I hope most Intel Mac users avoided macOS 26. I kept my remaining Intel Mac on macOS 15, even though it supports macOS 26. It's not as bad as those poor folks who got stuck on OS X Lion many years ago, but it just felt wrong to move to

They have on occasion, when it makes sense to unveil OS changes and hardware simultaneously. Apple Vision Pro, move to new architecture, 2019 Mac Pro tower – that sort of thing. Most years they don't announce new hardware, though.

This is a reductive and frankly insulting response. People want to be able to communicate with other people they will use the tools that allow them to do it. Sometimes the person I want is on Instagram, that’s how I can reach out to them. I

I do not understand why a numpad is considered a necessity by some. I never used it when I had them. Do you work in data entry?

I've been a Mac user for 30+ years, but I love Raymond Chen's historical posts. I'm aware of folklore.org, but I wish there were something equivalent within Apple itself. Sadly, it's not part of Apple's culture.

This isn't a new or unique move; Apple has never prioritized backwards compatibility. If you're a Mac user, you expect this sort of thing. If running neglected software is critical to you, you run Windows or you keep your old Macs

There was a company or two that made cases for the older Apple remotes with the express purpose of making them larger, which I always thought was kind of funny. I would buy one for the current remote if one existed.

It's been 10 years since any Mac shipped with a FireWire port. That was only because they kept selling a single 13-inch non-Retina MacBook Pro model for several years. That model was also the last MacBook Pro to include a built-in opti
