Jason Snell, on the “Peek Performance” Apple event next week:
At least we only have a few days to wait to find out. But, as silly and dad-jokey as “peek performance” is as a concept, I have to admit that it’s increased my anticipation for the event. So… mission accomplished, I suppose. We’ll see if next week’s event can deliver on that slogan’s promise.
Like Snell, I don’t want to waste too much time trying to guess what the event name means, but performance makes me think we’re getting the larger iMac (“iMac Pro”?). As for peek, I have no idea — I doubt there’s any major camera-related news and it feels even more doubtful that Apple’s rumored VR headset is getting announced now, so I’ll just go with “sometimes a pun is just a pun”. Update: For peek — maybe new standalone displays? Or is that just wishful thinking?
