Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
As we enter the Christmas news slowdown, we can all look forward to 2013 which, with expectations of new Macs, next-gen iPad, next-gen iPhon, and rumors of an Apple television and more, promises to be a very eventful year!
We’ll continue to post as time, disparate Internet connections, and the news permits.
Thank you for visiting MacDailyNews throughout the year and for making MDN a part of your day. We really appreciate it!
Merry Christmas and happy holidays, everyone, and thanks to MDN for covering Apple so well all year, too!
Yes, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, MacDailyNews staff and readers!
ang pasko ay sumapit, tayo ay mangagsi-awit…
Merry Christmas everyone. May the Love of GOd fill all of our hearts.
merry christmas!
Merry iChristmas!
Thank you for writing Christmas and not Xmas or any other stupid shit.
Thanks for putting Christ and s-it in the same sentence – NOT.
No wonder we’re stumbling.
MDN could have written “Merry Christmas* and Happy Holidays from MacDailyNews!”
* Mentioning “Christmas” here is just an acknowledgement that Christmas is commonly observed as both a secular and nonsecular holiday in the English-speaking world. So… I sorta thought I’d throw that one out there.
I’m rather sorry about the “English-speaking” bit (not to offend those who don’t speak it), but this article is written in English (as it is the only language in which I am fluent) and therefore its readership tends to be far and wide English speaking as either a first or second language.
The thoughts and opinions expressed within this communication are not intended to be offensive to any particular minority group (based on race, religion, ethnicity, country of origin, gender, gender identification, handicap, occupation, meat-eating/vegetable-eating practices, and hobbies—even hunting). Note too that parenthetically mentioning “even hunting” in the preceding sentence was not intended to signal any disapproval of the sport; the author does not wish to disparage the legal, safe, and most humane-possible methods of hunting. This preceding statement should not however, be construed as an endorsement of the sport; the author values all the biodiversity of earth and no animal should suffer at the hand of a human. However, that preceding sentence should not be construed that the author is indifferent to the plight of workers displaced by environmental issues; the author is mindful of the plight of timber workers v.s. the plight of spotted owls. The preceding sentence should not be construed that the author thinks there is only one group of workers who have been financially harmed by environmental issues; there are others and not mentioning these others by name should not be construed as suggesting they are any less important than another. The author wishes to ensure all who review this communication that he values diversity and has the utmost respect for the law, government officials, the institutions of the United States, and the wide variety of social customs and diversity of its peoples. This statement should not however, be construed as being intolerant of others who have contrary or differing values or who might hold the U.S. in disdain. The author embraces the wholesome notion that one person or group’s values are no less meritorious or valid than another’s, and the author does not wish to suggest that by stating an admiration for America and the U.S. Government, that this ought to be construed as deprecating the many other fine systems of government throughout the world and the social practices of its peoples. Notwithstanding that the author wrote the word “he” three sentences ago, (the author happens to be male by birth) this should not be construed as diminishing in any way, the existence of the word “she” nor does it signal that the author is adverse to the use of the gender-neutral “he/she” where appropriate. Furthermore, the words “he” and “she” should not be construed as being exclusionary or diminishing to the transgendered. This paragraph was not intended to be understood by blondes.
Loved it!
Merry Christmas from the Great White North and have prosperous New Year! Thank MDN for doing a great job covering all the Apple news good or bad in 2012.
Merry Christmas to MDN and all the many posters!
Thanks for another year of great reporting on Apple related issues
And wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
The main reason Santa is so jolly is because he knows where all the bad girls live.

Please update to 4″ screen MdN!
Merry Christmas to the fine folks at MDN and the many people who post here. May you all have a wonderful day with your loved ones.
Merry Christmas and hopefully you all get an iPad in your stocking if you were good and a ‘Surface’ if you were bad.
I don’t know of anyone so evil that they deserve a Surface…
Surface—the lump of coal for the 21st century
I can almost hear the howls of disappointment from kids all over the world who are opening presents and finding non-Apple products.
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year to All! May everyone have a happy and safe holiday celebration with family and friends. See you all in the new year!
Merry Christmas / Happy Holidays and Happy New Year MDN and to your readers! Thanks for keeping us informed and entertained.
Seasons Greetings MDN, a job well done in 2012. Thank You!
Merry Christmas guys … You are are a part of my everyday!!!
Merry Christmas fellow Apple fans and thank you MDN for always making my day a little more interesting.
с Рождеством Христовым!

Merry Christmas to all including windows and android uses.
I’ve been a good boy and Santa has brought me a new iMac 27″ i7! It is by far the best computer I’ve ever used. Not only that, it is the best consumer product in my house.
To you windows switchers, don’t worry- within 16 minutes of the iMac’s arrival in my house I was on the net with Opera browser configured with old bookmarks and email, my pirinter was automatically connected to, and my NAS harddrive logged into. With 52 minutes I had edited an excell spreadsheet with numbers and set it back to my boss. Within 72 minutes the iMac had updated the OS, pages and numbers and moved my iTunes library to the Mac. Within 90 minutes my iPad and iPhone were backed up on the Mac and iCloud and loaded with new songs. Not too bad.
I think by mid January, I’ll have Fusion loaded with either win 7 or xp with the corporate software I need and I’ll abandon the windows pc entirely. Oddly the hardest part of this is going to be able to find, purchase and instal windows xp pro that is STILL required by the corporate software that I use. Foolishness to the max. I’ll get NO help from the idiots at corporate IT. They’ll be surprised when some stupid piece of windows software screws up and they see the desktop through logmein.
Enough ranting, Merry Christmas, thanks to the team at Apple for doing a great job. The little ones are awake time to open even more presents!
Ah, a fellow Opera user. Finally weened myself off of it in the past couple of months.
Ho! Ho! Ho! Meeeeerrrryyyyy Chrrrrismaaas!
Merry Christ Mass & Happy Holy Days to one and all.
