#WHY NO APPLE NEWS FOR MAC PRO#
Air, MacBook Pro - Mac mini, Mac Pro - even AirPods, AirPods Pro - see where I'm going with this? Apple Watch, Apple Watch Pro - KIDDING! iMac, return of the iMac Pro. IPhone, iPhone Pro - iPad, iPad Pro - MacBook. So what I'm hoping for, what I'd do if I had the Infinity Stones, the ability to cast Power Word… Thrill… isn't just an M1X iMac… but a full-on M1X iMac Pro.

While performance efficiency is huge, and M1 is… industry-changing… it ain't everything. Sure, 10 core… cores aren't 18 Xeon Cores, that 128GB of RAM aren't ECC or error-correcting RAM, and all the other parts are more prosumer than enterprise server-grade, but it's still well beyond the just-announced M1 iMac in everything but performance efficiency. Maybe never Big Navi in Apple lands… up to an eventual 256GB of RAM, 8 TB of SSD, Nano texture option for the display… Starting at $1800. Apple's still got the 27-inch Intel iMac with up to 10 Comet Lake cores and AMD Radeon Pro… Yeah, no Big Navi in Apple land. Here's the thing - the M1 iMac isn't an iMac Pro. In 2021, when Apple first end-of-lined the Intel iMac Pro, and then John Ternus, the new head of hardware engineering, announced the all-new, all-rainbow colored M1 iMac. Then 2020, when Apple's CEO, Tim Cook, announced they were transitioning from Intel to Apple Silicon, to the M1. I'm most interested to see how Apple uses this year's WWDC to highlight the benefits it can offer developers while still protecting one of its massive profit centers, the App Store.Now, flash forward to 2019, and we finally got that all-new, all modular, revenged of the cheese-grater 2.0. But thanks to groups like the Coalition for App Fairness and the overall anti-Big Tech sentiment in Western governments, developers now feel emboldened to make their complaints known. In the past, developers remained quiet about their complaints with Apple's App Store rules, lest they draw the ire of Tim Cook and company and risk their access to the App Store.

The two companies went through a three-week trial last month, and the judge's decision in the case could alter the power dynamics between Apple and app developers. That's especially apparent with the legal battle between Apple and Epic Games. The disputes over App Store fees between Apple and big-name developers like Spotify have spilled into the public view in recent months. In normal times, WWDC is a love fest between Apple and the developers who keep its massively profitable App Store chugging along.īut this year is going to be different. But Epic Games, Facebook and other firms have complained that Apple's App Store rules are too stringent and its 30% fee for digital purchases is too high.

WWDC is aimed at getting those software makers excited about Apple. Apple needs computer software companies to make apps for its platforms, which in turn makes its products more attractive to users. And when we do introduce a revenue share, it will be less than the 30% that Apple and others take," Zuckerberg wrote.Īpple's developer conference this year takes place at an uncertain time in Apple developer relations.

"To help more creators make a living on our platforms, we're going to keep paid online events, fan subscriptions, badges, and our upcoming independent news products free for creators until 2023. He said Facebook isn't charging until at least 2023, and when it does, it will take less than the 30% fee Apple charges iPhone apps using in-app purchases. In a short post on his Facebook page, Zuckerberg announced a new Facebook feature enabling users to tip social media personalities. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg needled Apple hours before its WWDC conference was scheduled to kick off.
