Should work on the modem chip go well, VentureBeat says Intel could end up supplying Apple with both that chip and the fabrication for a new Apple system-on-a-chip. Apple is said to be aiming to create a future system-on-a-chip that includes both the iPhone's Ax processor and the LTE modem chip for improved speed and power management.

To achieve that goal, Apple would design the system-on-a-chip, licensing LTE modem intellectual property from Intel, with Intel also fabricating the chip with its 14-nanometer process. VentureBeat's sources say Apple is interested in Intel's technology because of its "front to back" 14-nanometer process that results in "silicon chips with superior density and gate pitch." Intel is also developing a 10-nanometer process that has caught Apple's eye.


intel is hosed and now they're being made a bitch by apple. the end game for intel will be to spin off the foundry business from chip design

You bleed fanboy with that comment. Some day people will see jobs and the company he built as it really is. A truely manipulative twisted greedy self centered piece of mind controlling garbage. Apple has always been last to the race yet manages to weasel its will onto this world. Some day we might evolve past such tactics and actually get to a world based on improvements rather than profits. apple and others are adopting a marketing plan based on pushing out products every year with little increase in specs/features/value and charging outrageous prices for huge profit margins. And the worst part is, people fall hook line and sinker for this garbage, not once but every cycle. I have a 4 year old phone that has yet to show any limitation in capability other than the modle number being smaller.

Go ahead and down vote the crap out of me. Every down vote proves my point. This world is hosed at this pace and with this mentality.

As the audience reluctantly began to applaud during the silence, Biden tried to fix his remarks.

"Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids -- no, I really mean it." Biden said.

mouse chat:

apple has always built their mice to be better for you based on science. the idea is you should not have to bend your wrist while using it, as that can strain the wrist. so the mice are quite flat compared to PC mice, who seem to unanimously not care if you get Carpal Tunnel syndrome. its pretty weird to me that companies would continue to sell mice that they know are bad for you. i guess it's because they can only sell things on that basis of familiarity.

if you remember the original design for the PS3 "boomerang" controller, it was the same idea. it was designed so you could use it without bending your wrists.

i believe this is the same reason the mouse acceleration on OS X is so low. Carpal Tunnel is caused by micro movements, not wide, sweeping movements. so if the OS makes you cover a wider area with your mouse to move the cursor, it's actually better for you.



also here's a profile view of the mouse. because of the arc design, there's nowhere to put the lightning port except the underside. jony et al could redesign the whole thing, but why radically redesign a mouse in 2015 when it's popularity is rapidly declining in favour of touch? this will probably be the last ever update to this product so why dedicate the effort when they just redesigned the keyboard and trackpad and are presently designing the iPhone 7 and next Macbook Pros?

redesigning this would be like voting for Obama for a 3rd term. a nice compliment, but a waste.
