Because they hate their customers and want the mouse to become junk you have to replace when the mouse goes dead. It’s a finesse in planned obsolescence, same as the first time.
Agreed. They make sleek, flashy products for a reason- shiny = better. It’s not so much a case of making products that die easily, as it is making incremental upgrades that encourage big spenders to get the latest version.
I’m pretty system-agnostic, each cult has its flaws, but one thing Apple does not do is make crappy hardware. My last MacBook was still going strong after 6 years, my partner’s Air is pushing eight. My iPod Video has been replaced by my phone, but last I turned it on, it was working fine, must be over ten years old.
