I can't help but wonder how Steve Jobs would have flipped out if he saw something like this on his devices. https://www.apple.com/newsroom/images/product/availability/A...

I'm so confused by that photo. Are you supposed to just duct-tape your phone to the laptop?

Expand your digital world while your apartment shrinks to the size of a closet

They are preparing us for when they put phone grade cams in the MacBook: “We compressed everything you love about the iPhone camera, and it’s entire ecosystem, into this tiny, adorable little bump on the lid” complete with a $5M, 30 second video intro. And then it will be the coolest wart ever.

It’d be cool if they used the iPhone built in magnets, and then display your phone stuff in the OS

Belkin’s iPhone Mount does use the magnets required by MagSafe [1].

But it’d be even better if the laptop lid was just magnetic!

wtf is this foto, like how is this iphone half the size of the mac? also, is it taped to the mac? I bet it would actually just drag the lid down with its weight. so it stands on something?

> like how is this iphone half the size of the mac?

That part looks correct to me?

I don't have an iPhone to compare, but my phone is easily half the size of a 14" MacBook Pro when placed like that... and Google tells me that some iPhones are basically the same size as my phone.

Given that Steve Jobs actively colluded with Eric Schmidt to depress worker wages, maybe he was just a bad person and should be memory-holed. We can build a better world without him.

A real prick move but irrelevant to what I'm talking about. I'm talking about Steve's relentless pursuit of design perfection.
