00:08:24 ◼   ► front of an event supposed to be about [TS]

00:08:26 ◼   ► Max but whatever but I think it's worth [TS]

00:08:28 ◼   ► talking about because this presentation [TS]

00:08:31 ◼   ► kind of show that Apple is still [TS]

00:08:32 ◼   ► chipping away at apple TV making steady [TS]

00:08:36 ◼   ► progress but on the other hand I think [TS]

00:08:37 ◼   ► it also highlighted all the ways that [TS]

00:08:39 ◼   ► they're behind and I had a couple of [TS]

00:08:41 ◼   ► thoughts in my head while watching this [TS]

00:08:43 ◼   ► one was that everything they were [TS]

00:08:45 ◼   ► showing you like the unified interface [TS]

00:08:48 ◼   ► TV can be in place to watch all your [TS]

00:08:50 ◼   ► stuff [TS]

00:08:51 ◼   ► easier than going to find like what [TS]

00:08:53 ◼   ► Apple's I watching that thing in or [TS]

00:08:54 ◼   ► whatever you know having a unified TV [TS]

00:08:56 ◼   ► thing keeps track of what you're [TS]

00:08:57 ◼   ► watching him if you're using another apt [TS]

00:08:58 ◼   ► to watch it trying to bring everything [TS]

00:09:00 ◼   ► together like their goal of you know I [TS]

00:09:03 ◼   ► forget what the words are all try to [TS]

00:09:05 ◼   ► scrub to the video here for like a [TS]

00:09:06 ◼   ► unified TV experience or whatever you [TS]

00:09:09 ◼   ► can't always it unified TV experience [TS]

00:09:11 ◼   ► there you go you can't actually deliver [TS]

00:09:14 ◼   ► on that until you hit some critical mass [TS]

00:09:17 ◼   ► of content and it's debatable what that [TS]

00:09:20 ◼   ► critical mass of content is but [TS]

00:09:21 ◼   ► obviously we would agree that you just [TS]

00:09:23 ◼   ► had HBO and it's never gonna be unified [TS]

00:09:26 ◼   ► interface or you didn't have some of the [TS]

00:09:28 ◼   ► major sports it wouldn't be unified [TS]

00:09:29 ◼   ► interface but like I'm not quite sure [TS]

00:09:31 ◼   ► what that is but I think Apple Apple TV [TS]

00:09:33 ◼   ► does not yet have a critical mass of [TS]

00:09:36 ◼   ► content and you may sit as dude based [TS]

00:09:39 ◼   ► solely on netflix not participating in [TS]

00:09:41 ◼   ► this that is enough at this point to say [TS]

00:09:43 ◼   ► no because people want their next week's [TS]

00:09:45 ◼   ► they have exclusive content people like [TS]

00:09:48 ◼   ► it if that's not part of the experience [TS]

00:09:50 ◼   ► so much for unified it's already [TS]

00:09:51 ◼   ► bifurcated as just gonna split or even [TS]

00:09:53 ◼   ► more for things like local sports that [TS]

00:09:54 ◼   ► you can get so the gold unified [TS]

00:09:57 ◼   ► experience is fine but as discussed many [TS]

00:09:59 ◼   ► many times in the past if you're not [TS]

00:10:01 ◼   ► going to do the omniverse box thing you [TS]

00:10:03 ◼   ► can never present a unified interface [TS]

00:10:05 ◼   ► unless you literally contain all the [TS]

00:10:08 ◼   ► contents are also watching TV and there [TS]

00:10:11 ◼   ► I don't think they're close to that for [TS]

00:10:12 ◼   ► most people because it's always going to [TS]

00:10:14 ◼   ► be something that's not in apple TV or [TS]

00:10:17 ◼   ► not in the TV app and apple TV for most [TS]

00:10:20 ◼   ► people [TS]

00:10:20 ◼   ► few people who only watch things that [TS]

00:10:22 ◼   ► are in their fine but like if that's [TS]

00:10:23 ◼   ► their goal they need to work on the [TS]

00:10:26 ◼   ► business side of this to figure out if [TS]

00:10:29 ◼   ► we had these content providers we can [TS]

00:10:32 ◼   ► get you know we will cover eighty [TS]

00:10:33 ◼   ► percent of the of the viewing public [TS]

00:10:34 ◼   ► needs or whatever and I'm sure the [TS]

00:10:36 ◼   ► changes from country to country and [TS]

00:10:37 ◼   ► region to region but there I don't think [TS]

00:10:39 ◼   ► they're closed now so that's depressing [TS]

00:37:51 ◼   ► say for UK see you looking at these [TS]

00:37:53 ◼   ► today and feeling bad you don't have one [TS]

00:37:55 ◼   ► it's the kind of thing where if you're [TS]

00:37:56 ◼   ► buying a new laptop if you were if you [TS]

00:37:59 ◼   ► were buying one anyway then I think you [TS]

00:38:01 ◼   ► should consider the touch bar as an [TS]

00:38:04 ◼   ► important thing to have you know [TS]

00:38:06 ◼   ► probably and all this should be preface [TS]

00:38:08 ◼   ► by saying that none of the three of us [TS]

00:38:10 ◼   ► were at the event [TS]

00:38:11 ◼   ► none of the three of us have review [TS]

00:38:22 ◼   ► these and we know more about them and [TS]

00:38:24 ◼   ► how they work in reality but i would say [TS]

00:38:26 ◼   ► probably that if you're buying today or [TS]

00:38:29 ◼   ► if you recently bought something you [TS]

00:38:30 ◼   ► don't want to buy another thing you [TS]

00:38:32 ◼   ► don't really have to feel bad yet that [TS]

00:38:34 ◼   ► you don't have this touch bar because [TS]

00:38:35 ◼   ► it's gonna be awhile before apps can [TS]

00:38:38 ◼   ► assume that a lot of people have it and [TS]

00:38:39 ◼   ► it's gonna be awhile before i have to [TS]

00:38:40 ◼   ► take advantage of it and we still don't [TS]

00:38:42 ◼   ► know how much of a must-have thing it [TS]

00:38:46 ◼   ► will be in practice until the things [TS]

00:38:47 ◼   ► wrapped for a while and we can kind of [TS]

00:38:49 ◼   ► look more objectively after its kind [TS]

00:38:50 ◼   ► after the cool has kind of rubbed off [TS]

00:38:51 ◼   ► and weave and we will use them ourselves [TS]

00:38:53 ◼   ► we know people who use them [TS]

00:38:55 ◼   ► you've gotten like some long-term [TS]

00:38:56 ◼   ► opinions from ourselves or others about [TS]

00:38:58 ◼   ► like how useful is actually in practice [TS]

00:39:00 ◼   ► so for now you don't need to feel that [TS]

00:39:02 ◼   ► you should feel bad [TS]

00:39:04 ◼   ► not because you don't touch bar but [TS]

00:39:06 ◼   ► because you don't have a macbook pro [TS]

00:39:09 ◼   ► with like modern internals its way [TS]

00:39:11 ◼   ► faster than one you have now that bad [TS]

00:39:13 ◼   ► feeling that bad feeling remains so [TS]

00:39:15 ◼   ► question for both of you and I'll start [TS]

00:39:18 ◼   ► with Marco do you think that a keyboard [TS]

00:39:21 ◼   ► with a touch bar will ever exist for a [TS]

00:39:25 ◼   ► desktop mac or do you think it will [TS]

00:39:27 ◼   ► always always always be four laptops and [TS]

00:39:31 ◼   ► if yes if you think it will one day [TS]

00:39:33 ◼   ► exist for desktop Mac would apple just [TS]

00:39:36 ◼   ► completely yo go bananas and make it [TS]

00:39:39 ◼   ► wired only or do you think you would be [TS]

00:39:40 ◼   ► just basically a revision of the smart [TS]

00:39:42 ◼   ► keyboard as it is today [TS]

00:39:44 ◼   ► I honestly don't know I I'm leaning [TS]

00:39:47 ◼   ► towards no [TS]

00:39:49 ◼   ► and no one's gonna like the reason why [TS]

00:39:51 ◼   ► but i'm leaning towards no and y know it [TS]

00:39:53 ◼   ► I know the reason you probably do we all [TS]

00:39:56 ◼   ► know the reason I'm leaning towards no [TS]

00:39:58 ◼   ► because I you know a guy I think putting [TS]

00:40:02 ◼   ► the touch bar as it exists today into [TS]

00:40:04 ◼   ► something the size and price of the [TS]

00:40:07 ◼   ► magic keyboard i think will be very [TS]

00:40:09 ◼   ► challenging and if there's probably a [TS]

00:40:11 ◼   ► lot of constraints there many of which [TS]

00:40:13 ◼   ► are self-imposed by Apple but I [TS]

00:40:15 ◼   ► basically don't like I don't see them [TS]

00:40:17 ◼   ► want to make their keyboard bigger I [TS]

00:40:20 ◼   ► don't see the market having much [TS]

00:40:21 ◼   ► tolerance for them making their keyboard [TS]

00:40:23 ◼   ► more expensive is already pretty [TS]

00:40:24 ◼   ► expensive and i don't really see them [TS]

00:40:26 ◼   ► you know wanting to have multiple models [TS]

00:40:29 ◼   ► of keyboard that they sell I mean they [TS]

00:40:30 ◼   ► can barely self-referrals at all anymore [TS]

00:40:32 ◼   ► so you know I don't see that happening [TS]

00:40:34 ◼   ► but ultimately the biggest reason why I [TS]

00:40:37 ◼   ► don't honestly see this happening even [TS]

00:40:39 ◼   ► if they get over the technical stuff [TS]

00:40:41 ◼   ► here comes is that I just don't think [TS]

00:40:43 ◼   ► Apple gives a damn about desktops [TS]

00:40:45 ◼   ► anymore and that's not to say that [TS]

00:40:46 ◼   ► they're never gonna make one again but i [TS]

00:40:48 ◼   ► but I just think the focus [TS]

00:40:50 ◼   ► I mean look you can barely get Tim Cook [TS]

00:40:53 ◼   ► to pretend to care about the mac at all [TS]

00:40:56 ◼   ► allmax you know there's a reason why Tim [TS]

00:40:59 ◼   ► didn't say a lot today about the mac you [TS]

00:41:01 ◼   ► know that was delegated to fill in Craig [TS]

00:41:04 ◼   ► because they I'm pretty sure care deeply [TS]

00:41:06 ◼   ► about the mac like they seem like [TS]

00:41:08 ◼   ► they're really like mac champions inside [TS]

00:41:10 ◼   ► the company at a very high level but Tim [TS]

00:41:13 ◼   ► I don't think is I don't think Tim cares [TS]

00:41:15 ◼   ► I don't think he even hide that very [TS]

00:41:17 ◼   ► well I don't think he even honestly [TS]

00:41:19 ◼   ► tries I don't think Tim cares and so as [TS]

00:41:23 ◼   ► long as the company is led by Tim I [TS]

00:41:26 ◼   ► don't see the max making substantial [TS]

00:41:28 ◼   ► advances and what I see instead is what [TS]

00:41:33 ◼   ► we what we see today which is they're [TS]

00:41:36 ◼   ► going to keep doing what we know what [TS]

00:41:37 ◼   ► they what they can do to move things [TS]

00:41:40 ◼   ► along [TS]

00:41:41 ◼   ► occasionally to be thinner lighter [TS]

00:41:43 ◼   ► better faster right that's what they do [TS]

00:41:45 ◼   ► but i don't see a time under tim cook's [TS]

00:41:48 ◼   ► rule which is probably going to be long [TS]

00:41:51 ◼   ► i don't see a time of this happening [TS]

00:41:54 ◼   ► here where team is going to decide that [TS]

00:41:58 ◼   ► the mac really needs a lot of effort put [TS]

00:42:00 ◼   ► into it and it needs like [TS]

00:42:02 ◼   ► no major resources and major [TS]

00:42:03 ◼   ► prioritization I just don't see that [TS]

00:42:05 ◼   ► happening so I don't think they're going [TS]

00:42:08 ◼   ► to put in like the lots of work that it [TS]

00:42:12 ◼   ► would take and possible profit [TS]

00:42:13 ◼   ► cannibalization of other products to [TS]

00:42:16 ◼   ► meaningfully enable this on desktops I [TS]

00:42:19 ◼   ► just don't see it happening [TS]

00:42:21 ◼   ► I wish it would but I just don't let's [TS]

00:42:24 ◼   ► assume for just one moment that you're [TS]

00:42:26 ◼   ► right that Tim either doesn't care about [TS]

00:42:29 ◼   ► the mac or let's even go so far as to [TS]

00:42:31 ◼   ► say he freaking hates the mac i'm not [TS]

00:42:33 ◼   ► saying he hated what I'm what I'm saying [TS]

00:42:35 ◼   ► is I just [TS]

00:42:36 ◼   ► he's obviously not a mac person he died [TS]

00:42:39 ◼   ► i'm pretty sure he has said on the [TS]

00:42:41 ◼   ► record multiple times that he does his [TS]

00:42:42 ◼   ► work on ipads anyway so I i basically I [TS]

00:42:45 ◼   ► don't think he uses macs very often if [TS]

00:42:46 ◼   ► at all and and I think he he is very [TS]

00:42:49 ◼   ► much profit focused and and he looks at [TS]

00:42:52 ◼   ► where Apple can make the most profit and [TS]

00:42:54 ◼   ► divert resources there and things that [TS]

00:42:56 ◼   ► that make still good profit but just [TS]

00:42:59 ◼   ► less are you know kind of out of his his [TS]

00:43:02 ◼   ► field of vision i think most of the time [TS]

00:43:04 ◼   ► so basically I just don't think Tim [TS]

00:43:06 ◼   ► gives a lot of thought to the mac and i [TS]

00:43:08 ◼   ► don't think it's a priority for him [TS]

00:43:10 ◼   ► alright so let's assume that's true and [TS]

00:43:11 ◼   ► you know it in any degree of of [TS]

00:43:14 ◼   ► aggressiveness he hates the mac or maybe [TS]

00:43:16 ◼   ► just doesn't really care [TS]

00:43:17 ◼   ► maybe it's just another line item like [TS]

00:43:18 ◼   ► you said let's assume any one of those [TS]

00:43:20 ◼   ► is true he's a pretty smart man from [TS]

00:43:24 ◼   ► everything we can tell [TS]

00:43:25 ◼   ► don't you think he would trust in in his [TS]

00:43:29 ◼   ► lieutenants and those who do care for [TS]

00:43:31 ◼   ► the mac to carry it forward like I I [TS]
