I object your honor. Big Mac is only telling us what he thinks will happen; speculation, rumors, and analysis based on past trends are hardly cause for concern. I see no evidence!

Sure, Apple might go to an OS-only strategy when the hardware is making them less money than they would on software. And Canada might become a totalitarian, military nation when zo…

I doubt Apple is planning on supporting any old PC. For one thing, with each new revision of OS X Intel, more and more kexts start disappearing which used to support older hardware…

I literally halved the amount of seconds it took for my Linux box to crunch a seti block (from 14,000 seconds to just under 6000) by going to Crunch3r's optimized client and switc…
