Our sister site just released a new book with Insight Editions called Year of the Ring. It’s an incredibly fun (and totally comprehensive) look at the history of the franchise and its fanbase.

You might have heard that it’s 2004 Week on The Verge. There are lots of awesome, super nostalgic stories that you absolutely need to go check out right now.

In addition to our detailed review, The Verge video team brought in Vox Media employees from different areas of the company to experience the Apple Vision Pro for the very first time.

Tim Cook shared a fun animation celebrating the 40th anniversary of the original Macintosh, and hidden amongst the colorful array of products and iconography is none other than Clarus, a lesser-known piece of Mac history otherwise referred to as the “dogcow.”
