I always thought “You’ll pry MS Office from my cold dead hands” but these days 98% of what I use it for is handled by Google Docs. (It helps that almost all docs I care about are internal and began life in Google Docs.)

Also Google seems to have discovered a revolutionary technology called a “keyboard” where you mechanically actuate a switch and it results in a character of input to your machine. Apple should steal that.

lol I don't get the keyboard bit. Is that a knock on the super-low action of the newish Apple keys? (Currently typing from one of those keyboards, and still not used to it on week 2)

It’s a complaint that the keyboard is finicky, lets specs of dust cause either no key press or multiple key presses, and has a MTBF which is absurdly less than that of the machine.
