The 2018 iPad Pro is a Beast!

November 9, 2018 By Stephen Leave a Comment

I'm loving the new 2018 iPad Pro. It's amazingly fast, showing off Apple's chops in hardware design like no Macintosh can do. Frankly, it's as important an advance as the iPhone X! Amazing Progress from Apple When the first iPad Pro came out in 2015, I was astonished to see that Apple's in-house A9X CPU had passed the Intel Core 2 Duo CPUs in my old Mac Mini and 2007 MacBook … [Read more...] about The 2018 iPad Pro is a Beast!

I've long used a very specific and much loved keyboard: A 1987 IBM Model M. But, in need of Macintosh keys and a USB connection, I jumped at the opportunity to pick up the brand-new Das Keyboard Model … [Read more...] about Review: Das Keyboard Model S for Mac (and Why I’m Sending It Back)

April 19, 2011 By Stephen 1 Comment

Among the useful features and applications bundled into Mac OS X, Photo Booth is not exactly the most useful. Still, it's handy to sometimes have an application to snap a photo of yourself or your surroundings while on the go. But Photo Booth has no preferences pane, and the default delay and BRIGHT screen flash can ruin your picture.
