Next MacBook (Air)

[Yoused]

I got me a cheap-ish Canon that has WiFi built in, so, on the road, I can copy images directly to my iPad (using the Canon app, which also allows me to use the iPad as a viewfinder). Wireless is massively more pleasant to use than dinking around with cards.

And I have an old Time Capsule, which soldiers on after many years. Handy for storing stuff off my iPad, since my current Mac is a G5 iMac. WiFi NAS is so freaking much more convenient than cabling. I kind of fail to understand why it is not more popular: if I was using a notebook on Concourse C, being able to keep all my real work in my shirt pocket would make me feel a lot safer given that a notebook in public could be snatched in an instant.

Sounds like it may be more like a MacBook than a MacBook Air, and may be named MacBook instead. M2 chip (Avalanche? 3nm or 5nm+?), no tapered design, iMac-like colors.

This turned out to be pretty accurate. It even got the notch from the bigger MBP.

Speaking of the notch, this seems like a pretty neat app idea that “embraces” the notch…
