Three disappointing things about Mac Studio and Studio Display

[George Dawes]

1. Noise
2. Design
3. Price of ultra

Those are my 3 problems and why I’ll go for an m1 mini instead .

I keep my boxes for years.

I do too, in fact the box I use to store old boxes in is my old cheese grater Mac Pro box.

I don't fondle the boxes on a regular basis though, the kit comes out the box, the box goes in the big storage box and then years later, it comes out again when the kit goes back in the box.

Thats a fair point of course but is it really necessary to go there? ie. do you not get annoyed (I assume here) that these days we get labels etc. for everything? When I was a kid and I slipped because I didn't watch where I was going my mum would tell me off for not looking and would say : you should have pay attention to your walking.
Nowadays, if there is no yellow cone etc. you sue people.

You can get cut on a sheet of paper so by your logic should we 'redesign' that sheet of paper to avoid injuries? Or should we just use the thing we have on our necks and just use common sense?

So yeah, I care about the design a lot and I feel the product is excellent. The packaging is also insanely nice.
Would it make you feel better if it had a warning saying: " Please be careful, its paper and it can cut you"?

:-D :-D :-D

The same thing could be said another way.
Its pathetic that today’s generation doesn’t care about good design, especially designed to avoid injuries.

If you want to discuss the topic, give out your reasoning and we can have a discussion. Meanwhile what you are saying really don’t add value.

This will be the end of my reply to you.

Keep on. All I can do is SMH at the comments about the packaging.

It seems to me that the Mac Studio packaging has been pretty explicitly designed to minimize packaging and un-recyclable waste, while still providing shipping protection and a novel unboxing experience. If that isn't great packaging design, I don't know what is.
