Even watchOS is dead and developers have pretty much abandoned that platform. 

The Apple Watch is pretty popular, even if it remains mostly an accessory for the iPhone. If developers aren't developing for watchOS, that's on Apple not making it easy enough or profitable enough. Remember the early iPhone had no 3rd party developers, but once the App Store got rolling, 3rd party development took off.

Apple needs to figure out what the "killer app" is for the Vision Pro, the way Desktop Publishing was for the early Macintosh. Moving native apps over is nice, but kind of beside the point, because if you can do the thing on another device, why buy a pricey Vision Pro? Apple can try to reduce the price (hopefully without lowering the quality) and they can acknowledge that it is a "hobby project" at this point and just keep it alive until the technology gets cheaper and better, but 3rd party developers aren't going to take the risk until there's a bigger user base, and without a killer app that grows the user base, there isn't a reason for most people to buy this device.

Well that's only fair. iOS is ruining what makes the Mac special.

Does anyone really want that?! My graphic designers have the biggest screens in the office.

I used to like the old iMac glowing power button on the front. When in sleep mode, it pulsed.

This may be a challenge for computer labs where security enclosures are needed. Accessing that button could prove difficult.

And if we go waaaay back, the power button on the keyboard was also slick.
