The crew welcome back Malcolm Owen from the good ship AppleInsider onboard to cover for Cap'n Mike, who has taken our new shuttlecraft -- nicknamed the SS Poor WiFi Experience -- to one of the most magical places on Earth for a rare family sabbatical. Naturally, Apple chooses this opportunity to unleash the long-rumored 16-inch MacBook Pro, announce an actual shipping month window for the new Mac Pro and XDR Display, and relay the news that the Enterprise Assimilation project is complete -- 100 percent of the Fortune 500 companies now use at least some Apple products.
There's also a fair spate of bad news, from an iPhone scam to a feud with Chromebook to concern about Apple's News+ service, and of course Facebook is once again embroiled in scandal, "bugs" that have been "fixed," and other really bad ideas. All this plus the heartwarming story of a boy who used Apple tech to discover his indoor voice (no, we're not talking about Cap'n Charles), and some new competition in the server-chip market. All this and more, cadets, so put on your astro-whitegloves and let's get the kettle for Malcolm and William on next week's show -- it's gonna get all British up in this joint!
