Apple always makes incredibly beautiful internal designs - for themselves, not the users.
But also, it's hard to think of products that are nice on the outside but ugly on the inside. I suspect it's because some people care and some don't, and both inside and outside reflect that.
HP and Microsoft have both made some pretty looking laptops recently, but they are a complete and utter mess on the inside.
They seem to design their products for Cupertino weather , specifically the weather inside their spaceship lab and fake model homes. Or is just good ol’ “planned attrition”..
I find all these comments here very strange indeed.
The Mac Studio is a desktop. Like any other desktop from any other manufacturer it is intended for use indoors in a typical home or office environment.
If you require a device that works outside of "normal" parameters then there are specialist industrial PC manufacturers who will build you something that will deal with humidity, dust, vibration and temperature extremes.
99.999999999999999999% of people on this planet do not require the extra mechanical designs (and associated expense) of an industrial PC.
Hence Apple and every other commodity PC manufacturer on this planet designs for the typical home or office.
Edit to add:
Look at the Mac Studio specs:
- Operating temperature: 10° to 35° C (50° to 95° F)
- Storage temperature: –40° to 47° C (–40° to 116° F)
- Relative humidity: 5% to 90% non-condensing
- Operating altitude: tested up to 5,000 metres (16,400 feet)
Its 10° C inside your house / office ?!?
I wish their software and UI teams were this unrushed (or time-efficient).
I switched back to macOS after having been away for 13 years and I felt right at home. System Apps and Settings generally are and worked the same. Sure the UI might have have changed a bit but mostly by repositioning things or adding a feature. Almost everything I learned about the UI 15 years ago still applies. The disk encryption and firewall settings were still in the same place, same goes for the touchpad and everything else.
It was the total opposite to the Windows 11 VM I set up after. The settings app had a major redesign again and instead of relying on my memory I had to use the search function after failing to find some settings.
