Apple just kicked Fortnite off the App Store

Let’s be honest, this has been coming for a while, like the ever increasing length, irritation and regularity of YouTube ads, Apple has been training you to accept an App Store only Mac. My guess is the Arm Macs will knock everyone’s socks off with freakish thinness, unreal battery life and performance, be extremely cheap and completely lock down the computer to Apple taking 30% of every piece of software you purchase and Apple being the only way to install software.

I don't think Apple want to be seen as a producer of cheap products.

But I agree, there is a risk that Apple locks down its platform even more.

There are rumours the new Macbook will be $799, them being cheaper with the same profit margin means Apple makes more money. So still not cheap but extremely good value rather than premium pricing will sell more units.
