Reactions to yesterday’s keynote have, as usual, been mixed – but there has been a distinctly disappointed note to much of it. In particular, those not following the rumors as closely as 9to5Mac readers have expressed frustration at the lack of hardware announcements. One Reddit thread along these lines was at 1550 comments and counting at the time of writing.
Who needs hardware when you get emojis?
RIP Mac Pro
What have we done to anger the apple hardware gods? Do we need to sacrifice an apple II ?
This is really really disappointing. Unbelievable that the rMBP hasn’t been updated in over a year and the prices have stayed the same.
Others weren’t happy about what they saw as the limited focus on Macs in general, one commenting that ‘they spent longer on iMessage than they did on macOS.’ But despite the lack of hardware, and of major surprises in general, my view is that yesterday’s announcements didn’t disappoint &hell
