There ’s a lot of rending of garments of late over the geriatric nature of the Mac lineup and a passel of usage of the term “ long in the tooth ” which is stupid because if you bite your Mac you will almost certainly void the warranty , ha - ha , that ’s a joke , the Apple Care on your Mac ran out 14 months ago .
“ Brian Hall : Apple ‘ doing their client a disservice ’ claims the General Manager of Microsoft Surface . ”(Tip o ’ the antler toBabyG. )
Well , really , who else are you going to postulate if not the guy in commission ofone small-arm of hardware ?
“ Not indisputable what their problem is ! It ’s inordinately easy from where I ’m sit ! ”
He ’s not wrong about the Mac card being a bit aged , however . This is a on-key account : Just this very day the Macalope ’s spouse was strip out the refrigerator and found a jar of jam that expire in 2013 . Those jam werefresher than much of Apple ’s current Mac lineup .
We still did n’t eat them .
reasonably much everyone take on that new Macs are on the mode , at the very least a new MacBook Pro . Which is why this is the perfect time to kvetch . AsNeil Cybart observe :
Writing posts about the lack of updated Apple ironware a month before Apple ’s annual hardware event is … odd .
Well , Neil , get on . pundit ca n’t very well write themafterApple releases new ironware . How would that work ? Not at all .
It has been a farsighted meter between refreshes for some of these mathematical product but asJoel Hruska explain , it ’s not entirely Apple ’s break , a spate of Apple ’s refresh cycle describe off Intel ’s central processing unit upgrades .
The first thing to note is how little Intel ’s splintering lineup has actually changed in the past three years .
…
In short , there ’s just not much reason to update the Mac Pro ’s CPU — not until and unless Intel can field figure that really deserve it .
There are other non - processor improvements Apple could have made and Apple is , of course , the one ultimately responsible for get to an appealing destruction production . It does n’t avail to point fingers when you ’ve got an ailing Mac that desperately needs replacing and theMacRumors buying guidehas enough red lights to make a really speculative day at the nuclear plant .
The newfangled Macs are coming , they just ca n’t come too soon .
