Nope but they mentioned it for iOS so that's slightly concerning. The beta will be out later today so I guess we'll find out through NDA leaks.

Dark mode will only work on the highest levels of GPU hardware.

Wrong presentation, isn't it? I lost track of what they're doing these days but the hardware stuff is usually in a Q4 presentation.

Every once in a while they will announce hardware at WWDC, but it's pretty rare.

****Rumour Only******

Macworld UK is speculating that only Macs that can support Metal will be included for the Mojave update which would mean:

iMac models from 2012 or later
MacBook models from 2015 or later
MacBook Pro models from 2012 or later
MacBook Air models from 2012 or later
Mac mini models from 2012 or later
Mac Pro models from late 2013

****Speculation – Please remain calm ****

We won't be happy until every presentation is a hardware presentation. And honestly they're so overdue they could announce new hardware every conference for the next three years and we'd still be pent up and frustrated.

Metal Support requirement seems to be confirmed by Apple.

https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2018/06/apple-introduces-macos-mojave/

E; the important bit:

Availability
The developer preview of macOS Mojave is available to Apple Developer Program members at developer.apple.com starting today, and a public beta program will be available to Mac users in late June at beta.apple.com. macOS Mojave will be available this fall as a free software update for Macs introduced in mid-2012 or later, plus 2010 and 2012 Mac Pro models with recommended Metal-capable graphics cards. Some features may not be available in all regions or languages.

So like first and second generation rMBPs will be good but might not get dark mode right? I’m not sure if I’m reading this right.

I have the first gen Retina screen MacBook. It's listed as a Mid-2012 in the About This Computer menu, so it's the minimum specs now.

Just installed iOS12, music.app is the exact same as the iOS11 one. Opens way faster though.

drat it’s been a good run little machine.

Admittedly I don’t use it as much now that I got my new 15 but I still love the drat thing.

Maybe I’ll install the beta on it. How much of a pain in the rear end is that really? I don’t care if poo poo breaks I just use it for discord and to poo poo post.

So if I've never used Animoji and I don't use Safari (I'm all in on Chrome), it's basically just notifications and workflow?

I gotta watch a video of these things to know how they work because I can't tell from text.

IMO you should really use Safari. I know you are all in with chrome but they are making some good improvements with Safari.
