> Apple Silicon completely upended the personal computer world
How did it upend the personal computer world? Apple's chip developments are an amazing technological achievement, but they don't have anything innovative to put them in. Apple slaps them in grossly thermally limited form factors, where the chips can't operate anywhere close to their capability. It's kind of a silly exercise, in my opinion. At the end of the day, Apple has made the same computers, phones, and tablets for the past 10 years. I'm not sure where the innovation is.
