This video by MKBHD is a fascinating dive into how Apple markets its products without using “common” buzzwords.

As a former Apple employee, I can safely say we find it annoying as well. 😏

Drove out to Francis Ford Coppola Winery today. I was really excited, but came out disappointed. I was really expecting more from the “museum”.

However, it did allow for a stop in Downtown Healdsburg, where one of my favorite butcher shops in all of CA resides, Journeyman Meat Co.

Plus, they have these awesome paintings in the bathroom…

Initial Thoughts on Vision Pro

Here are some of my thoughts on the new Apple Vision Pro

  • $3499. Yikes. However, I think I can get over that with the rest of my points…
  • This is an amazing piece of technology. What they packed in there is just insane.
  • It essentially eliminated the need for pretty much every tech-driven device in your house.
  • You no longer need a TV, sound system, or a computer.
  • Obviously, I am writing this *right after* the Keynote, so I don’t know what connectivity looks like, so there could be more on this list.
  • Looking at it from an enterprise perspective, the $3499 price tag is roughly in the mid-point of what companies spend on new hire equipment and setup. Just give them one of these, and they’re set (even for remote work).
  • All the tech that Apple has been working on for, at least, the past 5-7 years was to get to this product. It’s quite remarkable.

That’s all for now. I’m sure I’ll have more thoughts as I watch videos from the demo area, and subsequent follow-up videos from my favorite tech peeps.
