Almost 5 years ago, Apple introduced a laptop that blew everyone away.
- walthamstow 1y agoBlew everyone in tech away, myself included. Nobody else noticed. From what I can gather they sold a few million units of the M1 Air. It's not a very big market.

- mcphage 1y agoFair enough, but it was still enough of a technical marvel that to say Apple 5 years ago was already broken, was silly.
- Ylpertnodi 1y agoInclude me out, please.
- whywhywhywhy 1y agoYeah after the 5 years where their main laptop model had a keyboard that became unresponsive within weeks, had a charger and power system that couldn’t even cold boot the machine it needed to sit there and pre-charge before it could boot itself, ran hot, ran slow, ran noisy. I know we all love the post-M1 MacBooks but it’s increasingly obvious that machine is the exception to the decline of everything else including the laptop line until M1 redesign saved it.
- lotsofpulp 1y agoWhile they definitely had or have organizational problems (which organization does not?), it seems quite hyperbolic to state >decline of everything else They were still pumping out very usable AirPods/Apple TV/Watch/Phone/Macbook Airs/Air Tags. Siri sucks (always has), and they have had some big misses, but the stuff that 90% of the population uses 90% of the time chugs along perfectly fine.
