Best Buy and Apple team up for repairs
When I lived in Montana, I was about six hours away from an Apple Store. Still, today, I am an hour away from one. How close is the nearest Best Buy? 10 minutes. That's why I love this news.

Y'all remember the Game Boy? It is unbelievable that this thing is 30 years old today. I can't remember at what age I got my Nintendo Game Boy but this was my introduction to the video game world.

Apple Card
In an unusual services-only event from Apple, the thing that interested me the most was the Apple Card. Apple Card is Apple's entry into the financial space with their very own credit card. Partnering with Goldman Sachs, Apple is making their credit card an easy way to understand how credit works. Credit cards can be… Continue reading Apple Card
