I wouldn't say it's unfortunate. The majority of my (and many peoples') personal computing is done entirely on an iPhone and therefore improvement upon it, either incremental or innovative or otherwise, is always welcome.
- khedoros1 10y agoWell, and the majority of my (and many peoples') personal computing is done on something other than a phone. It's unfortunate when people get left behind by a company they like. I think Apple's got the ability to go two directions at once. Giving some love to non-iPhone hardware doesn't mean that they'd have to slack off on the iPhone itself. In the past, Apple's strength has been their cohesive ecosystem. They seem like they're continually dropping parts of it while letting other parts wither.

Sure, the market size smaller, but with these tools the world stops working. For many of us, Apple computers represent the best tool for our jobs. Sure, we can use Linux or even Windows if forced to, but it will mean a less efficient and enjoyable working experience.
