<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Let the Apple Car rumors continue to roll. Apple has been granted a patent (number 10,309,132) for a “passenger vehicle and door structure.”</p>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Great minds think alike. In a <a href="https://appleworld.dreamhosters.com/blog/2019/6/4/where-are-the-apple-displays-for-the-rest-of-us" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">blog post today,</a> I asked, “Where are the Apple displays for the rest of us?” Now there’s a new petition asking Apple to “make an affordable Mac external display.”</p>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">I was really hoping for a new Apple display that could be used with Apple’s Mac laptops and the 2018 Mac mini would debut at the Worldwide Developer Conference. It didn’t.</p>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Apple hit it out of the park at yesterday’s Worldwide Developer Conference keynote. macOS 10.15? Check. iOS 13? Check. tvOS 13? Check. watchOS 6? Check. New Mac Pro and new Apple display? Check.</p>

To the delight of pro users, Apple introduced the all-new <a href="https://www.apple.com/mac-pro/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Mac Pro</a>, a completely redesigned workstation for pros at today’s Worldwide Developer Conference. It also unveiled the <a href="https://www.apple.com/pro-display-xdr/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Apple Pro Display XDR</a>, which I have to admit is pricier than I anticipated.</p>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">At today’s Worldwide Developer Conference keynote, Apple gave us a sneak peak at the upcoming <a href="https://www.apple.com/macos/catalina-preview/">macOS Catalina</a>, the latest version of its desktop operating system. The upgrade will replace iTunes with Apple Music, Apple Podcasts, and Apple TV apps.</p>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Apple previewed <a href="https://www.apple.com/ios/ios-13-preview/">iOS 13</a> at today’s Worldwide Developer Conference keynote. The operating system update introduces a new look with Dark Mode and new ways to browse and edit photos, sign in to apps and websites, and navigate the world with an all-new map. </p>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">During today’s Worldwide Developer Conference keynote, Apple previewed iPadOS, an operating system with a new name to recognize the distinctive experience of the iPad. It builds on the same foundation as iOS, adding new capabilities and features specific to the large display and versatility of the tablet.</p>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Apple previewed watchOS 6 during the Worldwide Developer Conference keynote today. It empowers Apple Watch users to better manage their health and fitness, and gives access to dynamic new watch faces and the App Store directly on Apple Watch, according to Jeff Williams, Apple’s chief operating officer. </p>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">At today’s Worldwide Developer Conference, Apple previewed tvOS 13, the operating system for its Apple TV 4K set-top box. The latest version gains an immersive new Home screen; multi-user support for customers to access their own TV shows, movies, music and recommendations; support for Apple Arcade; expanded game controller support; and new 4K HDR screen savers filmed under the sea.</p>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">European Union (EU) regulators will decide what steps to take regarding Spotify’s complaint about Apple once they get a response from the iPhone maker, Europe’s antitrust chief says.</p>

<p class="" style="white-space:pre-wrap;">Samsung continues a streak of dominating all brands in the overall reliability of its computers on the market with Lenovo coming in second and Apple devices dropping in reliability among consumers in the 2019 <a href="https://www.rescuecom.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">RESCUECOM Computer Liability Report</a>.</p>
