With any new OS, software support is going to let it down. Does Windows Phone still lag behind Android and iOS?

The PC market has declined about 10% this year, yet Apple sold more Macs than ever in its 4th fiscal quarter (July-Sept. 2015). iPhone sales didn’t set a record – that usually happens in the holiday quarter – but they are up over the same quarter in 2014.
Apple took the 27″ Retina 5K iMac a step further with fifth generation Intel processor technology, state of the art AMD graphics, an even better Retina display with 25% greater color gamut – and at $500 less than the Late 2014 Retina iMac retailed for a year ago. As we said then, 4K resolution (4096 x 2160 pixels) […]
HTC were early adopters of the Windows Phone platform. I check out their 2013 flagship handset, the HTC 8x.
Do you want to use your Windows Phone under OS X 10.11 El Capitan? Luckily there is a third party fix.
iOS 9 has better battery management than any previous version, sometimes adding hours to the life of an iPhone’s battery. Unfortunately, the current version of the Facebook app can more than offset the extra battery life iOS 9 give you.
I had a short-lived experience using anti-virus on my Mac. Why don’t I use it anymore?
A few months ago I picked up an original Pebble watch, but is it really a smartwatch?
If you have a Windows Phone, do not upgrade to OS X 10.11 El Capitan.
Released in early 2015 – I take a look at the budget conscious Microsoft Lumia 435.
In 2014, Apple introduced the 27″ Retina 5K iMac; in 2015, Apple brings a Retina Display to the smaller iMac. The 21.5″ iMac now has a 4096 x 2304 pixel 4K display with the same dot pitch and color gamut The Late 2015 iMac also ships with the new Magic Keyboard and Magic Mouse 2 plus […]
Remember the seemingly underpowered iMac that Apple introduced in June 2014? They’ve updated it from 1.4 GHz to 1.6 GHz and kept it available as a lower cost alternative to the 21.5″ Retina 4K iMac. The Late 2015 model uses an ultra-low-power 1.6 GHz dual-core Intel i5 CPU – with Turbo Boost to the same 2.7 […]
I have a long reputation of using a Mophie Juice Pack on my iPhone and review them frequently. But why do I love them?
Nearly a decade has has passed since the last run of PowerPC Macs hit Apple’s store shelves and provided us with one last hurrah on “thinking different” and being part of the trope of “crazy ones” who simply would not conform to the norm.
Quake spawned a new era of first person shooters. I take a look at the TenebraeQuake front end for Mac OS X, which also enhances the graphics.
I’ve been using Apple computers since an Apple II+ in 1979, followed by a Mac Plus (upgraded from a 128K) in 1986, so when it came time to buy a smartphone, I looked no further than the iPhone. But the next version of Android sounds mighty tempting.
Over time, the distribution of Mac OS versions among Mac users changes as new versions of the OS are released, old Macs are retired, and new models arrive that only support the most recent version. Today we’re looking at six years worth of data.
Since the dawn of Mac OS X, there have been major and minor versions.
El Capitan is the twelth revision of Mac OS X. I give my first impressions of it.
