Yes, a surprising article with some muddled logic (“locker room talk”? Huh?). And the tone is a bit dismissive of Apple’s recent troubles with the i9 processor. (“Non-engineer YouTubers”) Example: In another story published by AI, Apple actually worked with the “non-engineer” to apparently resolve the issue. 

Most AI readers don’t really care about Samsung, Microsoft, etc. offerings, so why the paranoia? Is it to stifle legitimate criticism by AI readers on Apple? Methinks so. 

And lastly, where is the updated Mac Mini? Cook promised and update. “It’s in our future” Remember. Which future?

For starters, I think we can look at the Macbook i9 controversy now in hindsight seeing as though it has been resolved. An issue was reported and it was resolved rather quickly and trivially with a software update. How much of a big deal do you think we should make of this? Was a product recall required? No? Then what's your point? Also, I'm fairly certain you don't speak for "most AI readers". For that matter, if you weren't interested in the article, why did you read it? Sure, Daniel's articles involve a fair amount of Apple cheer leading, but calling out other dopes in the media like those who write for the Verge sits well with me. Especially when these articles have verifiable supporting data.

You lost people when you suggested that Apple relied on the Youtuber's skills to identify and fix the bug when all they did was to work with him to try and reproduce the problem, which he had trouble doing, so they could resolve it. No insult intended towards him, but he obviously had no idea what the problem was or how to fix it, just that he had experienced a problem, which sometimes occurred

I may have lost you; but not “people. Re-read my post.

What’s the purpose of this editorial? Did someone recently write a pro-Microsoft article that bashed Apple? How about writing an Apple editorial instead. Like maybe one saying their laptop line is a bit of a mess right now and the MBA, MB and non-TB MBP should be combined into one device. Or with regards to desktops either update the Mac mini or discontinue it already.

What’s the purpose of your whining every time DED publishes a new editorial in his regular column? You sound insecure.

You lost bro?

I enjoyed this editorial piece. And despite your claim, we discuss these brands every week. 

Please quote when Cook said they’d get you a new mini by. Thanks.
