MacBook Pro, What’s Next for Apple, and AppleInsider’s Secret Lab

You'd think that everything there was to know about the new 14-inch MacBook Pro and revised 16-inch MacBook Pro was already known, but then you don't have a secret laboratory. The AppleInsider podcast goes in deep on the details, and also examines when you should concentrate on specification details, and when you should not.

There's a lot to discuss about just physically getting hold of a MacBook Pro, too, as online preorders keep slipping, yet certain models are tantalizingly in plentiful supply in Apple Stores. It's much the same with the Apple Watch Series 7, too, and we explain just why everything is so hard to find this year.

Plus, you may not be all that fussed about the notch in the new MacBook Pro, but Apple knew some people would be very vocal about it. So they already added a workaround to macOS Monterey.

Speaking of Apple adding things, it is surely now going to pick up more subscribers to it services. Apple Music is now on the Playstation 5, and Comcast is bringing Apple TV+ to its subscribers.

That could just be enough, just about, to mean Apple isn't doomed. What with having only taken in a mere $83.4 billion in the September quarter and beaten all financial records. It's tough being Apple.
