It's sad because when I first switched to Apple (~2008) I was extremely impressed by small things like the iPhone earphone remote 100% working when plugged into a Mac. It was a huge change from PC-land, where getting anything working was a challenge. Apple are either in a transitionary phase (everything to USB-C and 5K screens!), or really have lost the plot. I guess we'll know in a year. MacBook Air: it was nice knowing ye MacBook 2015: Someone took "one port to rule them all" a bit too literally. This one could be good in a few years, the MacBook Air was an underpowered POS from 2008-2012 Mac Mini: Quad core option removed, mainly abandoned. I guess they decided laptops are good enough for "baby's first Mac". iMac: fairly worthless form factor upgrade; it looks exactly the same from the side you will actually look at it from. No updates forthcoming for some reason that only Apple knows. Mac Pro: Abandoned then updated with a lot of fanfare then abandoned again (WTF?) /E I forgot about monitors. Apple went from having a nice selection of decent monitors to having one and now none. It's not like they have forgotten how to make a nice screen, just how to put them in a case with a (whatever plug Apple is using now) cable on it.
