Hello and that was the much requested return of our theme.

The Apple Insider Podcast and that was the much requested return of our theme.

Sample from an earlier episode, recreated in Logic Pro, aren't Max? Great.

This week's episode is brought to you by a notion, more about that later.

Joining me is someone who, well for reasons, passing understanding, really, does not share my

total and correct love of the Mac, but still is doubtlessly in as good a minute as I am because

we are ever closer to the Apple Vision Pro.

Where's Hilliard, can you see a Vision Pro in your future?

Well, turns out the stars have a line.

I know I've talked about how I've been hedging closer to being

financially capable and it turns out I'm good to go. So I will be pre-ordering one on

January 19th and hopefully picking it up on February 2nd.

Does that mean, what was it last time you said you'd managed to get a whole $11 in savings or interest or something?

Are you putting that?

Yeah, it played no part in this. They did increase our percentage rate by a whole

another tenth of a percent, so that's helping for the next Vision Pro. If I start saving now by 2027 when it releases I will have enough.

Now I'm just thinking I'm excited about this but I physically can't buy one. I'm in the UK so I mean it's very expensive it's actually beyond my reach

of the moment but even if I weren't it isn't coming here yet so why am I so excited about it? What's convinced you to go the extra mile and spend the cash?

Well, it's, first of all, part of my job, I feel like. As far as things go, I just feel like I want to be part of this

is Apple's first step into a new product category since I've been working at Apple Insider, there hasn't been anything like it in more than a decade.

I mean the Apple watch doesn't really count.

It's an accessory to the iPhone.
