![]() Time to find out if this modular storage is actually upgradable.Īfter a lot of testing-some of it interrupted by Apple server issues-we actually have some definitive answers. We popped this stick into another base model Mac Studio’s empty slot, but Configurator kept giving us DFU restore errors. A single Torx screw, some isolation tape, and the internal storage is free-there’s even a spare slot right here on the board! Say what you will about the “trash can” Mac Pro, at least it had immediately accessible upgrades. Our next victim: a super exciting frame that gets in the way of storage removal. A couple stubborn connectors later, we find that the Studio really commits to this fashion statement-Apple’s industrial design team covered the entire power supply in black tape and color-synchronized goop. ![]() This black expanse is the underside of the power supply, not the antenna plate we’ve seen in minis past. Don’t get stumped by that smooth exterior peeling up the foot ring reveals four friendly Torx screws. (Something tells us this new cube won’t have a convenient opening handle.) Let’s Get CrackingĮnough with the outside-time to figure out how to crack this thing open. The Studio is just about two-and-a-half Mac minis tall, but it’s dwarfed by Steve Jobs’ ‘stunning’ Power Mac G4 cube. The rear is decked out with four Thunderbolt 4 ports, ethernet, USB-A, HDMI, and even a glorious headphone jack. Remember all the ports that Macs used to have? Welcome back to the future. ![]() For anyone who has been living in Jony Ive’s Dongleverse for the last decade, this is a breath of fresh air. Hard to Port!Īpple has graced us with two forward-facing USB-C ports and an SD card slot. This feels like the Macs we used to love, in all the best ways. I mean M1 Max Mac Studio. No trash can, no cheese grater, just a single block of extruded aluminum with plenty of room for fans. And ports! They’ve even included ports on the front. If Apple squeezed a Mac Pro into a Mac mini, you’d get something that looks a lot like the new Studio Mac-I mean Max Studio. Is use to love but don't open it anymore (except for comparison with other tools).The text below comes from a shooting script for the video above it may not perfectly reflect the dialogue of that video. It will end that only nostalgic will use it, since it become not compatible with the last evolution on the OS. Others become diary on journal tools (MWeb again, or but-now-only-subscription model DayOne), or try to be full writing tool like the veteran iA Writer, ByWord, or the complete-but-now-only-subscription model Ulysses, but also the new FOSS complete Zettlr. Some go to be notes apps (libke Bear, MWeb, which is one of my favorites, but quite expensive, FSNotes, or the open source Joplin, Notable Boostnote). Though, it's still lightweight, functional, with good feature (themable, fully markdown support, support of TOC, shell plugin, neat keystrokes, multiple views, tab bar, …), which made it really a complete tool, the market of markdown editors really evolved, and neither paid nor free or FOSS apps are now competing. ![]() Macdown was a very helpful alternative to Mou when Chen Luo abandonned it, but it seems that uranusjr abandonned Macdown too.
