computer is made [TS]
◼ ► Let's course those diagrams together and they go in that everything's better. I mean the way. [TS]
◼ ► The way we're doing it now so to be clear you're talking about similar to how the X. Box One was designed the first X. [TS]
◼ ► Box one. Know nothing nothing about it will be so much of the first acts of the C.P.U. and G.P.U. [TS]
◼ ► and main RAM It was just one big bank a fast ram that everything has good access to is that we're talking about game [TS]
◼ ► but I'm talking more about like memory unification across. You know disk. Going to go disk and and RAM storage. [TS]
◼ ► You know some maybe you're right maybe it'll come first as like the stuff of the Playstation [TS]
◼ ► and all the other game consuls it was like having a single pull of memory. Between the C.P.U. and G.P.U. [TS]
◼ ► when There are important technical reasons for it now but it would be nice if you had virtualize. [TS]
◼ ► Video memories virtualize of them why do you have to separate pools of virtualize memory want to be nice if you could [TS]
◼ ► combine them and then. God knows what the processes will be and we could have you know we already have integrated G.B. [TS]
◼ ► Use they keep getting bigger so eventually end up with a situation where you have your computer [TS]
◼ ► You can make some very interesting computing devices where everything is addressable as a sixty four bit. [TS]
◼ ► Address somewhere and some big virtualize pool of RAM and. That's your disk and that's your V. [TS]
◼ ► I would never have assumed that would be a thing that would happen. Just because of the economies it's like. [TS]
◼ ► or everything's going to be a register taken to the extreme it's like you know it's never really going to happen to get [TS]
◼ ► the various economies. Not that will happen. We will we will live to see what I just described. [TS]
◼ ► I think of it I mean like the past that we've already seen video game consuls that's not fantasy like APCO by [TS]
◼ ► Playstation four. You have to keep and D.V.R. Five. Quote unquote of Ihram is the entire RAM for the system. [TS]
◼ ► but if we all live long enough that will inevitably happen to because certainly we all agree that spinning disk. [TS]
◼ ► Are gone goodbye. Right. And so now we have a series of chips with addressable memory using different technologies. [TS]
◼ ► That's fine you're going to have a higher. Is only going to register as L one L to L three. Flash. You know. DRAM like. [TS]
◼ ► Whatever the technologies are in the hierarchy. That will be there but like that's I'm talking. [TS]
◼ ► You know distant future stuff like as well as we're on our deathbeds the unified single chip everything. [TS]
◼ ► and planning if you can get Texas big enough for us to say. And with that thanks a lot to our sponsors this week. [TS]
◼ ► Let's say they really key is why that the mayor eating so small can't get thing on these things.. [TS]
◼ ► when I don't have my contact lenses in that's the only way I can see a computer from any reasonable distance [TS]
◼ ► and I'm not trying to be funny at all it's going to wait until you get a little bit older because as you get older you [TS]
◼ ► hear fish starts to get worse in the other direction and suddenly you can start to see close up a little bit better. [TS]
◼ ► Well the well the way I'm headed Naam looking at corneal transplant for my future so anything any any time I can buy [TS]
◼ ► and so like you just get some dead guy's eyeballs was is a is a positive improvement that the ones with lasers. [TS]
◼ ► I'll get right on I think. But the thing about the options that the person selected it's going to the B.M.W. [TS]
◼ ► I'm getting that definitely part of the premium package for those you got to get a spoiler in your butt in this. [TS]
◼ ► You guys are going to make great Old Men I really hope I still know you and talk to you regularly [TS]
◼ ► when we're all like ancient. Because it's going to be hilarious and by that time. Nobody else will care to listen. [TS]
◼ ► But it'll be funny. Oh I genuine and I'm not trying to be funny not trying to be snarky I genuinely. [TS]
◼ ► and that's what I have all I can have an excuse for going to bed early. I think I have an excuse for eating early. [TS]
◼ ► and get away with it instead of just getting yelled at for ruining the fun about the mac pro. [TS]
◼ ► Oh it's going to be fantastic I can't wait. So what you're saying is you. You look forward to getting old. [TS]
◼ ► So it justifies all of your existing behavior. Basically yes. Also I plan on buying a nine hundred sixty S. Era Buick. [TS]
◼ ► And just driving into people that don't use their signals. Because one hundred sixty S. Are you excited. Invincible. [TS]
◼ ► Buick they weigh eighty five tons of a crumpled up like a house of cards the death traps are going to be some like one [TS]
◼ ► You know what actual car crash tests are like there now I know we want to do titles. Oh Wayne Dixon pet cemetery style. [TS]
◼ ► What did when Dixon do wrong. When Dixon like your chat. Your titles and Justin. Cemetery. Yeah. [TS]
◼ ► That clearly don't know what you're talking about the steering can just because it was the movie title itself. [TS]
◼ ► That custom spelling. Yeah. You've I guess neither one of you has read that book or seen that movie. [TS]
◼ ► No here's here's a quick quick primer. If Lex Friedman hasn't seen the movie I probably haven't either. [TS]
◼ ► But this is also a book about maybe better read Stephen King is a well known author you may have heard of. [TS]
◼ ► He's written some books. People might have read. I have heard of him. OK. I can tell you that that is Mark. You don't. [TS]
◼ ► But you know read novels do you know I think I don't mean anything anymore I barely have time to read the paper. [TS]
◼ ► but I feel like there's probably a big gaps in Casey's life of all there are there absolutely are. [TS]
◼ ► Well look I spent my entire use digging around with computers so like I didn't you know that's clearly you took some [TS]
◼ ► breaks. I took fewer breaks I think is what it comes down to. I don't like any of these titles. [TS]
◼ ► That's pretty good we could do that you know I can do it a comp. Compromised or compromise. I think. Compromised. [TS]
◼ ► Oh I was going I would say with the D. I would say without but I've just been overruled. That's fine. [TS]
◼ ► It's a machine that produces compromises a compromise machine you turn on it or compromises [TS]
◼ ► Yeah it is if itself is compromised in some way to us I but that's neither one that covers the MacPro Enos of the. [TS]
◼ ► I'm kind of surprised that that you that you picked the compromises that you did to complain about like the U.S.B. [TS]
◼ ► Three even though I'm probably using the far right hundred phase of this point on a line that U.S.B. [TS]
◼ ► So one way to save money is how you can reuse all that storage you don't have to buy a three hundred dollars [TS]
◼ ► thunderbolt box you know hundred bodies fifty dollars Butterball cable just put your stuff. OK it up to U.S.B. [TS]
◼ ► and It's like kind of screwed up art up. Yeah but you're not really going to be hitting those limits though. [TS]
◼ ► I have a says the that was a U.S.B. Three interface and it's only going to use like you know. [TS]
◼ ► I don't know what the in a hundred megs a second two hundred megs second from I don't know but like. [TS]
◼ ► Yeah I have when I got my first it's the it was it was one of the hundred sixty gig Intel X. [TS]
◼ ► That was a few hundred dollars when I got I think I was like three or four hundred bucks when I got it for a laptop [TS]
◼ ► Well if you can drive was really good and if I had a computer that had people ever also suffuse nervous really good [TS]
◼ ► As opposed to making one yourself I don't know when compared to compared to a hard drive. It's radically better.. [TS]
◼ ► Compared to a real S.S.D. It is noticeably worse not all that not doing everything. But you. [TS]
◼ ► Do it like a lot of people are complaining that when I do the i Mac. Price comparison to the macro. I spec out. [TS]
◼ ► The terabyte as is D. In both. Because that's what I would buy. And that's what I would recommend people buying. [TS]
◼ ► And you look at all you have to draw them like those with the same you have I five just as possible C.P. [TS]
◼ ► I haven't used one either so I can't say but like I have you know. Life. My main drive it has a day or can. [TS]
◼ ► It's a big day that's that's the thing it's hurting me the most is that for this for me to last another year [TS]
◼ ► and I could probably pare that down to tear it. But that's a lot of money to jumping onto by my old one. [TS]
◼ ► I was something to do once you get him back bro you want to get rid of that thing I'll probably take it off your hands [TS]
◼ ► if you give me a good price on it and then I can squeeze myself into that in the last and then the G.P.O. I'm thinkin. [TS]
◼ ► You could buy the whole my pro from it has the eighty I video card in it like the high end one that will high end for [TS]
◼ ► but it was the high one that was available because like a quarter of the speed of the pro ones are about fifty eight [TS]
◼ ► Express card than to pay for shipping for the whole macro but you know that will make a bigger difference of course. [TS]
◼ ► That's that's maybe the only thing that will make a big difference because maybe I wouldn't even notice the. [TS]
◼ ► but I think of the macro is still on the table if I can get some amazing hardware discount which I'm still working on. [TS]
◼ ► But I'll say. Yeah. I mean I think. We talked about it for now. What you think K.C. I was going to go on the show. [TS]
◼ ► Like I'm not actually angry but just to be funny I was genuinely thinking about hanging up and just going to bed. [TS]
◼ ► And seeing what you two did by listening to the show. Well you can Michael La Party did that unprofessional last week. [TS]
◼ ► Yeah that's sure I forgot you can't you can't do it for a while here copying law that's true. [TS]
◼ ► I bet we're going to have enough to fill up half of next episode and then that'll pretty much be it because and. [TS]
◼ ► Well transition smoothly into complaining about like about that. Yeah exactly. And with the monitor situation whatever. [TS]
◼ ► Because that's bore even tell it was what i'm obsessed about. Currently And what you're obsessing about and stuff. [TS]
◼ ► I think talking about they review and the State of the machine itself and the compromise in it that's good. [TS]
◼ ► Hemming and hawing about what I should guess that just makes people angry like was build a game B. C. [TS]
◼ ► Your video card slow. You know. Well but. But it is helpful like. So much of the feedback email that we get is. [TS]
◼ ► Minor differences like oh do I need to get to define hundred the D'sevyn hundred that you know that's less important. [TS]
◼ ► But big picture things talking about. Do I get a macro beef for years or and I'm back every two. [TS]
◼ ► You know that's that I think is is more useful to more people I love that one goal was you could tell me as a buy [TS]
◼ ► I would never have a good machine for gaming during that whole bunch of like we're just every three years I have a [TS]
◼ ► continuing mediocre to crappy game machine for gaming whereas you know I'll leave for brief moment I want to play high [TS]
◼ ► and games at full resin and slow that the machine age out and then for brief moment be the top of the heap and. [TS]
◼ ► It's just what you do with cars. I'm never the top of the heap far brief moment I have a brand new Accord. [TS]
◼ ► but it actually is much closer in price than that it's like when you spec it out it's actually not that much cheaper. [TS]
◼ ► It is cheaper but not half sheepishly in the other people in her room saying you have already have a crappy game. [TS]
◼ ► I know what do you think I'm thinking of replacing it or believe I have to remind me that the eight hundred G.T. [TS]
◼ ► Is slow. I know I have an old machine do you realize this is from two thousand and eight. Computer. [TS]
◼ ► It's all about you doesn't mean you just immediately had to buy whatever the out there to get rid of it I want to buy [TS]
◼ ► the right new thing to jump to a not just anything I buy I'll be faster. Mech many use probably have faster G.P.S. [TS]
◼ ► To buy only what the hell's up at the mac mini It hasn't updated in like then year and I've you think macro. [TS]
◼ ► Well at least as well as it ever did or do you think it's on its way down. I'm lookin like thinking. [TS]
◼ ► If you're if you're in the market for a lower priced mac. Or if you want like you know a second one for some purpose. [TS]
◼ ► You know the mac manual always serve the role of like something cheap to connect to a T.V. or Be in a closet. [TS]
◼ ► The laptop lineup has to be the MacMini launch at this point because laptops are of course not many as a obscure. [TS]
◼ ► You have a laptop which are way more useful and away better value than mag minis for almost all circumstances. [TS]
◼ ► So you know it's not that much cheaper than the laptops the Mini that Apple needs to keep the mini around so that [TS]
◼ ► when we're eighty years old that will be the form factor of the mac pro and sort of like you know. [TS]
◼ ► To look like maybe like the bottom third of the MacPro patient they should make it look like the stupid new why five [TS]
◼ ► bass they should. The maximum is gotten taller. Going to see me or is that a new Mechlin in your pocket. [TS]
◼ ► I keep forgetting that the mac mini got squished like a figure I saw their current current model neck me recently about. [TS]
◼ ► Yeah there's like a test massive like I was kind of used to like you know the original Mini a form factor was so cute [TS]
◼ ► I don't see the mac mini being a very good deal for any actual like desktop use as a computer as opposed to a closet [TS]
◼ ► And maybe let me review some other crap I might have from my previous computer. So the many years. [TS]
◼ ► but it is worth keeping around just because like the profit margin I got to be pretty darn good because there is cheap [TS]
◼ ► and has been going down like I feel like the the margins that product may go not like flying you want to keep you doing [TS]
◼ ► Well also because there are so many people who want to get into Macs as cheaply as they can. [TS]
◼ ► The resale market for mac minis is huge like you. You can sell a mac mini for almost what you paid for it. [TS]
◼ ► Even if it's a few years old you can sell it for a really good price because it's got a new one right now you look the [TS]
◼ ► Chivas want to six hundred bucks but it kind of sucks. The one that's actually good. Issue. [TS]
◼ ► Starts at eight hundred bucks. And it's only four gigs of RAM like well you know you have a lot more than that. [TS]
◼ ► If you want a fusion drive say to make it perform better a case around one terabyte fusion drive eleven hundred bucks [TS]
◼ ► and I'm back at that point exactly how moderate Have you seen this big shiny color screen that many has no screen. [TS]
◼ ► Right or get into a mac book air at that point. Or thirteen inch pro. There is still sell the twenty four inch. [TS]
◼ ► and twenty seven which is a comical difference all that's right the crate crazy twenty one thing no no no not the IMAX [TS]
◼ ► they saw a monitor they thought oh aren't your monitor. No no no no no you're only twenty seven. Yeah. [TS]
◼ ► The laptop will and that's that's why you know the these price points are very carefully designed and considered. [TS]
◼ ► Only only certain people going to sell themselves to my Pro The limit does Well yeah obviously that's that's ridiculous [TS]
◼ ► It's designed to get a lot of laptops and I'm Axel basically and I and I think it does that very well. [TS]
◼ ► Because really like Apple doesn't want everybody buying the many not just because of lower profit margins. [TS]
◼ ► But because that's not really the full math experience they keep you know they can't control. [TS]
◼ ► Very well what kind of monitor user that what whether you plug in to a crappy keyboard or mouse from a P.C. [TS]
◼ ► or Whether you use there's like stuff like that. If you. If you get a laptop an Apple laptop. [TS]
◼ ► Everything is included for you you have the keyboard of the trackpad it's working with gestures properly. [TS]
◼ ► You have everything in agreement as one nice package. A mac mini is sloppy and messy and uncontrolled. [TS]
◼ ► So it doesn't give as as good as integrated have an experience. So if you having somebody trying. [TS]
◼ ► Apple should want to give them the best experience they can so they keep buying Macs in the future. [TS]
◼ ► And to do that you have to have a laptop basically you know I agree with that you'd sell it anyway. Sort of kind of. [TS]
◼ ► How many. I mean to C.P.U. Generations of the many skipped I think it's gets a couple. Yeah. [TS]
◼ ► I would say probably at least three or four. It went it went a long time. The current one. I think. [TS]
