October is an important month for Windows users, especially those considering an upgrade to Windows 11 Pro. Microsoft has announced that Windows 11 version 24H2 Home and Pro editions will reach the end of their servicing period on October 13, 2026.
Sometimes, the best desk upgrades are the ones that improve your productivity, not the fastest and most powerful hardware around. If you’re sorely lacking in your workflow, Elgato’s Stream Deck + should be your next purchase. On Amazon, the device is currently listed at $159.99 after an 11 percent discount, and there’s a reason why it’s rated as the #1 best seller in Digital Audio Workstation Controllers.
Macworld TL;DR: The AskAnyModel AI Pro Plan puts more than 50 AI models into one workspace, including GPT, Claude, Gemini, and Grok, as a lifetime subscription for $39.99 (reg. $499).

Macworld TL;DR: Run Windows apps on your Mac with a lifetime Windows 11 Pro license, now $9.97 (reg. $199). Parallels lets you run Windows on a Mac, but you still need a Windows license to install it. Right now, a Microsoft Windows 11 Pro lifetime license is on sale for $9.97 (reg. $199), and you only pay once. Once Windows 11 Pro is running in Parallels, you can open Windows-only apps and games next to your Mac apps.
TL;DR: Windows 11 Pro is only $10 through October 4. Windows 10 is over 10 years old, and it really shows. Windows 11 Home is a solid upgrade, but it has its limitations. That’s why it’s worth it to jump straight to Windows 11 Pro, especially now that it’s only $10 (reg. $199) through October 4. Windows 11 Pro does everything 11 Home can do, with a few useful extras. BitLocker encrypts your entire drive, so files on a lost or stolen laptop are still protected.

Macworld Since iOS 14, there is no longer an option to send photos as attachments.

Qwen3.8-27B is a capable AI model, assuming you have a sufficient combination of VRAM and system RAM. On the M4 Pro MacBook Pro, its 24GB of unified memory can be a limiting factor in prefill speeds when running the AI model. Fortunately, one user hooked up an iPhone 17 Pro Max to the portable Mac through a USB-C port, and by running custom software, he was able to get up to 44 percent prefill performance running the same AI model.
