Apple hardware costs more than it did a year ago, and if you have purchased a fleet recently, you are feeling it. Now, one thing I should mention: Macs have not risen in price with inflation or performance. If you think about what a Mac mini or MacBook Air cost when they launched vs. today, I would still say they are extremely affordable. With that being said, there’s a scenario taking shape in the enterprise where the price of a Mac matters a lot less than it used to. If open-weight AI models become a real part of how companies work, Apple Silicon might end up looking basically free compared to the token bill it supplements.

Most IT teams have a reasonable handle on what AI apps are installed across their Mac environment. Your device management vendor can show you what’s running; policies can block which apps shouldn’t be there; and vendors have been adding AI visibility features over the past year. The app layer is mostly solved, but the browser remains a concern depending on your environment.

HomeKit Weekly: SwitchBot’s new light bars bring 12-zone color to Apple Home

作者 Bradley C

Lighting effects can make or break your TV room, gaming setup, etc. SwitchBot’s RGBICWW Light Bars take a different approach from most products, with dedicated cool-white and warm-white LEDs alongside the color zones. The end result means real white light for work and reading, and 12-zone RGBIC color for movies. It all works over Wi-Fi/Matter as well, so you don’t need a hub.

When installing macOS 27 (Golden Gate), Rosetta is automatically removed. If you manage a fleet with any legacy Intel-only software still in use, you need a plan in place before your users start experiencing issues. Here is what I’m doing, and I have some thoughts on vendors who are waiting until the last minute to deploy Apple Silicon-native tools.

HomeKit Weekly: Get your Halloween and Christmas automations set up now

作者 Bradley C

It’s time to get your Halloween decorations out and automate them because the gear you buy for October is the same gear you’ll use in December. Set it up once now, and all you’ll do in November is swap what’s plugged into your gear. My first real Apple Home project years ago was automating Christmas lights, and it’s still the easiest win in your entire smart home, and it’s really one of the most useful things you can do.
