Seriously. Those Apple guys became delusional especially after Jobs passed away. These guys just sat on their successes and did nothing for a decade plus. M1 was nice but that was all Jobs doing and planning. I don’t like this Apple. They forgot how to innovate.

But I guess we have a VR device nobody wants.

It would be funny if you were typing out your response on an iPhone that has been running for 36 hours without recharging.

M1 was launched 9 years after Jobs died. You're saying they had everything ready to go back then and just sat on their asses for a decade?

Who bought Semi? Jobs knew they had to make their own. M1 is just a product of their iPhone chips hence all the efficiency.

Ok, but did you ever think about PA Semi being the Alpha guys? Maybe the DEC leadership deserves credit for M1

Jobs knew they had to make their own chips, and in your mind that constitutes "all the doing and planning"?

Unless one constantly browses Instagram or TikTok, they do.

I said “[Jobs’] doing and planning” whereas you make it sound like Semi and M1 have nothing to do with Jobs. Apple has M1 because Jobs had a vision. Tell me one thing Apple did since Jobs’ passing that show such a vision. Maybe Watch? Hardly ground breaking. VR? ‘nuff said.

Didn't Jobs himself essentially die of delusion?
