I don’t think AppleInsider understands the entry-level market.
Using an external drive is a non-starter for most people; they will pay a cloud storage subscription through. So buying a laptop with less storage only makes sense if you’re using Cloud for storage (or you have low needs to start with). 
Same thing for the processor, if you buy entry level what do you care about benchmark scores? What you care about is future-proofing. How long will the computer receive updates? Will it still run new software in 5, 8 years?
From that perspective you want the M3 MacBook Air over the higher-specced M2.

Current phones are too big for the pocket. I hope that comes to be, although it feels a little unlikely. 

Complain all you want about the fines, I envy the EU users who have access to more software than I do.

The EC once again shows how clueless grandstanding politicians can cause havoc. The EC taking lefts and rights from Apple, Meta and now Microsoft. The only way to beat these ignorant folks is to band together and that’s what looks like is exactly happening. Nice!

The EC is a big risk to Global Security as this bad update could easily have been malicious.
Microsoft should let EC demands apply to the EU and not the whole world.

I hope Apple does not give in to their stupid demands.
Apple should sell the watered down versions of their products in the EU.
People who want the full products can buy from the UK and other non EU countries. 

Apple already gave in to the demands. Third-party solutions have the same access as Apple built-in solutions for malware and virus protection. 

Is that the real Apple TV that Jobs mentioned as Apple “finally cracked” the UI?
