Apple seeded a new beta of OS X El Capitan yesterday, and now the company is making the same software available to its public beta testers.

It’s usually a question of when, not if, your charging cable is going to start wearing around the point where the cord meets the connector.

And then the whole sad process starts over.

One company is hoping to break the cycle with a leather cable that is not only tough but also aims to be the best-working cord you’ve ever bought.

Apparently that’s not good enough for Tim Cook though, who asked IBM VP Fletcher Previn, “well, what about the other third?” when the company told the Apple CEO of the massive bulk order they were planning.
