I remember the reactions when the first M1 macbook actually landed in people's hands and honestly can't remember a single one which wasn't at least 'well I'll be damned this is actually ok' - and the great majority was 'this is a revolutionary device'.

This kinda never happens in football, sorry ^_^

Yes, exactly. The people who use things like them. It was the same with the iPad. The ones who bought them loved them. But the groupies were booing all the way into it dominating that market sector.

These people, nominally technology enthusiasts, appreciate very little.
