apple should go back to their classic logo

minimalism and thinness-for-thinnness-sake has been played out: everything looks the same and is devoid of personality.

People want personality back:

Physical media is making a comeback too (including books)

The colors look beautiful on the car. Hopefully a Ternus-lead Apple will find the courage to adorn the Macbook Pro line with six colors.

I would bet there's so much pent up demand for properly colored macbooks. What's the argument against it – SKU explosion?

I had an IT job where I got to replace ink in enterprise printers and the tactility was great. I completely understand the convenience of always plugged in and connected drives, but for some media it would be great to have some clicks or tactility when plugging things in, and having more plug and play storage options. I miss the days of plugging in a “thing” which holds a defined media or set of media. Game disks and cartridge support on PC, even if it isn’t practical, would be great to see

The absolute, very last complaint that I have with Apple's brand right now is their logos. They can abandon minimalism once they're done worshiping authoritarianism, until then they don't deserve it.

Not if you add it to the price.
