What’s in the Guts of Apple’s Most Powerful Computer Ever? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The Mac Studio has a new calling in life. For awhile, it seemed like overkill for just about anyone, regardless of profession. But these days, computers with over 64 GB of RAM and tons of GPU performance have an entire playground of on-device AI tools to exclusively explore. With a Mac Studio, you can have a full-on agentic AI framework, generate high-end video all on-device, or run the latest foundation-level large language models (LLMs). The Mac Studio is relatively unique among the available
We Just Got Our First Real Look at AI PCs With Nvidiaâs RTX Spark âSuperchipâ (opens the original)
Read excerpt

I was hunting for a Windows laptop with the same goal as the MacBook Neo—hiding its compromises and delivering an otherwise premium laptop at a lower cost. For months, it was crickets. Then, the Dell XPS 13 showed up on my doorstep, and it understood the assignment. For many reasons, this was the one I'd been waiting for. But the quest
Your Home Office Is Being Held Back by Your Computer Monitor (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Most people never think about the monitor they use. But not you.

Different work has different needs, and finding the monitor that suits your specific use case can be tricky with all the options out there. But with over a decade of testing and reviewing monitors under my belt, here are my recommendations on what you should buy today. For m
