@fourish Apple created the Apple Vision Pro for roughly four thousand euro’s. At best 1 million people were waiting for this inspiring device.
They could make a really good printer for €500. About 50 million people would be really interested just to get rid of the never-ending hassle.
A revenue of €25 billion euros in about three years would be easily achievable. Apparently, having your own ‘next big thing’ was more important for Apples decision makers.
But printers are a dying breed. That’s not apple’s target market. They’re trying to look a few decades into the future not the past. That’s scraps for the dog.
@fourish Fair point.
