So far everything that they talk about is ALWAYS 12- >15 months away... Time for a change?? What's the big complaint here? When the consumer demand for low-cost macs gained momentum, Apple lowered prices on the SE's and Plus's. Of course, then people got the wrong idea, and started buying LESS Pluses. So now Apple is developing 2-3 low cost Mac models. But I think it's unreasonable to expect a company to develop a machine that will please people in only the matter of a few months... a year sounds pretty normal for development of a new model. I'd say Apple has been responding to consumers rather well lately... not Great, but well.... more than other companies... - Chris ._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._.._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._.
