No comments about Apple event yesterday?

Summary:
The Apple TV has a new remote. The insides are a little better, but you probably won’t notice a difference
iMac updated to m1. Looks updated- now looks like an enlarged iPad on a stand. It’s colorful, too.
iPads updated. You can get an m1 iPad now. So desktop/laptop/tablet architecture is shared across the spectrum. Performance is generally good. One bit of personal opinion: I keep getting “out of usable memory” issues on an 8gb MacBook Air rubbing relatively “normal” stuff (about 6 safari tabs, the Sonos application, a Symantec VIP token, basically stock startup otherwise). I’ve seen about two complaints online about this. Non-optimized apps are usually to blame. Apple’s solution to the one guy who wrote about his experience was “run fewer tabs or buy a computer with more RAM.” It seems to happen to me when I have left tabs up overnight and one specific EHR app seems to have a memory leak, but I feel it’s important to mention that a concern actually exists with the chips, however small it may be. I have never had a problem running anything with basic closing/restarting of programs, but this is the second non-all-rainbows-and-sunshine report I’ve seen on them (the other being the super-high ssd utilization rate with Chrome with unknown consequences long-term)
You can get a Tile-like device from Apple. Battery lasts a year and is user-replaceable.
Your iPhone can be purple now.

iMac looks pretty cool. Will probably get one at work eventually. Weird they don't have black/space gray to start, but I assume that'll come and it's some typical misguided attempt to get people who want a black computer to spend 5x as much on a Pro.

Yeah, there was nothing eventful about it. More of the same..but slightly different.
