July 17, 2002: Apple ships a new super-sized iMac G4, offering a 17-inch widescreen LCD display that becomes the envy of most computer users at the time.
“The best consumer desktop just got even better,” says Steve Jobs of Apple’s new all-in-one computer. “Having this gorgeous 17-inch flat screen floating in mid-air right in front of you is simply breathtaking. There’s nothing like it in the PC world.” He wasn’t wrong!
Fortnite just got its biggest patch in weeks, and there are lot of changes and improvements for players to look forward to in version 9.40.
Highlights include new, more powerful variants of the tactical shotgun, and the reintroduction of the bolt-action sniper rifle. Epic Games has also added support for Bluetooth microphones on iPhone and iPad.
Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey reportedly made a stopover at Apple Park on Tuesday, addressing employees in the marketing department.
It’s not exactly clear what was discussed. However, it does suggest “strong ties” between Apple and the microblogging company.
We’re still a couple months away from Apple unveiling the new iPhones, and YouTuber Marques Brownlee has given us what may be the best glimpse so far at Apple’s next-gen handsets.
In a new video, Bronwnlee gives his thoughts on dummy models of the iPhone 11, 11 Max, and 11R. While these aren’t working units, they are dimensionally-correct mockups created for case-makers. As such, you can put decent stock in these being pretty accurate.

You need a 2019 MacBook Pro, but there are so many of configurations to choose from, with the top model more than twice as expensive as the base one. Naturally, Apple makes you pay extra for a faster processor, but is the additional cost worth it?

July 17 is World Emoji Day and to celebrate, Apple offered a preview of some the new emoji characters arriving on iPhone and iPad later this year.
The new additions add more diversity to characters along with new animals, foods, activities and smiley faces. Nearly 60 new emoji are set to be added including a skunk, skydiver and sloth.
Take a look at what’s new:
When you spend upwards of $1,000 on a smartphone, you shouldn’t rely on a $3 case to keep it safe. You should protect your investment by lavishing it in luxurious leather that keeps (almost) every inch of it suitably covered up.
That’s what I did with the gorgeous Ullu Pocket Wallet.
Handcrafted from Italian calf leather, this case carries your iPhone and credit cards in a compact, stylish package that won’t weigh you down. It protects your handset from scratches, scuffs, and dirt without getting in your way.
It’s also on sale right now — and you should get your own.
A pair of Apple videos were nominated for the Emmy Award for Outstanding Commercial. One celebrates the history of the Mac, while the other beautifully shows off the capabilities of the iPhone XS camera.
Watch both of them now.
The Photos app on the Mac has two options for storing your photos. You can tell it to keep the full-size originals of everything, or you can have it self-manage, keeping your master library in iCloud and storing a mixture of full-resolution and low-res versions locally to save space.
The trouble is, even when you choose the “Optimize Mac Storage” option, the Photos app’s storage can metastasize and take over your whole drive. Today we’ll see how to cap this storage, giving Photos a hard limit on how much space it can use. For instance, if you have a MacBook with a 128GB SSD, you could choose to only use 30GB for Photos — and it will never, ever use more.
