I read a much better article about Ive’s work and how hard he made it for Mac/Apple users to make repairs and additions on their own. You missed that big part, in my opinion. And not allowing outside vendors to do repairs? That remains poor policy. Most so-called “Geniuses” should be called instead “Maniacs” and have harmed more than hurt my MacBook Pro at times. I turned to my favorite IT Mac guy — he made it right. AND I had AppleCare. I still like Apple products — so there’s that.
