Imagine how many they hope to sell to schools. These things are gonna be in the shop for repairs all the time. Making them easy to repair is better for the consumer, but better for Apple, too.
I used to repair iBooks for schools, this will indeed be fantastic!
Not just schools. Parents. Now my kids won’t have to suffer with a Chromebook.
Wow, the keyboard isn’t riveted to the body anymore. They’re really going above and beyond.
They’ve set the standard so low that this thing gets them praise.
Good strategy?? From Apple?? That was NOT on any of my metaphorical bingo cards.
This is an exceptionally low bar to hurdle.
You sound happy. Job done!
Perhaps my joke came off as caustic and I’m pleased that they may be changing course (pressing X to doubt a bit here). FWIW I have 2 MBP at home and 1 at work. I like MacOS over Windows any day, but I’m a realist, not an Apple fanboi. That doesn’t negate the fact that macbooks have been essentially unserviceable for the last 10+ years without specialist equipment or exceedingly costly parts. That’s an objective, easily verifiable statement with repairability ratings all over the internet (linked to Rossman for an example).
And while I recognize the sacasm, yes, I’m pretty happy most of the time! Thanks for that! In all seriousness - thanks and I hope you have a good day fellow surfer!
