apple has turned into sony but with iphones. if you love your mac, good news, apple will keep selling you the same mac you bought 2 or 3 years ago at the same price you paid back then because why should they ever put work into making new macs when nobody buys them?
uh they are still making $5-6 billion a quarter off of macs, and given the coming slowdown in iphone revenue diversifying their stream is gonna be more important than ever, so

you might want to tell that to tim then, they're still selling the mac pro that came out in 2013 for full price, along side their laptops that haven't been updated since early 2015, also at full price

they were selling a 1920x1080 monitor for $1000 until last month, lmao

apparently Apple disagrees, since they added extra stiffening to the iPhone 6s, instead of designing a better phone.

yes it has. it continuously bends in your pocket and eventually the touch sensor will become disconnected and cause touch aids.

it was 2560x1440, which is reasonable considering reliable external SST 60hz 4k monitors only became a thing recently and require displayport 1.2
