        Everything since the M1. Mind blowing hype, graphs that seem shocking at announcement. Data that comes in below these graphs, then owing to the extremely high walls of the garden, a sigh and shoulder shrug at what you can do with the technology, because although cool and seemingly very powerful, you just can’t do much with it because of apples buisness philosophy.

          Then buy similar hardware from a competitor that meets your needs. I mean, Apple was never innovative, so you surely can get something better somewhere else?

            That wasn’t stated by this person, no? It is a common fallacy to disprove a claim that wasn’t made.

              The user only stated they can’t think of a use-case for the hardware, and therefore innovation is useless. They don’t even have to use it.

    Top sku iPad pros with the keyboard case cost more than some MacBooks and people try and use them like MacBooks, which is crazy to me given the severe limitations of iPadOS compared to macOS.
