Good to see that Apple have a new MacBook Air, what a capable machine for a
very decent price.

Also reassuring in way to see that Apple's executives still have that problem
with their nappies that means they can't stand like normal people. Or maybe
they all have terrible vertigo and it feels like the ground is swaying beneath
their feet.

Some great lines. "We studied thousands of heads."

Always good to see Craig Ferenghi standing like he's got balls the size

Size of apples surely - maybe large cooking apples ;)

I see macOS 14 beta can now be downloaded :

I like the bigger 15” screen model. I need to compare its performance
against my original 2020 M1 MacBook Pro before reaching into my pocket
though. At the very least I wouldn’t have to temporarily sacrifice a TB
port to charge it up!

Somewhat faster; much better screen; more lovely lovely ports.
And as usual just a chunk too expensive once you take it to 16gig ram
and up the storage a bit... even after including selling the old one.
Sigh.

I reckon a new 15 inch M2 MBA with 16GB RAM and 1TB SSD would be around
£2K. Not sure my pocket is deep enough :(
