Last week was quite a trip for us, cadets, complete with a secret mission: Mike and Charles once again boarded and took over the good ship AppleInsider podcast for their episode 157! Having looted and pillaged the place, the crew then returned to their own recap of the news of the week, and somehow made it different enough to (hopefully) please everybody. The big news of the week was of course Apple's update on the forthcoming Mac Pro, which is still coming but a bit less "forth" than many people thought. There was also a claim that Apple will be moving at least some of its Mac line over to ARM chips over the next few years -- that's Mike and Charles stifling a yawn you may be hearing right about now -- and some minor but notable news about the latest Intel chips in the pipeline, just for balance. There's also some new legal action, the latest skirmish in the Apple Music vs Spotify war, and Apple's world-class poach from Google. There's also some handy info on recent software that has broken under the latest macOS and iOS updates, the Facebook privacy story continues to grow new legs, Zuckerberg claps back at Cook, and a plug for Malcolm's explainer article on current and future screen display technologies. As if that weren't enough, we have some of the Space Javelin-exclusive reports such as Deal of the Week, our patented rumor debunking section "That Can't Be Right," and a new (albeit brief) Engineering Report looking at some new gear. All this and more, cadets, so remember to wear your dress uniforms to help welcome any new recruits we may have shanghaied on our AI raid! Welcome aboard!
