how big deal is this?
(serious question)
- asiekierka 13y agoApple Legal is just going to C&D them and the leaker.
- sargun 13y agoYou can't stop the signal. But to answer the original question, this really isn't very interesting.
- X-Istence 13y agoNot a big deal at all. Schematics only show how to connect the various bits and pieces. Maybe there is one or two things that were secret before, but anyone with a little time, a scope, a voltage meter and some time could have figured out how most of it connected anyway.
- welterde 13y agoAnd they also show what those bits and pieces are, which is actually quite a big deal, because the components often have non-helpful labels on them (like "Apple" "some internal ID"), which makes it almost impossible to find datasheets on them or source them (say you want to replace a component on the board that you suspect is broken). So not really sure what would have been a big deal if not this..
- renanbirck 13y agoI don't think this is a big deal at all. It's not like you can build a Mac from scratch just by following those schematics. At most they might be useful for someone looking to do reverse engineering.
