So I am looking at Windows 11, preinstalled spyware and at the force-feeding of AI in everything.

And I see an Apple that tries to keep a product functional and mostly working despite every writer, corpocrat and stockholder demanding that Apple pisses into the product by needlessly moving the cheese, integrating AI or otherwise messing with what is the last actually usable computer (as opposed to corporate spyware and ad delivery system).

What kind of "innovation" would people like to see in a Macbook or Mac mini that would be actually useful? This is a mature product. You buy it and use it for five years, then you buy the next. And it will hopefully not have changed that much in this time, because it wasn't broken nor deficient.
