![]() ![]() Why solos and small firms? I suppose because they are more flexible in choosing the equipment they want to run their practice. The biggest chunk of those Mac users were solo practitioners (15.5 percent), and small firms (2-9 attorneys) were next. That’s a noteworthy jump from only 5.8 percent in the 2014 survey. We’re not completely sure of the total number of Mac-using lawyers, but in the 2015 Legal Tech Survey conducted by the ABA’s Legal Technology Resource Center, 8.1 percent of respondents reported that they use a Mac in their practice. They’ve become enamored with the “it just works” dependability and yearn for the same experience on their work computer. The second is that many lawyers have a Mac at home either for their own use or a family member’s (e.g., for offspring attending college). One is because they’re already using an iPhone or iPad and a Mac would complete their Apple-y experience. There are two reasons lawyers contemplate using a Macintosh in their practice. You can read their full replies in Part 2, here: “Lawyers Who Use Macs: Why They Do It and How.” How Many Lawyers Are Using Macs? For this updated two-part series, in addition to updating that earlier article here, I’ve reached out to four Mac-using lawyers - Victor Medina, David Sparks, Ben Stevens and Jeremy Worley - for their insight and advice. Three years ago, I wrote a primer for Attorney at Work on setting up an all-Mac law office. And for those who wonder about bringing a little Apple into your workspace? Come on in, the water’s fine! - The Editors Resources for Current and Future Mac Lawyersīrett Burney’s primer on what you’ll need to go “all Mac” is an Attorney at Work classic must-read.Cloud-Based Services that Mac Lawyers Use.Juggling Microsoft Office and PDF Files.What Software Do I Need to Run My Mac Law Practice?.With an updated Siri remote that is just better, hopefully in every way, including with the U1 chip in it so that we can find it if, and when it inevitably gets lost under the sofa, in the sofa cushions. Also rumored is an actual Apple gaming controller, a gamepad. The more audacious rumors are for a much higher-end Apple TV, one with an A14X processor, which would be roughly equivalent in power to what is currently in the M1 Macbook Air and Macbook Pro, something that would signal Apple taking entertainment, not just more seriously but gaming much, much more seriously maybe up to and including investing in AAA games and gaming studios. And I think that's one of those things where I'm gonna invoke the "I'll expect it when I see it" clause because even an A14X just wouldn't have Xbox Series S or Series X or PlayStation 5 GPU power, at least not as we currently imagine it. So, balancing the amount of performance with the expectations of a much harder-core gaming audience with what Apple is capable of delivering in terms of gaming experience… that would be a neat trick. Ipad Pro 11 Magic Keyboard Hero (Image credit: Christine Romero-Chan / iMore)įor the iPad Pro, rumor has it that the larger version, not the 11-inch but the 12.9-inch version, at the very least, might get a mini-LED display. Mini-LED is an improved version of LCD, thanks to technologies like local dimming zones giving you deeper shadows, brighter highlights, and much wider contrast ratios. Things that are closer to OLED without also having to mitigate all the negative aspects of OLED.Īlso rumored is an A14X system-on-a-chip (SoC) that would be almost identical to the M1 in the current Macbook Air, Macbook Pro, and Mac mini. Just without the Mac-specific IP like virtualization and x86 translation acceleration. The other advantage of the M1 chip is it has those two dedicated Thunderbolt controllers onboard. So whether Apple just makes an A14X specific chipset with one Thunderbolt port or uses the M1 and only enables one of those Thunderbolt ports, that's really an implementation detail, but either way, I would love, like all caps LOVE, having Thunderbolt on the iPad, not just for the displays that require Thunderbolt, but for the much much higher speed storage. ![]()
