The Mac & Forth Show 234 - A Feature Or Failure?

It’s been a week already since our last episode so Dean, Alan, Steve and Karl gather once again to go over the week’s Apple and technology news. Reports claim Apple stopped working on secure iCloud backups due to external pressure, but did they? The EU is trying to cut down on e-waste but that doesn’t mean the lighting connector is necessarily on the way out. Time Cook gets excited by augmented reality, again and Apple announces their release dates for their next slate of TV shows. All this and slightly more on this week’s episode.

The Mac & Forth Show 225 - Scissors and Butterflies

Apple has finally revealed their oft rumoured new MacBook Pro allowing Alan, Steve and Karl to drool while checking their bank balances before coming to the realisation that they probably won’t be using one any time soon. We now have a narrower window for the release of the powerful Mac Pro, something else they probably won’t get to use any time soon, plus more rumours of Apple’s AR Glasses…which, probably, no-one is going to be able to use anytime soon….so, that’s all good then. All this and slightly more on this week’s episode.
