Adding a VLAN is a snap.

It was already trivial!

It's a great idea.

Amazing they haven't had it up until now.

Makes using OneDrive or ODfB so much easier if you can sync locally.

@harry-lui It is accepted everywhere...

Not true.

Here is the current Mac Pro, the top of the line system: https://www.apple.com/mac-pro/specs/

Honestly, it's not impressive. This is not "power" hardware by any stretch. The price is high, but the gear in it is lackluster. They've not released a "power" product since 2013, what they released then was this which is pretty hampered, and they don't plan to update it until 2019 at the earliest.

It's not hard at all to see how an ARM-based system might compete really, really well here. Apple's "power user" hardware isn't on par with power users from the rest of the industry as it stands today and their refresh cycles are absurd so that anyone in their "power users club" has to already feel totally abandoned under the current model of things.

Could be closer to 87M users. Wow.

That is just funny to read.

My six year old is now officially a power user of the Internet.

Hah! I was just cleaning out my email and found a survey from them. Wonder if they'll actually respond to me.

@JaredBusch Including facial recognition, but not really limited to that. @scottalanmiller expressed my thought in a very clear and laconic manner:

Of course, this directly affects all ISPs, but I'm also curious to see if this will also affect cell phone carriers worldwide. Will they also go bankrupt in time or will they have to adapt to stay relevant? Would cell phines even be able to communicate? Currently no, but in the near future?

It looks like it's being pitched as a competitor to cellular devices.

That'll take a lot of work to get mobile devices able to talk to it. If they can get that cheap and reliable, it'll be the killer thing.
