I'm not talking about Applenova. Well, sort of, indirectly.

The latest revenue revision from Apple, while they seem to want to blame it on China exclusively, does seem to tally with a generally perceived slowdown on Apple's products.

I know I, and many people I know who are into this stuff, are finding that we just don't buy stuff at the same rate as we once did. My iPhone 8 is fine - I would normally be anxious to swap it by now, but I'm really not. My 2015 MBP is, in my opinion, a better machine than anything they sell at present all told, so I won't be replacing that anytime soon.

Is Apple falling victim to the slowdown in computer hardware advances, and their own quality and product longevity? Are you buying Apple things less frequently than you once did?
