| |  |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |  | | Week in Tech | | | | There and Mac again: Apple anniversary, iOS in cars and Darth Vader's dustbin | | | As The Beatles very nearly sang: it was 30 years ago today that Steve Jobs taught the world to play. The original Apple Macintosh is "the computer that kick-started the PC revolution" - and it's celebrating the beginning of its fourth decade. We'd love to take the new Mac Pro back in time to see what Steve Jobs would have made of it. Instead, we've done the next best thing put it under the microscope ourselves. Apple's most powerful PC combines "stellar" design and "incredible" performance in one unbelievably tiny package, and while it's ridiculously over the top for the average user, "wouldn't you just love one?” Could your next car be Apple-powered? With the imminent release of iOS 7.1 - which will also fix the annoying "white screen of death" - we're seeing more clues about how iOS in the car will look and work. The latest iOS 7.1 screenshots "show iOS 7 looking a lot more like a GPS module than previous incarnations," Marc Chacksfield reports. Last but not least, the year has barely begun and we're already hearing a whole bunch of iPhone 6 rumours: the latest suggests that Apple has decided to make the iPhone 6's screen a significantly larger 4.8 inches. You might recall that the same number was floated before the iPhone 5S turned up, so this might be one of those rumours that works like a stopped clock and comes true eventually. Analysts also predict a 13-inch iPad. Could the Mac Pro and MacBook Pro soon be joined by an iPad Pro? It might be a good idea to start saving up. |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In this week | | | | | | | ■ | Week in Tech: There and Mac again | | | | | | | ■ | Talking points: Bad Nokia, Xbox One, SteamOS is pointless, wireless charging | | | | | | | ■ | Competition: Win!
