    Should I buy the 512 gb or 16 gb of ram for the new M2 MacBook Air? I can only afford one

    I’m a computer science major who will have big coding assignments but nothing crazy. I don’t do a lot of high end editing on a regular basis. My only professional use would be these coding projects, other than that, maybe a light gaming(not a big gamer at all), Netflix and everyday things on...

    Hey all, I have a topic that's been discussed before, but most of what I can find is quite a few years old. Also I wasn't sure which category to add this to, so I figured I'd add it to iOS because it can apply to multiple devices. With this said: Most of the old articles out there that...

    Is there someday the Apple printer will come?

    Do you think Apple will design its own printer? If the engineers from Cupertino develop something new, better, and more efficient in this area, they would completely revolutionize the printer market. That would be great... What do you think?
