Blah, blah, blah...weekly "update" of something people are going to forget to give a shit about by the time it actually comes out, etc.

But I saw something even more interesting:

Apple surveys customers on 12" MacBook...what they liked, didn't like, etc.

Story says they sometimes do this on products, but do they do so on things they discontinued two years ago and no longer make?

So are they planning to bring back a 12" MacBook of some sort? Maybe a 12" and (redesigned) 14" Air in the next 12-18 months? I saw a rumor a few weeks ago about a redesigned MacBook Air coming in 2022. And there is precedent on two sizes of the lower-end, consumer-oriented notebook...they solid those exact sizes of MacBook (or was it iBook?) years ago. So maybe they're thinking about fanless, "notebook for the rest of us" MacBook Air in 12" and 14" at some point, and then the 14" and 16" Pros (in whatever century they get released).
