NEC’s new PC lineup for the US includes a 4K OLED laptop
[ad_1] Those who value portability over all else might prefer the LaVie Pro Mobile (pictured at center). It’s using a low-voltage 1.8GHz Core i7 and a 13.3-inch 1080p display, but it delivers a claimed 15 hours of battery life and sports a carbon lid that keeps the weight down to a featherweight 1.85 pounds. The […]
Apple’s redesigned Mac Pro will be available to order December 10th
[ad_1] The Pro Display XDR is easier to figure out. It’ll start at $4,999 for a standard model, and $5,999 with nano-texture glass that reduces glare without resorting to a coating. And yes, that infamous stand will set you back $999 if the $199 VESA mount doesn’t do the trick. This is a professional display […]
Apple may reveal its 16-inch MacBook Pro tomorrow
[ad_1] There’s no mention of a corresponding update to the 13-inch model, although that’s not surprising. Apple only just updated the smaller laptop in July — it’s a bit soon for a refresh, let alone a major one. And while Intel does have 10th-generation laptop chips, they’re U- and Y-series chips meant largely for ultraportables […]
Calvin Harris already has the new Mac Pro
[ad_1] The sighting came just days after Apple held a Final Cut Pro X summit where it teased “surprises from the Apple product team.” It’s not clear if that involved Mac Pro demos or news, but the timing is hard to ignore. The Mac Pro recently received FCC approval, so there’s not much holding it […]

Intel has revealed that its special edition Core i9-9900KS processor will be available on October 30th at a recommended price of $513. If you’ll recall, this is […]
Crowdfunded case will give your Windows PC that Mac Pro look
[ad_1] It’s on the inside where you’ll see the more noticeable changes. The case will support motherboards ranging from mini ATX through to extended ATX, and it can accept video cards up to 380mm (15 inches) long — you can stuff a GeForce RTX 2080 Ti inside if this will serve as a gaming rig. […]
Apple gets US approval for Mac Pro tariff exemptions
[ad_1] Reports have circulated that Apple was moving production to China, but that’s not necessarily the case. Tim Cook mentioned during Apple’s latest earnings call that the company wanted to keep making Mac Pros in the US and was investing in additional capacity. Even if Apple does assemble the reworked Mac in the US, though, […]
Slack’s latest update should make its desktop app more efficient
[ad_1] It’ll launch up to 33 percent faster and you’ll be able to hop into a call with your colleagues or collaborators up to 10 times more quickly, which should save you time. It’ll also hog up to 50 percent less memory, easing the strain on your machine so you can perhaps have even more […]
iTunes isn’t dead
[ad_1] Even Apple knew it. The intro to the iTunes portion of today’s keynote was a tongue-in-cheek bit about adding Calendar, Mail and Safari inside the desktop app. “One thing we hear over and over: Can iTunes do even more?” quipped vice president of software Craig Federighi. The current version of iTunes (Nathan Ingraham/Engadget) Once […]
