I’ve no doubt had a hand in the overall shape amd thinness. 

But there is no way he signed off on the power brick. 

There is so much room inside the new enclosure that the brick contents could be expanded and shielded. - especially since they decided to use a chin to house the SOC. 

Steve Jobs would not have went with the brick littering the floor idea. Neither would I’ve. 

It seems some questionable design choices have come along since Ive’s role changed. 

Big Sur has some unfortunate design choices as does the new iMac. 

One of the biggest pluses in Apple design is that they know when to say “no” to things. 

The fact that there is now a brick that just literally plops unceremoniously on your floor, littering it, is a definite sign that this is being forgotten. 

Hopefully they remember this and fix it. This is Apple. They have a rich heritage in figuring things out better than anyone else. But the whole brick thing just screens cheap, tacky, and very Microsoft or Dell-like. 

Here’s hoping I’ve had more of a hand in the forthcoming iMac Pro amd MacBook Pro designs.

This looks very different from patent troll lawsuits. This is a real company making stuff. It’s not a stolen idea. The App Store approval and API issues affecting AliveCor’s product sound like a legit reason to investigate.

Apple behaves like a dictator with their tech and then they wonder, why can't they beat an OS that comes with ads built-in, and has dialog boxes from over 20 years ago.

Microsoft LOST in making knockoff iPhones. Had Microsoft won the iKnockoff market their tune would be different.

What a shi* company after all the respect Apple is giving them on iPhone/iPad. Time for Apple to take office Apps seriously and kill Microsoft.

Microsoft teaming up against Apple playing dirty.

What a small minded way of thinking. They need each other and Microsoft is just as important and powerful as Apple. You take MS apps off of the Apple store, people will get other devices that have MS as their businesses run off of MS. 

In fact, if you took Google, Microsoft and some of the other top ranked and used apps off of the Apple store, Apple would tank fast. No matter what YOU think, the world runs off of them and needs them and nothing Apple has can replace that as of now.
