But I (as well as others) have responded to certain claims that the nMP is a "perfect device" for certain circumstances simply by saying that the nMP is not unique for those instances. There are other machines out there. Possibly cheaper. Possibly more efficient. For whatever reason you seem to take offense to this kind of discussion.
This thread has veered wildly off topic, but that's to be expected since there's really only so much any of us can say about will there or won't there be an update this year. So instead we're all speculating on the future of the device and what Apple's intent is with the device. So lighten up a bit and don't get so bent out of shape when someone offers a dissenting opinion. Just respond with some logic in kind.![]()
Actually, Apple said it was great with 4k. You're the one who feels they're trying to trick us. It's a newer/accessible technology for the group of users Apple is looking to attract IMO. But that's where you think they don't want to attract new customers.
Somehow the conversation then morphs into speculating about good purchasing decisions...as if it somehow matters. --And of course this logic only applies to the nMP argument. Because we all know iPhone sold like crazy and for why? Status symbol. It had nothing to do with power and need.
I think I'm the one that tried to steer the conversation towards a new beginning for the nMP...Like Apple states on their website. And true to form, I believe at one point you tried to suggest it didn't matter how the site was organized.
I didn't get out of sorts and hope you didn't as well. Life is too short for that. I did enjoy going back and forth with you. And fwiw, I'm still correct in that there's no nMP on the horizon. When they do announce it, I'll be happy for the ones that have been waiting. If nothing else, we all deserve a whisper quite computer.
