I'm still on original battery in mid-2009 13-inch MacBook Pro running 10.6. I believe I'm around 400 cycles; the computer has been giving me "Service Battery" warning for last few years. There were a few years in middle that it didn't get much use, but last couple of years it has been used regularly for taking notes and writing stories. A fully charged battery yields about 5-5 1/2 hours of use with screen mostly dimmed and wifi off. Keep on Rocking in the Mac World!

Personally, I think Apple's efforts will be moot if it does not deliver the very best user experience possible for a modest premium, and a clearly delineated simple product line. You know, do what Jobs did. Steve had a great vision, yes; but he also knew how to make customers passionate for Apple. That kind of goodwill cannot be bought; it can only be earned. That's why I no longer have passion for Apple. Tim Cook killed it with his focus on delivering outstanding shareholder returns over excellence. Sigh.

...personally, I think you're high. I have a brand new iMac, an iPhone X, an iPad Pro, AirPods, HomePods, MBP, etc... And they're all the best versions of these devices I've ever owned, I'd never switch them. They deliver excellence, despite your claims otherwise.

Hey, hey, don't impugn high people; they enjoy savory Apple products as much as low people ... possibly more.

We used to look forward to G5 laptops; now we may have hankering for 5G. What an age.

Burn.

I don't think this qualifies as air conditioning. AC lowers humidity in addition to providing cool air. This doodad would seem to do neither save whatever cool air might be trapped in one's garments. I'm also wondering what happens to generated heat. I don't read Japanese so the website wasn't much help.
