    Not sure what you're talking about, a whole lot of people use MacBooks, I don't think their market share dropped significantly. Desktop Macs, sure maybe but I think even that won't completely die out.

        I'm not sure if that'll happen any time soon, they'd lose out on the IT professionals, audio professionals etc.

        I got one just this year and it certainly doesn't feel like an iPad at all.

          You got a desktop or MacBook? Macbook pro is pretty nice but i dont see a future for osx or desktop. And while i agree some real professionals might keep using it for another decade but the vast majority of Adobe professionals will be replaced by other tech like AI or nuke artists etc

            I got a MacBook Pro M2. It's a good piece of hardware, MacOS was kinda annoying at first since it's my first MacBook but I got the hang of it and it's basically a normal desktop environment to me right now and I can't see that changing significantly in the near future, I don't think AI is gonna move that fast as to completely eliminate the need for typical PC desktop environments.

              I stopped using it over ten years ago and dont look back at crap like quarkxpress or the finder. Only contact with osx i have now is old people with macbooks that have troubles with user permissions and Safari. Desktop PC can strive but i doubt mac desktop or osx will be part of that.
