Now that he's gone, I too welcome efforts to reexamine designs that favor form over function.

I want tough, nimble, powerful, lightweight kit.

But can we stop the race toward paper thin laptops?

Hopefully. The main push behind all that, I assume, has left Apple, so…

I think what we see in 1-2 months might be telling. I’d be completely fine watching a brand new product announcement/unveiling without one second spent telling us how much thinner it is compared to the previous model. I truly don’t give a shit at this point. Nothing in Apple’s lineup is bloated or unsightly, so let’s pull back a bit from that race to nothingness. It’s gotten silly.
