Let Apple know that the Mac is still very much a viable market and they can make up for years of neglect if they work fast.
So if there ever is a time that you have Apple’s attention, it’s now. They predicted only 1-2 million batteries would have been replaced. That was something that they should have factored correctly. They didn’t predict that the Xs and XR would not sell as well as they thought, and they surely didn’t predict that they would be replacing 11 million iPhone batteries in 2018. This is the first time I have seen a little panic in Apple’s behavior. Sure they talk about services making up the difference, but I read a good article showing that services won’t be as profitable as the lost sales of iPhones. The Mac market may not be as lucrative as iPhone, but I’m surprised they never had a contingency plan if the whole smartphone market plateaued. I always thought it was a mistake to only focus on iPhone since you don’t put all your eggs in one basket.
Now is the time to put pressure on Apple to allow Nvidia to create drivers for Mohave.Īfter they report earnings on the 29th, they will have to have a clearer roadmap of what is going to happen this year in regards to products and services.
