Users with non-Apple devices can join using the latest version of Chrome or Edge.(big issue might be the likely end of non App Store installs and the big saas push, but this another issue).īy the end of this transition, we will have hyper powerful machines running something spectacular, that we will maybe call Macs, but that will likely be as different from the Mac as the Mac was from the Apple II series. so what remains of the Mac from where i stand is essentially the name.

Steve Jobs said it himself, platforms peak and die. What we have coming technically is better than anything Apple has done without a doubt, and perhaps it makes sense to sacrifice the Mac era for this new profitable and exciting iOS based platform. as we shift paradigm to touch, the Mac as it has been since its inception is simply gone. the Mac started with, and much because, of the mouse. just what we will have is iOS's and iDevices take of an old paradigm we once called Macintosh.

and this is not bad, from a financial and technological point of view it is not only understandable but actually very exciting. What we will have soon is a touch-based OS rebranded Mac.
