It irritates me how Apple changes the hardware of their iconic designs by 1cm or whatever causing millions of accessories to become obsolete. Apple should standardize Apple products.

For example

All iPads are the same size
All iPad Minis are the same size
All iPad Pro are the same size
All large iPad Pro are the same size.

Same for iPhones, Watch, Macs etc.

Of course nothing would be perfect but it seems Apple does this sh** on purpose.

I can see someone complaining that they cannot find their keys because the keys are at the bottom of a lake. You cannot get the radio waves to go through the water.

Well not the ones that Apple is using right now, but if they started using a form of sonar like animals use, then maybe.

If you need to run Windows then buy a Windows PC.

Sounds simple to you, doesn’t it? Thing is, I don’t want to have TWO computers to maintain.

Unfortunately, gaming on Macs is nowhere near the level of gaming on Windows. It used to be that we could have a Mac for both Mac OS and Windows. That was cool. The setup didn’t need to be 100% equal to a Windows PC in performance, just be comparable.

Sadly, there hasn’t been a suitable desktop Mac in almost a decade (GPU, heat, etc). Now Apple is moving away from Macs even being able to run intel Windows software at all. Result: own two computers again (consoles can bite my shiny metal ass).

It would be nice if Apple at least sold a standalone display [for an affordable headless workstation-class desktop], so that when I finally can buy a new gaming PC (GPU shortages & pricing are insane), I don’t ALSO need to have TWO displays on my already-crowded desk. Guess I need to find a usable USB KVM switch, soon. Most affordable KVM switches I’ve seen are trash and the well-built ones are rarely happy to work cross-platform & USB.
