@matthewsmithjd I'm glad you find it helpful. I haven't had time to work on it since the last major update (iPhone, etc.). Can't say much about the future, though. I will be keeping my iOS development equipment updated (getting an M3? Learning Swift) but not necessarily for it.

@shanselman Congrats, Scott. So well-deserved.

Sorry to hear this. The computer industry is so young that so many of its pioneering giants have still been with us. But that era is fading away. reuters.com/technology/ado…
Apple #VisionPro: What happens when you watch something that literally brings tears to your eyes? Are the internals waterproof? Would tears get on cameras or affect eye-tracking? Easy take off/put back on w/pause/repeat-last-10-sec to wipe eyes? (Asking for a friend...)
@zetruenando @RobertSartor @harrymccracken A mode III is not an upgrade from a II. It is different in many respects, including floppy drive size. The II was more for business/accounting-like work.
@harrymccracken The Model III was was a wonderful machine. Keyboard, CPU, and disk drive all in one box. And not too big.

Re: Apple Vision Pro pricing: Back in 1981, my father paid the equivalent of $10,000 in 2023 dollars for a loaded TRS-80 Model III. His employer did foot the bill. But it still reminded me of how pricey the earliest PCs were.
@stevesi I did lots of work in that area in the early 1990s and shipped a product: AtHand for PenPoint. (Including some patents one can still read.) Our company did an add-in for Excel (Slate PenPower) to do some of the same. I guess this was all lost. Sigh.
Did Microsoft stop hardware & OS work after talking to Apple about #VisionPro, but continue all the Office, etc., work? MS reportedly made more (after costs) on each 1984 Mac selling S/W (MultiPlan, Word, etc.) than Apple did the H/W. MS has gesture experience from PenWindows.
The original Apple II required execs to use a keyboard like a (usually female) secretary, have a Sony TV on the desk, and a rainbow ribbon cable. How dorky! With s/w like spreadsheets they outdid their coworkers. Wait for killer apps for #VisionPro. It's worthy of them.
@stevesi Here's a patent (Microsoft's from Aha!) that addresses using pen gestures to add space to "ink". I think Microsoft abandoned lots of this with OneNote. patents.google.com/patent/US56130… . I wrote up some table computing history here: bricklin.com/tabletcomputin…
@stevesi (I'm talking about app design, not OS functionality to enable gestures.)
@stevesi Having worked in the pen apps world (and holding some patents on special gestures for spreadsheets and other tools), thinking about gestures is more than copying just those.
It seems that Apple is "over the bar" on a variety of important "must haves". (One is consistent "no nausea" reports including from multiple females. Also affordable for enough developers.) Maybe they finally got there so it's time to release to developers to innovate. #VisionPro
"Vision Pro and VisionOS feel like they’ve been pulled forward in time from the future. I haven’t had that feeling about a new product since the original iPhone in 2007. There are several aspects of the experience that felt impossible." daringfireball.net/2023/06/first_…
