"Apple doesn't care about the Mac anymore" is the overarching narrative that's been tossed around over the last few years.
There's some truth to the sentiment, even if you're a long-time Apple user and Mac supporter.
The MacBook's still too underpowered, overpriced, and still only has a single USB-C port. The new MacBook Pros force you into dongle hell (http://mashable.com/2016/10/28/macbook-pro-dongle-hell/) and if you get the Touch Bar model (http://mashable.com/2016/11/14/macbook-pro-with-touch-bar-review/), it's still **t clear what value the OLED touch strip really brings or why anyone should pay extra for it. And let's **t even talk about why the MacBook Air hasn't gotten any meaningful update in years.
Things aren't better for Apple's desktop Macs. The trash can-shaped Mac Pro (http://mashable.com/2014/03/14/mac-pro-review/) was such an utter failure that Apple had to essentially admit it screwed up big time (http://mashable.com/2017/04/04/apple-reveals-mac-pro-imac-plans/). It's very clear Apple doesn't care about the Mac mini (it hasn't been updated in almost three years) and if **t for a recent update to the iMac, you'd have thought Apple didn't care about it either, since it was last updated nearly two years ago.
