Apple makes room for new Macs by rethinking retail Vision Pro demo stations

Apple is set to streamline its retail displays, making way for new Mac models by downgrading the Apple Vision Pro demo experience.


Apple Vision Pro

Starting November 8, Apple will pilot a revised store layout in select retail locations, merging the Vision Pro demo and display tables. The shift will make space for the latest Mac products, including the M4 models.

Ultimate guide on how to use an external SSD as a working drive on macOS Sequoia

External drives are vastly cheaper than Apple's storage upgrade prices

Apple's New Mac mini is a stunning bargain for its price and its performance — but maybe only in its base configuration. Once you start adding anything like more storage, you hit Apple's excessive upgrade charges and the bargain diminishes, or even goes away entirely.

It is true that Apple has made things better, both by increasing the amount of RAM that base model gets, and also by making 256GB the smallest amount of storage you can buy.
