Remember when Bill Gates became tech’s enemy number one? How about when Google was not going to be evil? How about when Steve Jobs convinced us that “it just works”? Or when Elon Musk was going to save the world? We want to blame these hi

It would have been a really pleasant (and highly unlikely) surprise if Apple also re-introduced the plain old "Mac" at $1499-$1999 using prosumer-grade SKUs and PCIe expandability. Think of it as a big brother to the Mac mini -
