30% Revenue decline on Mac YoY
What a drop! M1 success and exodus out of butterfly keyboard probably pumped those numbers last year, but I guess we know the trend of growth there is on shaky ground.
Also, i wonder how much of that are companies not needing to buy new hires new laptops
- ghaff 4y agoI didn't upgrade to Apple Silicon right away but I did last year ago with gear going out of OS upgrade support last fall. I imagine a lot of people decided that Apple Silicon was a good upgrade point and I can't see upgrading again for a while unless I replace my iMac with a new mini.

- breck 4y agoI bought many M1s, but haven't bought any M2s yet because the M1 is so great. I am saving the M2 purchase for when it like rains for 2 weeks straight or something.
