I don't even understand the functional purpose of the rivets if the keyboard is already held in place with a million screws and the key slots cut into the aluminum frame. It makes no sense, seems like a waste.
- brokenmachine 6mo agoCan you not see why they might be incentivized to make it unrepairable?
- docmars 6mo agoOh definitely, I'm no stranger to Apple's antics... but usually they're pretty particular about hardware decisions serving a functional purpose, and not just a way to protect their bottom line. They aren't exactly struggling to sell their stuff.
- brokenmachine 6mo agoTheir marketing is pretty particular, when it suits them. Their actions show something completely different. Everything is about protecting their jailed garden. It took the EU to force them to grudgingly use USB-C.
