    Intersted in Classic Mac Pro

    This is probably sort of a weird one... I have always loved the design of the classic Mac Pro and have wanted one for a while because of that.

    Why Apple still sucks at software design??

    I mean look at this. Are they blind or what? With cluttered wallpaper like that the text is almost unreadable. One would think that they'll learn a lesson since iOS 7... but no. I wouldn't normally make this thread, but the fact they proudly showing it in the new iPad Pro ad is just mind...

    New iPad Pro's Actual Design Kinda Sucks

    Don't get me wrong. What they've done with the screen is great. USB-C and the A12x are awesome. But the body/chassis design looks like a big step backwards. Its thinner, but it appears thicker due to the slab-sided appearance. The chamfered edges, which added a nice touch, are gone. The...

    iPhone 8/Plus the iphone notch originally samsungs

    I expect this has been covered before, but I'm constantly reminded when I see iphone design clones that my old Samsung Omnia i900 had a notch at the top of the screen years before the iphone did, and yet there doesn't seem to be a design infringement lawsuit taking place?
