So, any rumors on the MacBook 15" getting a 5th generation Intel processor?

Yes, but probably not until the spring. That chip has been delayed for awhile.

I don't follow that stuff closely at all, though.

Just got the 6S plus. It's pretty accurate with GPS. Like the display as well.

Shots fired from Google. The Apple rejoinder would be you want to play the same piece, go to a roomful of pianos with vastly differently shaped keyboards and find it difficult to play the same piece without have to learn each keyboard.

They've been doing this for months, this whole campaign.

I don't see it. My phone is vastly different than my wife's. And Dave's. The case, the color, the wallpaper… They're just running the same OS. So what?

This one's from over a year ago:

Makes about as much sense as the piano one.

I would rather have a product that works, and works well, than a product that just looks a little different than my friends.

Really don't see the point of that ad campaign.

I am waiting for the SkyLake version of MBP 15" as well.

Looks more like September availability at best.  The dGPU (supposedly will use AMD's Polaris) is expected to be available in June.  That will make it more likely 15" SkyLake MBP will be announced in June (WWDC) at the earliest.  13" maybe announced in March but 15" most likely will not.

All those people expecting announcement of new 15" MBP in March will be disappointed.

I was watching TV last night and an AT&T ad came on. The customer in the ad says, "Hey Siri....". My iPhone answers, "What can I help you with?" :-P

Hey Siri, OK Google, Alexa. Be careful with these trigger words. :-)

Certain tech podcasts I know bleep those words out.

I turned that off on my phone because it happens often enough to be annoying, and I almost never do it on purpose.

I have it, but I haven't used it that much. Most of the machines still need to be updated.

I was hoping for a new MacBook Pro, but that was just speculation. No more "OS X" as the operating system name. Hopefully the Music app is better.

I'm still trying to wrap myself around the idea of an iPhone without a headphone jack, but right now, man, that's just a bad idea. I was fine with removing the dvd drive from the laptops, but no headphone jack?

    • Yes. If you choose to take the ball out of the bunker instead of taking maximum available relief… it costs a stroke.
    • I got another one today....Number 17. Par 5 that has water left and right on the layup. I smacked a drive down the left side and got a little lazy on the layup and fanned my 6 iron. With 112 to a crowned green I got it to 3 feet and birdie!  Only 5 and 15 is left for this year! 
    • Maybe I didn’t explain this properly. Back and front can be confusing.  There was no place in the bunker that didn’t have 2-3 inches of rain water in it, except for a small spot on the slope nearest the pin. If I had dropped there I would be moving 6-7 feet closer to the hole. Since my ball was just inside the bunker, farthest side from the hole, I dropped one club length backward, which brought me out of the bunker. I could not have hit from that deep of water. Are you saying I would have had to take a penalty stroke due to rain water? 
    • Day 550, May 5, 2024 Got a good hour in with a typical (for me) two-stick setup: pool noodle angled in front, yardstick on the ground angled 45° behind me.
    • Day 130: Cinco de Mayo Day 7/24 of Full Speed Spectrum training. Difficult training day after struggling to certify my warmup yesterday, and today. Finished 13 mph lower than my training speed on Thursday. Hope to hit some balls today.
