There was a time not long ago when it seemed like Apple spent more time telling its customers what they<\/em> wanted rather than just giving it to them. <\/p>\n

Convenient features like SD card slots, HDMI ports, and a traditional laptop keyboard were unceremoniously booted from MacBooks in favor of USB-C and a disastrous butterfly keyboard<\/a> paired with a divisive OLED touch bar. Apple\u2019s professionally focused Mac Pro was given a space-efficient cylindrical redesign that failed at the basic task<\/a> of keeping power-hungry components (like those a professional user might actually need) cool.<\/p>\n

But with yesterday\u2019s announcements, which include the powerful and port-rich Mac Studio and a new monitor that costs a fraction of the price of Apple\u2019s previous attempt, Apple is now consistently doling out consumer-friendly features its fans have been calling for. <\/p>\n
