    Question about WHEN to buy a MacBook Pro...

    With the RUMORED announcement of the new MacBook Pro looming... For someone like me who doesn't care about the latest/greatest, does Apple usually drop the prices on their PREVIOUS model (say the 2015 models) once the newest model comes out? That is a typical business practice, however, Apple...

    iPad mini Do you think we'll see a new iPad mini?

    Would it be a "Pro" version? iPad mini 5? or they're going to overlook it for now? no ones mentions it when they speak of the upcoming "September 7th event" but it really fits the lifecycle. So what do you guys say?

    iPad Pro What could Apple add to iPad to make it truly "Pro"?

    I thought it would be interesting to start a discussion about what Apple would need to add to the iPad Pro for you to consider it a "Pro" device, or for it to replace your laptop. Currently, if I needed an ultra-portable machine I'd buy a MacBook. I need apps like Toon Boom Studio, Adobe...

    May not look new. But can certainly sound it.

    With my modern gear still up in Dublin and my MBP and Logic Pro X not much good without it I'm still stuck with just the G5 Quad and Logic Pro 9. And my beautiful Yamaha CVP-501 of course. Anyone hear play GTA 5 and you'll know the radio station FlyLoFM. I've always wanted to make a track that...
