- coldtea 8y agoFirst, new OS releases are in WWDC in June. Not on random days. Second, OS optimizations of the kind that yield such a big speedup would have applied to the whole Mac range, it makes no sense how they'd be only applicable to iMacs which run more or less the same hardware. Third, the very first words of the PR is: "Cupertino, California — Apple today updated its iMac line with up to 8-core Intel 9th-generation processors for the first time and powerful Vega graphics options, delivering dramatic increases in both compute and graphics performance. "
- simonh 8y agoBecause it mentions the specific hardware line in the title and doesn't mention the OS at all. If it was a software boost, it's hard to see why it would only apply to the iMac line specifically and not say MacBook Pros or Mac Minis as well.
