Apple is no longer hip because since Steve Jobs died there is no one left at the company who can say "NO" to stupid decisions. Why that fucking butterfly keyboard was ever approved and is now in its third revision is beyond belief. Apple did correct their mistakes a few times in the past, such as putting the click wheel back on the fourth-generation iPod shuffle, but since Tim Cook probably uses a butterfly keyboard maybe once a month at best, he's not even aware of how terrible that keyboard is and how prone to failure it can be (even with that stupid condom that will trap the dust under the keys thus making sure it will fail at some point.
