Does anyone want a thinner computer? The I9s have thermal issues, the butterfly keyboard break in 12 months. Why don’t they focus on real innovation like adding faceId or Oled HDR screens. Apple is going to spite us all and replace the keyboard with an oled magic bar.


I mean, if I could have a magical fairy computer that was as thin as a piece of paper but had the keyboard of a 2015 MBP, and decent performance and battery life, yeah, I'd think that was pretty great.

What I'm not willing to do is make any drastic usability sacrifices in exchange for more thinness.


That fairy would need to use some seriously arcane magic to make such a device not bend and tear like paper too. Although I don't think that would bother Apple much at this point.

Started in 3-4 months for me...
