Geez, 15 years ago on this day in 2007 Steve Jobs introduced the iPhone. Hard to believe so much has changed in such a short time. Things we take so much for granted today were just like a scifi story back then. Love it or hate it Apple truly changed the world in ways we can never go back to, nor would we want to when it comes right down to it.

While I‘m a big fan of Apple products more often than not, their unique “T2 Chip” feature, added to most Macs back in 2018, needs to be rethought a bit so as not to keep creating thousands of worthless Mac bricks that no can really make use of. Really not cool Apple!!!
