As the other person said, it's been 9 months since the m2.

You don't need to defend Apple here. They'll be fine. It's OK to question this.

Why should anyone care how often a business sells a newer product?

Well it's frustrating that basically no matter how close you buy a device to launch it's almost immediately invalidated. I got an M2 max 3 months ago and it's already last gen...

What is the definition of invalidated? I am assuming your machine is still capable at doing what it did 3 months ago.

My guess: It’s not the shiniest, newest toy model anymore. Many people want the latest greatest just for the sake of having it.

I do understand my machine is still (more than) capable. But it is frustrating when the release cycle is so rapid, it's not just a desire for 'latest and greatest', it's an almost immediate loss of bang for buck unless you buy it basically immediately.

They released the M2 max less than a year ago.

I wasn’t defending anything, I didn’t realise it was that recent. Way to assume, though. Really engaging in good faith, mate.
