Nothing "subtle" about the attack. The butterfly keyboard is a very obvious and outright failure.
This failure resulted in a support program that covered the entire output of the Apple MacBook Pro product line for half a decade.
Nothing subtle about that at all.
- ratww 4y agoI wonder if we're being too quick to blame him for the Butterfly keyboard. Sure it was his design, but there were engineering issue. Was Ive powerful enough to overrule Tim Cook and everyone else and keep a faulty keyboard for that long? So far I've only seen a lot of speculation from tech websites, but maybe someone has some proper source, I might be totally wrong. It could also be a widespread cultural issue where Apple is unable to admit fault. Sure, Apple removed the butterfly after he left, but they're still quite stubborn about not putting USB-C on iPhones, for example.
