What if they do it in a week? You never know.

Well, don't forget about any of us, but still. I don't know. I'm just really amused at the thought of breathing life into the Mac Mini. I just think that would be really fun. And everything else, I don't feel like I'm in the market for a new MacBook Pro. I don't want a Mac studio that's not filling a need I have.

However, I will say just, I think it was earlier today, maybe it was yesterday, somehow I got thinking about y'all's monitors and how the XDR is like, It's not 10 years old. It's like five years old now, though, isn't it? How old is that thing?

I mean, to put things in perspective, Michaela is in first grade right now, and she is six and a half years old. That thing came out when she was one, and now she's in first grade. The XDR is old, and the studio display ain't much better.

Well, that is true, but it's still a very, very old monitor. And I don't know. I would like to see the monitors refreshed. And I think Mike had mentioned promotion on an external monitor. I think that would be really neat. Is it a need I have? No. But would I love it? Heck yeah, I would.

Oh, it's fine. It's fine. It had a little bit of a rough entry, but it's fine.

Yeah. For the record, I did have to power cycle my studio display, not irregularly when I first got it. And I think it's been at least a year since I've had to do that, possibly more. I cannot remember the last time I've needed to do it.

And, you know, I have this array of the studio display in the center and the bequeathed LG 5K from Marco on one side and one that I had bought secondhand on the other. and I maintain that while the LG UltraFine is fine, the studio display is noticeably better, and it does have weirdness, and the camera is just trash. It is straight trash. The camera is real bad.

But other than that, it's actually a pretty darn nice screen, and I would love to get Studio Display 2 to put in the center and downgrade the current studio display to either my left or right side and just move everything down a notch. which actually brings me to a mostly unrelated point. So I have the, the most recent Apple TV in the living room. I have the one generation back in the bedroom.

And then I use the two generation back one. So this is, you know, several years old now. Um, as the like tailgate Apple TV, or if I, if we're traveling somewhere for a long time, we'll bring that Apple TV. Um, I feel like the eldest Apple TV is getting real long in the tooth at this point. And I would love to have another instance where I filter everything down a notch.
