2013-01-16
what's happened in Apple biters i'm brian Tong and we're back from another amazing CES in Las Vegas but guess what I'm not so you know sure there might be some huge apple news that just happened but I'm on a beach right now sipping mai tais that's right I'm a time-traveling robot and I can be at two places at once now instead of giving you guys no show at all we ask you to ask us your burning questions you know the Apple bike crew that's right people like the lovable Charlie or my super thoughtful and amazing producer Jamie and really the happiest guy on our team Jim so let's get your important questions first vignesh shashidhar asks do you know when we can expect to see a touchscreen on a Mac I think eventually someday we will but what needs to happen first is that OS 10 needs to take on even more iOS like features now I could see a touchscreen imac that would be great for business displays and restaurants apple won't try to be just like windows 8 and consumers really aren't asking for a touchscreen desktop yet but we're getting there now chances of this happening in 2013 I'm going to say not this year but it wouldn't be a surprise if we possibly do now Chris Wang ass Apple is just not innovating as much anymore should I be worried well Chris apples really a more mature company now and it's okay to have a solid year like they did in 2012 we just need to see something in 2013 and that thing is probably going to be the apple TV or something for the living room now Tim Cook pretty much said they're working on it and 2013 will really be the year that they either stay ahead of the game or really lose their mojo all right Jerome Walker ass ipad 3 or iPad Mini drom here I'd say either pony up for the ipad 4 or wait until the ipad mini retina that's probably a better way to spend your money if you ask me now we also get some fun corrections from the Apple biters like this one from Chris lampe about an episode a while while back he writes in with despite misters our necks claimed that it would be possible to put Bryan in a kona bag and fly him on a unicorn to a rainbow sunrise unicorns don't actually have wings the following week use an image of Pegasus to illustrate a comment about tech unicorns I find this laughs most distressing and hope you will issue a correction soon so I can stop fearing for the future of our nation thanks for bringing this to our attention and I stand corrected mr.
