I tried out the privacy download feature (here: privacy.apple.com/account), it says it'll take 7 days. I wonder how automated this process is.

That was a strange article. She basically said iMessage was a lot better than the standard text messaging on Android, though gave some alternates that have added some to all of the extra features. She has had some problems getting everything over, but it makes sense that if you have multiple devices set up to use iMessage, and you don't turn it off everywhere, that some things are going to still be sent in the iMessage arena. I'm sure it's frustrating to have things sent in the "other" ecosystem when you're switching over. But it makes sense, and isn't any different if you switch to an app that uses a whole different ecosystem. (previously it was free to read via the link from yahoo, but now is behind the paywall. In short, you're not missing much, though I don't think I had ever read stats where more people wanted to stay with an Android than iOS. Maybe most of the time it's per vendor, but while it seems wrong it will be important to keep an eye on (it said 89% retention with iPhone, vs 92% with Android, from a recent poll....though a lot would depend on that wording, and if it was future looking or based on recent purchases, and then timeframe, location, etc)

www.cnbc.com/2018/10/18/apple-expected-to-announce-new-ipads-and-macs-on-oct-30.htmlI'm personally waiting for an upgraded Mac Mini. I can only talk from the developer perspective, but you see more and more devs walking around with Mac laptops, it's far more pleasant than using Windows PCs. Lots of us wanna pick up a cheaper Mac desktop (we care about processor speed, cache, and memory) and don't necessarily wanna pay for a high-powered laptop nor something "magical" (e.g. iMac). Yeah, I know we are a niche community, but still...

I can’t remember the last time someone other than Brian White has the highest PT on the street. Seems like a good sign to me.
