Ubiquiti’s new UniFi AirWire (U-AirWire) is both exciting and disappointing. On the one hand, it’s the first Wi-Fi 7 USB “adapter” with super-fast Wi-Fi uplink thanks to support for STR MLO. On the other hand, it’s impractical to use due to the bulky design, high power requirements, and, most significantly, the fact that it only works within the UniFi ecosystem. Here’s the bottom line: If you already have a robust UniFi Wi-Fi 7 network and now really want to connect a computer via top wireless speed—and I mean that to be a big if— the AirWire is the media bridge…

Xbox’s new chief exec, Asha Sharma, has only been in charge for a few months but things already seem like they might be changing for the better. Or at the very least, they might be getting cheaper. The Verge reported that the new Xbox CEO wrote a memo to employees addressing the current pricing of the Game Pass subscription service.”Game Pass is central to gaming value on Xbox. It’s also clear that the current model isn’t the final one,” Sharma allegedly said. “Short term, Game Pass has become too expensive for players, so we need a better value equation. Long…

The upcoming billing cycle is about to get more expensive for long-term AT&T wireless phone plan customers. While the carrier is shifting its focus to newer “2.0” service tiers, those holding onto older unlimited contracts are being hit with a mandatory monthly surcharge starting this month. The logic behind the price jump feels inconsistent, as the specific dollar amount varies wildly across different generations of retired plans.On a support page that went live when it announced its revamped “2.0” unlimited phone plans, the carrier revealed that the prices of its “retired” unlimited wireless plans — the ones customers who haven’t upgraded are still using –…

For decades, the ERP “playbook” was a familiar exercise in endurance: organizations would mobilize an army of consultants, brace for years of disruption, and spend millions on a monolithic system designed to last a decade.Success was binary, the system either switched on, or it didn’t, while adoption and agility remained secondary concerns. But as we enter the AI era, this traditional model has reached a breaking point.Conrad TroySocial Links NavigationThe shift we are seeing is not just about ‘faster’ software; it is a fundamental disruption of how ERP is governed, staffed and funded. To capture the full benefit of AI…

The MacBook Neo might only have a mobile-class A18 Pro chip on the inside, but it offers far more performance than you’d expect from a $599 laptop. At that price point, it’s incredibly impressive, and is going some way to redefining what we can expect from the best budget laptops in 2026.Yet that doesn’t mean it’s perfect, and there are plenty of tasks that the MacBook Neo struggles with. Still, you don’t have to settle for that — if you want to tune up your Apple laptop and eke more performance out of its chip, you’ve got lots of avenues…
