      The only thing left after Apple decided Mac servers was no longer a business they cared about.

      I would assume if it didn't take the enterprise world by storm, it would be enough sales for Mac only shops.

        Mac mini is probably the highest value for money Mac have ever existed in history of Apple. It really should have taken enterprise world by storm.

        Except macOS and Apple's team doesn't seems to care about Mac anymore. They could have worked hard and attack the 1.5B Windows PC market and the few hundred millions of Chromebook market.

        Instead it was all iPhone and Services.

          You are absolutely correct and in the end it’s all about their profits. How often do people change their computers but on the other hand, how many times you can “influence” people into upgrading their phones? Well many..

          Yes, another example is the Mac Pro, they also gave up on the workstation market.

          The day XCode is made fully available on iPadOS, you can imagine where it ends.

          The base model is great value but the upgrade pricing still throws that out of the window unfortunately. Just doubling the base RAM and SSD capacity doubles the cost of the entire machine, it's as if they're giving the SOTA processor away for free and making all their money on the storage.
