Interesting to see how Apple is leaving the PC. I remember another company going for phones only - and it was the biggest in the world.
Today Nokia does barely exist anymore.

I would leave a sensible computer in the portfolio because times change...

It all is way to expensive so I would not go for any of it but Apple has a lot of followers and it might not be enough to only have phones to manipulate them with,,,,
