This Week in Apple History
On August 15, 1998, the original iMac started shipping to customers after it was announced a few months earlier, in May of that year. The first iMac featured a 233MHz PowerPC G3 CPU, 32MB of RAM, a 4GB hard drive, a 15-inch CRT display, a CD-ROM drive, and USB-A ports.

AI? Just make autocorrect work!
On the previous Macworld Podcast, we talked about Siri, AI, and Apple Intelligence, and we posted a short video where Jason asks, why can’t Apple just get autocorrect to work? That resonated with viewers on Tiktok.
i can’t stand when i type out a specific word and auto correct completely changes it
I was asking Siri for some basic measurement conversions and half the time it asked if I’d like to use ChatGPT to find the answer. How is it still so unreliable/useless??
as a software dev it is extremely annoying to see all these companies drop everything in their backlog to throw anything Al related at the wall. let all their software languish while they chase the current fad
They know their customers better than anyone, I suppose. But man, the way they just ignore basic requests from the consumer market. Make autocorrect work. Give me a bigger battery, even if it makes the thing thicker. Are consumers that inconsequential?
Apple new OS look
Merlin Wrightson is using the macOS Tahoe beta, and said on Facebook:
I think, for now at least, there’s not much to improve for either Mac/iOS or Google/Android. Batteries are the key I reckon, not glassy icons. Just my opinion of course.
