Apple requests return of Apple Silicon Developer Transition Kits, offers $200 toward purch...
A DTK is collecting dust on my desk. So I'm happy to return it. But it wasn't very useful. I only had it five months. I submitted one bug. One of Apple's own command line apps segment faulted out of box. I never heard back.
I already bought an M1 airbook to chase down the problem and see if slightly different hardware made it go away. Nope. The bug affected both A12Z and M1. So ouch. A coupon totally sucks unless Apple is willing to apply it retroactively to the airbook.
I'm guessing this might affect participation in Apple's next "you pay us to QA or stuff" opportunity.
