Apple’s iPhone lineup is selling well, but the Mac is in a serious rough patch
www.theverge.com
Mac revenue was down 34 percent year over year.

Mac sales are down.

I’m really not surprised. They are just a bit too expensive once you start upgrading the storage and ram.

I have been holding out on buying a Mac since the M2 was rumored to come out.

I keep hoping that the base model will have a larger amount of storage and ram, but it does not.

They keep selling faster processors, but I do not need that, I need more storage and I’d like more ram.

At this point, I’m just going to buy a used M1 air. If Apple had 512 and 26 standard on the base air, I’d pickup a new one today.

Do you disagree? What can Apple do to increase Mac sales?

      The hardware seems pretty good recently.

      Excellent battery life and performance. Maybe not the best laptop for gaming but it’s great for other shit. They are fairly expensive (and very expensive if you want more storage) though.

      I would never buy one because I don’t think I would like Mac OS, so I would probably just buy a ThinkPad and install Linux instead.

      I won’t buy a laptop any time soon because laptop prices are insane and my X280 is good enough, I just wish it had more RAM.
